AGENDA REPORT
CONSENT CALENDAR City Manager Approval:
Item to be presented by:
DATE: April 25, 2000
SUBJECT: URBANDALE AVENUE - ESTABLISHING A PASSENGER LOADING/
UNLOADING ZONE FOR ROSEDELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
DEPARTMENT: Transportation & Engineering Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt a resolution establishing a passenger loading/unloading zone for
Rosedell Elementary School along Urbandale Avenue (west side) from the southern school
driveway to 240 feet south of the driveway, between 7:30 a.m, and 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.
and 3:30 p.m., school days only.
BACKGROUND
On March 22, 2000, City staff met with Ms. Nadine Elswick, Principal of Rosedell
Elementary School, and observed both morning and afternoon traffic conditions along
Urbandale Avenue in front of the school. Staff's evaluation indicated that a passenger
loading/unloading zone would minimize traffic congestion and provide the school with a
designated drop-off and pick-up area. There will be minimal impact to on -street parking,
since the passenger loading/unloading zone will only be in effect between 7:30 a.m. and
8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m., school days only.
On March 30, 2000, staff received a letter (Exhibit "A') from Rosedell Elementary School
confirming the request. As stated in the letter, the school is making the request, and they
are in full agreement with the proposed passenger loading/unloading zone.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
1. Keep existing situation as is.
2. Other action as determined by City Council.
