BACKGROUND
At the City Council meeting on November 25, 2008, the City Council conducted the first reading
and passed to the second reading an ordinance entitled, "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTER
12.48 OF TITLE 12 (VEHICLES AND TRAFFIC) OF THE SANTA CLARITA MUNICIPAL
CODE CONCERNING VEHICLES EXCEEDING FOURTEEN THOUSAND (14,000)
POUNDS—OPERATION ON CERTAIN HIGHWAYS PROHIBITED—ALTERNATE
ROUTES."
Staff has received requests from residents of the Monterey Development along Isabella Parkway
and from residents within the Canvas Street/Linda Vista Street neighborhood to investigate the
possibility of restricting truck access on their residential streets.
Ado&0o Ord, 0q-1
Staff conducted a traffic investigation along Isabella Parkway and within the Canvas Street/Linda
Vista Street neighborhood. Based on that investigation, staff has concluded that restricting truck
access within these residential street networks would help direct truck traffic to remain on the
arterial roadway system, which is designed to better accommodate such vehicles.
Consistent with these findings, staff recommends that Isabella Parkway between Via Princessa
and Golden Triangle Road as well as those streets leading into the Canvas Street/Linda Vista
Street residential street network (Deep Creek Drive, Galeton Road, Gailxy Drive, Anne Freda
Street, and Kenroy Avenue) be included in the list of roadways in section 12.48.060 of the Santa
Clarita Municipal Code that restricts vehicles weighing more than 14,000 pounds.
The changes to the existing ordinance are underlined and as follows:
"12.48.060 Vehicles Exceeding Fourteen Thousand (14,000) Pounds—Operation on Certain
Highways Prohibited—Alternate Routes.
H. Isabella Parkway — On Isabella Parkwaybetween Golden Triangle Road and Via Princessa.
These vehicles may use Whites Canyon Road between Soledad Canyon Road and Via Princessa
as an alternate route.
I. Linda Vista Street — On Linda Vista Street between Sierra Highway and Canvas Street. These
vehicles may use Soledad Canyon Road between Sierra Highway and Sand Canyon Road as an
alternate route.
J. Deep Creek Drive — On Deep Creek Drive between Soledad Canyon Road and Anne Freda
Street. These vehicles may use Sand Canyon Road, Soledad Canyon Road, and Sierra Highway
as an alternate route.
K. Galeton Road — On Galeton Road between Soledad Canyon Road and Stillmore Street. These
vehicles may use Sierra Highway, Soledad Canyon Road, and Sand Canyon Road as an alternate
route.
L. Gailxy Avenue — On Gailxy Avenue between Soledad Canyon Road and Bainbury Street.
These vehicles may use Sand Canyon Road, Soledad Canyon Road, and Sierra Highway as an
alternate route.
M. Anne Freda Street — On Anne Freda Street between Soledad Canyon Road and Deep Creek
Drive. These vehicles may use Sand Canyon Road, Soledad Canyon Road, and Sierra Highway
as an alternate route.
N. Kenroy Avenue — On Kenroy Avenue between Soledad Canyon Road and Nearview Drive.
These vehicles may use Sand Canyon Road, Soledad Canyon Road, and Sierra Highway as an
alternate route."
Vicinity maps for the proposed vehicle weight limit locations for Isabella Parkway and the
Canvas Street/Linda Vista Street neighborhood are attached as Exhibits "A" and "B,"
respectively.
This recommendation has been discussed with the Los Angeles County Sheriff s Department,
and they are in agreement with City staff.
