|
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND Marsalis Lane and Mosswood Drive are thirty-six (36) foot wide minor collector streets adjacent to McCall Elementary School.
During school drop-off and pick-up times, parents park their vehicles on both sides of Marsalis Lane and Mosswood Drive, impeding flow of traffic and sight distance.
The principal at McCall Elementary School requested the proposed parking restrictions and successfully obtained neighborhood support by completing the established petition process.
The Transportation Engineering Division recommends an amendment to the Code of Ordinances to establish no parking zones along and upon the south side of Marsalis Lane and the north side of Mosswood Drive. |
| | | | | | | | FINANCIAL SUMMARY/STRATEGIC GOALS This item may impact revenue collected from fines due to the implementation of parking restrictions; however, the exact change in revenue is indeterminable and will have minimal impact on the General Fund budget.
Approval of this Ordinance supports the City's Strategic Plan Critical Success Factor of Multi-Modal Transportation and Mobility Solutions. |
