BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Clarita (City) has been made aware of several parking and safety concerns
from businesses along Pine Street regarding vehicles, including recreation vehicles (RVs), being
stored and/or abandoned along the roadway. Pine Street is a two-lane roadway that narrows
significantly south of Newhall Avenue.
City staff conducted a field investigation and observed several RVs parked overnight on the east
side of the street that remained present throughout the following day. Parked RVs encroach onto
the roadway, hinder visibility for motorists exiting driveways, and impact business parking along
Pine Street. During the field investigation, staff observed that vehicles are also parking on the
west side of the street, impeding the travel lane, as shoulders are not present. Parked vehicles on
the west side of the roadway can delay or prevent emergency vehicle response and make it
challenging for larger vehicles to navigate this section of the roadway.

Pine Street was constructed by the County of Los Angeles and incorporated into the City in
1987. As such, the road was not constructed to current standards for an industrial or commercial
collector roadway and lacks sufficient road width to accommodate parking on both sides of the
roadway. A minimum of 20 feet clearance is needed for emergency vehicles to gain access and
stage during an incident. Pine Street does not provide the 20-foot clearance, and staff is
recommending the removal of parking on the west side of the roadway.
Businesses along Pine Street have been notified and are in support of staff s recommendation to
establish No Overnight Parking zones and a No Stopping Any Time zone along the following
segments of Pine Street in order to improve traffic safety and circulation (see Exhibit B):
No Overnight Parking Zones
• West side of Pine Street from 145 feet south of Newhall Avenue to 615 feet southerly.
• East side of Pine Street from 95 feet south of Newhall Avenue to 3,405 feet southerly.
No Stopping Zone
• West side of Pine Street from 615 feet south of Newhall Avenue to 2,885 feet southerly.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adequate funds are available in Street Maintenance expenditure account 14504-5141.008 to
support the recommended action.
