AN ORDINANCE
AUTHORIZING THE CITY'S DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING
SERVICES, OR DESIGNEE, TO IMPLEMENT A TRAFFIC
MANAGEMENT PLAN IN THE BAYFRONT ARTS AND SCIENCE
PARK AND SURROUNDING AREA, INCLUDING THE
MODIFICATION OF TRAFFIC REGULATIONS, AS NEEDED
DURING SPECIAL EVENTS AT THE AMERICAN BANK CENTER
FOR A PERIOD OF UP TO 120 DAYS; AND DECLARING AN
EMERGENCY.
WHEREAS, there is a need to manage special event traffic within the Bayfront
Arts and Science Park and surrounding area due to the opening of the American
Bank Center;
WHEREAS, due to the frequency of special events in the first months of
operation, a reoccurring traffic management plan is necessary for the efficient
movement of vehicles and pedestrians;
WHEREAS, to avoid bringing the same traffic management plan before Council
for approval prior to each event, a one time approval of the plan for the initial
operating period of the American Bank Center is perceived to be a more efficient
practice.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS:
SECTION 1. That the City's Director of Engineering Services, or designee, is
authorized to implement a traffic management plan, (Exhibit) as needed on a
recurring basis during special events at the American Bank Center, for a period
of up to 120 days, to manage and control traffic in the Bayfront Arts and Science
Park and surrounding area.
SECTION 2. Any modification of traffic regulations that will extend beyond the
initial 120 day period shall be brought before City Council as an action item for
ratification and approval by Council.
SECTION 3. That upon written request of the Mayor or five council members,
copy attached, the City Council (1) finds and declares an emergency due to the
need for immediate action necessary for the efficient and effective administration
of City affairs and (2) suspends the Charter rule that requires consideration of
and voting upon ordinances at two regular meetings so that this ordinance is
passed and shall take effect upon first reading as an emergency this the 9th day
of November, 2004.
