Background:
The City of Broken Arrow seeks to enhance operational efficiency and accessibility at City Hall and other municipal facilities by designating reserved parking spaces for specific city officials. These reserved spaces will ensure that key officials have reliable access to parking, facilitating the timely performance of essential governmental duties. The proposed ordinance amends Chapter 23 of the Broken Arrow Municipal Code to authorize the designation of reserved parking spaces, establish clear signage requirements, and permit enforcement through citations and towing of unauthorized vehicles, in compliance with Oklahoma Statutes, Title 47 and Title 11, and the Broken Arrow Municipal Code. The ordinance includes provisions for proper notification, towing procedures, and penalties to ensure fair and consistent enforcement. This action aligns with the City’s authority to regulate parking on municipal property and supports effective governance
Cost: Approximately $500 for the design, production, and installation of compliant parking signs at City Hall and other affected facilities.
