Through a request by a property owner adjacent to the area for which the restrictions are to be considered; or
3.
A person using that right-of-way.

Petition; notice; hearing. The written petition for parking restrictions shall be filed with the director who shall place the petition on the next open road service area board agenda. The director shall prepare a staff report regarding the proposed restrictions for the benefit of the road service area board in considering the restrictions. A public hearing shall be conducted before the road service area board regarding the proposed parking restrictions which shall be advertised in a newspaper of general circulation within the road service area at least seven days before the hearing is held.
D.
Restrictions; immediate need. Notwithstanding the provisions of KPB 12.04.030(B), the director may establish temporary parking restrictions for particular roads or sections of roads for which he makes a determination of immediate need. Determinations of immediate need may be based on congestion; damage or potential damage to roads, adjacent properties and water bodies; and safety concerns. At the next meeting of the road service area board, the service area board shall hold a public hearing and determine whether to continue, modify, or rescind the director's temporary parking restrictions. The notice requirements of KPB 12.04.030 C. shall apply to the road service area board's consideration of the director's temporary parking restrictions based on immediate need.
E.
Restrictions; resolution. The setting of particular parking restrictions shall be by action of the road service area board by resolution after determination that a need exists for restrictions.
