body
Statement of Issue:
The Huntington Beach Police Department has recognized a need to amend the Municipal Code to provide a more sustainable solution for individuals requiring a medical exemption for recreational vehicle use.
Financial Impact:
The proposed changes would not have a financial impact. The revision allows for a permanent solution to a recurring problem.
Recommended Action:
recommendation
Approve the introduction of Ordinance No. 4303, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Amending Chapter 10.44 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code Relating to Parking - Time Limits" to address special permits regarding parking time limits for recreational vehicles.

Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve, and direct staff accordingly.
