Re: Prohibiting Alamo Commercial Area Skateboard Activity.
It has been proposed that the prohibition of skateboard and toy
vehicle use be considered for Alamo commercial areas . Pursuant to
this proposal, we have prepared the attached resolution for the
Board's consideration and possible adoption in' accordance with
recently approved Ordinance No. 93-54 (S 46-12 . 208 ) .
With the adoption of this resolution and the erection and
maintenance by interested landowners of appropriate signs on their
involved commercial properties, the Sheriff (at his discretion) could
implement the provisions of Ordinance No. 93-54 (Ord. Code Chap. 46-
12 ) thereon.
The Community Development Department has advised that all of the
commercially zoned properties in the Alamo area have been combined
with S2 sign control combining district but that no other
unincorporated area commercial properties have been so combined.
