To counteract this practice Councilman Benedetto recommended that the two-hour parking ordinance be enforded until the return to the city of Councilman Carroll, at which time the council could•agair. consider the installation of parking meters. Councilman L:ueller stated that previous attempts to enforce the two hour limitation on parking had demonstrated the impossibility of satisfactory enforcement under present conditions because of the ease with which the intent of the,.ordinance might be circumvented Councilman Steele remarked that he felt attempts to enforce the ordinance had been half hearted because the enforcement officers had approached the problem with an attitude that they were already defeated. Discussion concluded with no definite taken by the council.
