BACKGROUND:
Your Board has adopted similar resolutions designating parking restrictions.
Section 22507 et al. of the California Vehicle Code and Section 7.24.010 of the San Mateo County Code of Ordinances provide that local authorities may prohibit or restrict the stopping, parking, or standing of vehicles by resolution or ordinance.
The Department of Public Works (Department) received a request from a business owner for a one-hour time limited parking restriction on Hurlingame Avenue in the unincorporated area of Redwood City. The parking restriction will allow for deliveries and patron parking close to the business during key operating hours.
DISCUSSION:
The Department has evaluated the request and determined that the proposed parking restriction along Hurlingame Avenue would benefit the community. The Department recommends adoption of a resolution to restrict parking at this location.
Property owners on adjacent blocks, extending a minimum of 300 feet from the proposed parking zone locations, were notified of the date and time of your Board’s meeting when this item will be considered. Comments received to date are in favor of this change and are summarized in Attachment “A.”
The location of parking zones and other traffic restrictions on County-maintained streets are currently shown on maps in the Department of Public Works office, and will be made available in list form on maps on the Department’s website. The master list will be updated to reflect the recommended changes, if your Board approves the proposed resolution.
County Counsel has reviewed and approved the resolution as to form.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of installing signs and painting parking zone markings varies, but averages approximately $550 per parking zone. Costs are included in the Fiscal Year 2019-20 Adopted Budget. There is no impact to the General Fund.
