WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY City of Naperville Page 7 Printed on 10/17/2023 City Council Meeting Minutes October 3, 2023 Marilyn L Schweitzer (Naperville) - Please either table this item or do not pass it on it’s first reading. I get the gist of what is happening and the proposed concept to improve matters, but I think there may be circumstances that miss the mark. Perhaps it the ordinance could simply make it prohibitive for any person or persons to block the egress and ingress of vehicles, bicycles and persons who desire to use the garage.
