parking

The Breckenridge City Commissioners met Tuesday and did not approve a parking ordinance that would have made it illegal to park vehicles on unimproved surfaces. They also gave awards to city employees who have been with Breckenridge for an extended period of time.

On top of this, they tabled a public hearing regarding the rezoning of Wheeler and Elliott Street to allow for townhouses. They will have a new vote for it at the Planning and Zoning Commission next Thursday, which will determine if the P&Z board sends a recommendation to the city for approval.

The Breckenridge City Commission met Tuesday afternoon and passed a variety of new ordinances, as well as a public hearing regarding the classification and definition of townhouses in the city. One ordinance passed also included raising gas rates.

Other ordinances passed included more strict regulation on panhandlers and peddlers within the city’s public spaces  Another dealt with parking, which would have created stricter rules on how and where residents were allowed to park their car. But after a resident voiced concerns, the item was eventually tabled.
