"CURBSTONLNG"
(PARKING OF VEHICLES
THROUGHOUT CITY FOR
DISPLAY OR SALE) Following introduction of the subject agenda item by City
Manager Peterson, Mr. Ray Glover, State President of the
CC -45(a) Independent Auto Dealers Association addressed the
Council. Mr. Glover presented a petition bearing the
signatures of approximately 20 owners or managers of
automobile dealers of the City of Lodi which reads as
follows:
"Re: Ordinance proposal prohibiting on street parking of
privately owned automobiles for sale purposes on public
property.
The undersigned automobile dealers of the City of Lodi are
in support of the establishment and enforcement of an
ordinance prohibiting on -street parking of privately owned
automobiles for sale purposes on public property.
We feel that allowing on street parking of cars for sale by
private individuals encourages profiteering by people who
engage in selling cars for a monetary gain on a continuing
basis. If a private party wishes to sell his/her vehicle,
it should be done on their premises, not on public streets.
We, the car dealers of Lodi, follow regulations from the
Division of Motor Vehicles, zoning, pollution control,
State Hoard of Equalization, and Consumer Affairs, in
addition to paying our fair share of taxes. Purchasing
automobiles for the "intent of resale" is against the law
unless you are a licensed car dealer. We urge you not to
provide a place that encourages profiteers to break the
law!"
Mr. Glover urged the adoption of a City ordinance
prohibiting the parking of cars on roadways or on private
property for sale purposes and provided Council with sample
language for such an ordinance.
Also addressing the Council regarding the subject were:
a) Mr. Darrel Geweke, 1045 S. Cherokee Lane, Lodi
b) Mrs. Oscar Hess, 838 Virginia, Lodi
c) Mr. Walter Pruss, 2421 Diablo Drive, Lodi

INTRODUCED City Attorney Stein reported that at the request of the

ci vehicles which are parked in a fire lane on public or
private property. Until this legislation was passed, only
the property owner could cause the removal of these
vehicles. In order to implement this procedure, it is
necessary that Council adopt an enforcing ordinance.
Following discussion, Council Member Snider moved
introduction of Ordinance No. 1384 - An Ordinance of the
Lodi City Council Establishing the Procedure for the
Removal by Peace Officers of Private Vehicles from Fire
Lanes. The motion was seconded by Mayor Pro Tempore Olson
and carried by a unanimous vote of the Council.

given testimony regarding the subject.

10.20.070 of the Lodi Municipal Code to Substitute the Word
