Harris SUBJECT: PROHIBITION OF ON -STREET PARKING ALONG PORTIONS OF ARROYO PARR DRIVE AND DEL MONTE DRIVE W/0 MCBEAN PARKWAY TEMPORARY PARKING ALONG DEL MONTE DRIVE E/O MCBEAN PARKWAY Resolution Nos. 92-10 & 92-11 DEPARTMENT: Community Development BACKGROUND Several citizens and homeowners groups .have expressed concerns over certain traffic issues relating to Arroyo Park Drive and Del Monte Drive west of , McBean Parkway which could not be addressed until now because the streets had not been accepted as City streets. The streets have recently been accepted, and the following traffic issue was requested to be investigated: "Commuter carpoolers park too close to the driveways and intersections along Del Monte and Arroyo Park .Drives west of McBean Parkway, obstructing the sight distance of people trying to turn onto the streets. Parking prohibitions along both streets have been requested." Both streets were observed for a few days, and the results are as follows: 1. Various carpoolers using the Santa Clarita transit downtown commuter bus to downtown Los Angeles park their vehicles along both sides of Arroyo Park Drive or Del Monte Drive .west of McBean Parkway from 5:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on weekdays. 2. There are horizontal curves on both Arroyo Park Drive and Del Monte Drive west of McBean Parkway. 3. The sight visibility for those drivers leaving the driveways from both sides of the streets are reduced when cars are parked adjacent to the driveways. 4. There are existing "No Parking" zones along both sides of Del Monte Drive between McBean Parkway and E1 Paseo Drive. Staff has had several meetings with the homeowners' associations and also the City's Public Works Department, Transit Division. A major concern is where the carpoolers will park: in the interim. A resolution to allow temporary parking until July 31, 1992 is being proposed to address this issue. This would allow the City transit system to investigate some other alternatives and locations for their Santa Clarita transit downtown commuter bus users to park their vehicles. (See Exhibit B.) The homeowners' association and the Public Works Department are all in agreement with the staff recommendations. Adopted:L_/a _____._� : g.- PROHIBITION OF ON -STREET PARKING Page 2 The City transit system has just completed a survey to show if the commuters oppose the new proposed temporary location. The survey results indicate .that 77% of the commuters do not object to this relocation. RECOMMENDATION 1. Adopt Resolution No. 92-10 prohibiting parking along portions (as described in the Resolution) of Del Monte Drive and Arroyo Park Drive west of McBean Parkway for better visibility of those drivers exiting.the driveways. (See Exhibit "A".) 2. Adopt Resolution No. 92-11 allowing temporary parking until July 31, 1992 along both sides of Del Monte Drive between McBean Parkway and El Paseo Drive.
