Item to be presented by:
DATE: November 22, 2011
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING NO -STOPPING ANYTIME ZONE
ALONG THE WEST SIDE OF SECO CANYON FRONTAGE
ROAD
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt a resolution establishing a no -stopping anytime zone along the west side of
Seco Canyon Frontage Road.
BACKGROUND
Staff received a request from local residents to install a no -stopping anytime zone along the west
side of Seco Canyon Frontage Road between Decoro Drive and Guadilamar Drive (see Exhibit
"A"). Residents indicated Seco Canyon Frontage Road is a narrow street (28 feet) and is often
blocked by parents as they drop off and pick up their children from school. Residents feel
removing parking along one side of the road will improve safety and circulation, especially
during school drop-off and pickup times.
Staff reviewed the area and contacted all adjacent homeowners. Based on observation of traffic
conditions and the feedback received from affected residents, staff determined that the
establishment of a no -stopping anytime zone, approximately 770 feet (see Exhibit "B"), would
enhance roadway operations and safety, as school parents would no longer block access to local
driveways while dropping off and picking up students.
Staff met with representatives from Saugus Union School District, Hart District, Santa Clarita
Elementary School and Arroyo Seco Jr. High School. All the school representatives supported
the proposed no -stopping zone and indicated that it would improve safety for their students.
CID
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
The project involves the.installation of 8 signs totaling approximately $2,000. Gas Tax Funds are
available in the Street Striping and Signing Maintenance Account 14504-5111.010.
