Council Meeting

Agenda Report #



TO: Mayor and Council



SUBJECT: Mayor and Councilors



INITIATED BY: Engineering







Recommendation: Approve the attached ordinance enacting a No Parking

Anytime Zone along the east curb of Bascom Court beginning at the north curb of

Bascom Drive and running north to the dead end to include the interior curb

line of the cul-de-sac.



Background: The City received a complaint from the Police Department

that vehicles were parking along the east and west curbs of Bascom Court

interfering with two-way traffic.



Analysis: The Traffic Engineering Division conducted a Parking Survey of all

properties along Bascom Drive for which a copy is attached. We mailed Parking

Survey letters with the parking restriction described above to ten properties

receiving responses from three. All three responders advised that they had

adequate off-street parking, one identified problems with vehicles parking on

both sides of the street and none of the three had a preference as to which

side of the street needed parking restrictions.



Financial Considerations: The installation of the No Parking Anytime Zone will

cost the City approximately $300.00.



Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement: The only annual impact would be the

replacement of any damaged signs which would be funded from the Traffic

Engineering Division?s operating budget.



Legal Considerations: A No Parking Anytime Zone requires an ordinance adopted

by Council.



Recommendations/ Actions: Approve a No Parking Anytime Zone along Bascom Court

as described above.
