BACKGROUND The City of Santa Clarita (City) received a request to investigate the sight visibility of the southerly driveway of an office building located at 27200 Tourney Road. There is a safety concern with the exiting driveway due to parked vehicles along the east side of Tourney Road. Staff conducted a sight distance analysis at the driveway and determined that establishing a No Stopping Anytime zone on the east side of Tourney Road, south of the southerly driveway, will improve the visibility of oncoming vehicles when exiting onto Tourney Road. The proposed No Stopping Anytime zone will restrict 240 feet of on-street parking (see attached Traffic Engineering Exhibit). City staff contacted adjacent business owners, who indicated their approval of the proposed No Stopping Anytime zone. The recommended action supports the Public Safety theme of the City's five-year strategic plan, Santa Clarita 2020. ALTERNATIVE ACTION Other action as determined by the City Council.
