RESOLUTION TO MODIFY EXISTING NO -PARKING ZONE
ALONG THE NORTH SIDE OF OAKMOOR STREET ADJACENT
TO LEONA COX ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Public Works
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt a resolution to modify the existing no -parking zone along the north side of
Oakmoor Street adjacent to Leona Cox Elementary school.
BACKGROUND
Leona Cox Elementary school has requested the City to modify the existing no -parking zone
(student pick-up/drop-off area) in front of the school on Oakmoor Street (Exhibit "A"). The
student population has increased over the past several years and the existing drop-off/pick-up
zone cannot accommodate the increased traffic volume. Expansion of the no -parking zone would
allow adequate space for vehicles to drop-off/pick-up children during school hours.
In working with the school and reviewing field conditions, staff determined that extending the
existing no -parking zone easterly for 300 feet and adding 170 feet of no -stopping zone westerly
of the existing no -parking zone would enhance school traffic circulation (Exhibit `B").
The modified parking restrictions will have minimal impact to the neighborhood as the
restrictions are only in effect during school hours.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
Adopiedo ev-5a. C)gto
FISCAL IMPACT
The work involves the installation of approximately ten signs at a cost of approximately $1000.
Funds are available in the Street Maintenance and Striping Account 14504-5111.010.
