January 4, 2018 City Council Regular Meeting
Title
Motion to Approve a Tour Stand on the West Side of Fahm Street between Bay Street and Indian Street
Description

Section 6-1533 of the Tour Service for Hire Ordinance states that persons desiring to have a place designated as a regular stand for tour service vehicles in the city shall make application by written petition to the Mayor and Aldermen. Ghost Coast Distillery submitted a request for a local tour stand in the 600 block of Indian Street. A stand in the area will accommodate existing trolley activity, possibly alleviate trolley traffic in the City Market area on both Jefferson Street and Montgomery Street, and accommodate future tour activities as the area redevelops.  

Traffic Engineering and Mobility and Parking Services reviewed the request and recommended an alternate, more centralized location to service all businesses on the west side of Fahm Street between Bay Street and Indian Street. The Tourism Advisory Committee (TAC) reviewed the recommendation and supported the request.
