Traffic control maps shall be prepared and maintained on the City Geographic Information System (GIS), a computer-based record. The City Engineer will ensure that files are maintained on the GIS that reflect an accurate record of the traffic control system/devices as specified in § 3-109.1. The information maintained on the City GIS shall be public record, but the keeping of the traffic control information shall not be a requisite condition for the prosecution of any violation of this Traffic Code. For purposes of establishing a violation of the Traffic Code, the office of the City Engineer shall, when requested by the defendant, submit an affidavit indicating that the area in which the violation occurred is designated as a prohibited/restricted parking area.
