Title
Creating Sections 12.132(688) and 12.137(262), amending Sections 12.138(4)(a), (8), and (9)(b) and Sections 12.145(1) and (3)(a), and creating Section 12.150 of the Madison General Ordinances to modify portions of the Residential Parking Permit Program and to establish twenty-five minute parking meter zones.

Section 12.150 is being established to create areas of twenty-five minute metered parking and Section 12.145 is being modified to establish authority for Section 12.150 and establish rates therein. Finally, the ordinance also creates subsections in Sections 12.132 and 12.137 to include areas of Washington Avenue that are Parking Prohibited At All Times and Two Hour Parking 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M., to conform the ordinances to actual...
