BACKGROUND: On November 9, 2010, Council adopted a Commercial Loading Zone Permit Pilot Program and permit fee for calendar year 2011.

Staff will present the results of the Pilot Program, including recommendations for an on-going Commercial Loading Zone Permit Program.
The commercial loading zone permit program shall be administered on a biannual basis with permits valid for up to two (2) years depending on the date of issuance. The permit fee shall be $100 for permits issued between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2013.
