2017-02-01 Hearing Transcript - County Council Initiated Bill 256

Home

JACKSON: The fine usually starts at $500 for the initial violation and then there's a date that we give them to comply by, and then if there is recurring violations, it can be an additional fine. I believe that starts at like one, two, and three hundred depending on how many reoccurring violations there are. And, then there's also daily fines that would start at $100, and if they don't comply by that deadline, then we issue the daily fine of a $100. MIYASATO: Okay, thank you. HENKEL: Mr. Ikeda? IKEDA: Yes, you know, according to this bill, all rental units has to have a parking stall. Is that correct? Like if the tenant, I mean the owner had three parking stalls, they need fourI mean three rooms, they need four parking stalls. Is that correct? JACKSON: That's correct. IKEDA: And, all the cars have to be parked on the property. JACKSON: That's correct. IKEDA: So, okay, so I just wanted to make it clear so the people understand that if we should pass something like this, then that's what would happen. JACKSON: That's correct. I just want to clarify, though, that in this particular situation, I think part of the problem is that the homeowner has five vehicles of her own, so IKEDA: I understand, but JACKSON: so, even though the Code would require four parking stalls on site, she would still have, she, if parking is not prohibited on the street, she could park her other four vehicles on the street. IKEDA: I understand, but there have been problems where the visitors are parking on the street. So, this would eliminate so-called parallel parking or whatever. JACKSON: Yeah, it would eliminate people coming at night and not knowing how to park, yeah. HENKEL: Would it be appropriate for us to add a condition if we approve that, you know, three parking stalls for the customers, and one for the owner, and then that would be the total parking allowed. Is that what Mr. Ikeda just point out? Cause that's, it's not in there already. It just, it just says on the property they have to have four, but there's nothing in there about parking on the street. I just know that, you know, to park on the street, your car has to be licensed and inspected. JACKSON: Right. EXHIBIT B 13
