City council's public safety committee on Tuesday night told the city administration to put together an ordinance that would create those metered spaces, according to the Express-Times.

Meanwhile, the paper reports that resident Terrance Miller has proposed a plan for the revenue those meters would generate. He suggested hiring a part-time employee to coordinate a program that would have work-release prisoners clean the neighborhood.
