Title
A substitute ordinance relating to the creation of temporary no cruising zones.
Sections
101-20.5-4 rn

Analysis
Current code provisions prohibit motorists in designated areas from travelling 3 or more times in a 2-hour period past a set traffic control point between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. These "designated areas" are established by code. This ordinance permits the chief of police or his or her designee at or above the rank of sergeant to establish a temporary designated area based on specific criteria provided a written plan, approved by the chief of police, is filed with the appropriate district's commander, including the following information:

1. The location of the designated area.

2. The date(s) and times during which the designated area will be in effect.

The person preparing the plan must be able to demonstrate that one or more of the conditions attendant to cruising enumerated in the code exist or are reasonably anticipated in the area to be designated.

4. Any instructions given to enforcement officers concerning the designated area.

5. The location of signs indicating the presence of the designated area. The temporary designated area must also be posted with sufficient signs to provide notice of the prohibition against cruising.
A copy of the plan is also to be provided to the common council within 14 days of the date on which the designated area takes effect.
