BACKGROUND:
Your Board has adopted similar resolutions designating parking restrictions.
Section 22507 et al. of the California Vehicle Code and Section 7.32.010 of the County of San Mateo's Ordinance Code provide that local authorities may prohibit or restrict the stopping, parking, or standing of vehicles by resolution or ordinance.

DISCUSSION:
Staff evaluated the request and determined that the proposed parking restrictions along Fair Oaks Avenue would benefit the community. The Department recommends adoption of a resolution to restrict parking at this location.

The Department did not receive any notices of objections or support, which is 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...
