Summary

A request that parking staff place "no idling" signs behind Cobble Hill senior housing was discussed but deferred after the parking director was absent; mobility staff offered to respond in writing and the committee kept the item in committee for follow-up.

Chair Councilor Naima Syed asked the traffic and parking committee to consider a council order requesting that the parking department install “no idling” signage on New Washington Street behind the Cobble Hill complex to discourage truck idling near senior residences.

The committee did not make a final decision. Director Rawson of the Department of Mobility told the committee that signage of this type is installed by the parking department and that Parking Director Renfrew was not present. Rawson asked the committee to either keep the order in committee or allow the department to respond in writing to the committee and to the filing councilor.

Councilors agreed to keep the item in committee for a future update once the parking director could participate. The clerk confirmed that the item will be retained for a subsequent meeting.
