Gordon Taffin who lives in the condo building that is impacted by this issue states that delivery trucks are blocking the garages, preventing residents from leaving. He states that the delivery trucks are typically stopped for 15-20 minutes. Seeberg states that the change makes perfect sense. He asks if the temporary sign should be replaced with a more permanent sign and who would put this sign up. Hynes states that a temporary sign is posted currently for giving delivery drivers direction. He states that the no parking, stopping, or standing signs would be enforceable. Zook states that those signs would be enforceable. Hynes states that when the development to the north redevelops, they will look at a more concrete location for deliveries. Hurley asks what the enforcement fines are and states that sometimes companies just pay the fine because it is easier for them. Zook states that the fines start at 25 dollars and go up each time. He states that after the 10th ticket, they can tow the vehicles. He will let the community service officer to be on the look out for this occurring.
