Ordinance 27840 which formally established the Parking Advisory Management Task Force in November 2010.
Duties and Responsibilities
The PTAG reviews current parking policies and how they impact current stakeholders. The PTAG periodically makes recommendations to the City Manager regarding needed changes for existing policies or establishing new policies needed to ensure that the parking system adheres to the adopted guiding principles.
Membership
PTAG consists of up to 12 volunteer members appointed by the City Manager. Each volunteer is appointed for a term of two years. The PTAG consists of business and property owners, large parking generators, residents and parkers.
