The Nov. 15 City Council Study Session was a look into the near future, discussing an event and a program launch both scheduled to occur in 2023. Mayor Lili Bosse and the rest of approved street closures related to the upcoming Golden Globe Awards and the Preferential Parking Program.
The discussions about the program were, in effect, a recap and continuation of a Town Hall meeting two weeks ago. City Council was reminded of the proposed changes with license plate recognition technology and the use of “permit by plate,” a newly acceptable alternative to hangtags for vehicle verification.
