Please refer the following proposed ordinance to whichever committee you deem appropriate: 1) VEHICLES PROHIBITED IN CENTRAL TRAFFIC DISTRICT. Background: This ordinance repeals a section of the Bakersfield Municipal Code which prohibits certain vehicles in the central traffic district between 8 am and 6 pm any day, provided signs giving notice of the restrictions have been posted and maintained. These provisions were enacted in 1944 but, apparently, the required signs were never posted and the section has never been enforced, at least in the memory of any present staff. Further, the restrictions are of doubtful validity as they do not conform to California Vehicle Code provisions. The Public Works Director and Traffic Engineer recommend repeal of Section 10.44.010.
