Linden Point Parking restriction Agenda

Initiator

Engineering

Recommendation

Approve the attached ordinance that will establish a ?No parking Anytime? zone \n \n along Linden Point beginning at the north curb of Poplar Street and running \n \n northerly along the west/outer curb circling clockwise around the street loop \n \n along the east/outer curb and hence southerly back to the north curb of Poplar \n \n Street.

Approval

Approved

Background

The citizens that live along Linden Point requested that a parking restriction

be implemented because cars parked along the street restricts access to their

property, blocks emergency vehicle and limits traffic movement.

Analysis

The Traffic Engineering Division surveyed Linden Point because we received a

written request to eliminate parking along Linden Point. With the survey,

Traffic Engineering discovered that the width of the street, the narrow

shoulders and cars parked along both sides of the street made traffic movement

difficult on Linden Point. By limiting parking to the outer curb, the

restriction will improve access to the properties and the traffic movement

along the street. A summary of the survey is attached.

Financial Considerations

The cost to install the signs will come out of Traffic Engineering operating

budget.

Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement

No project annual fiscal impact.

Legal Considerations

All traffic ordinances require Council approval.

Recommendations/ Actions

Approve the proposed parking ordinance.
