AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Amending Traffic Resolution No. 97-148 by Establishing
Terminal Access Routes on Certain Streets and Authorizing Public Works
Directorto Establish Terminal Access Routes on Industrial Streets
MEETING DATE: October 17,2007
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt a resolution amending Traffic Resolution No. 97-148 as follows:
1. Establish terminal access routes on Cluff Avenue between
Turner Road and Victor Road, Black Diamond Way, and
Beckman Road between Black Diamond Way and Turner Road
2. Authorize the Public Works Director to establish terminal access
routes on industrial streets defined as streets adjacent to
industrial -zoned areas and streets east of Highway 99.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: City staff continues to receive requests for terminal access routes
for businesses, particularly in the industrial area east of Highway 99.
Our current practice is using truck template software to evaluate and
determine if the requested routes can accommodate Surface
Transportation Assistance Act (STAA) trucks.
Recently, Tigerlines, Inc., located on Black Diamond Way between Beckman Road and Cluff Avenue,
requested STAA truck routes to and from their facility. Staff evaluated the requested routes and determined
the following streets can accommodate STAA trucks: Cluff Avenue between Turner Road and Victor Road,
Black Diamond Way, and Beckman Road between Black Diamond Way and Turner Road. To accommodate
the STAA trucks, some minor no -parking zones are required at some intersections.
Since staff is primarily receiving STAA truck route requests on industrial streets, staff is suggesting the
Resolution also be modified to allow these terminal access routes to be designated administratively, in order
to improve our response to businesses.
FISCAL IMPACT: Signs are optional per the Vehicle Code, and staff anticipates mainly relying on a
published map. Implementation costs are minimal and can be absorbed within
the operating budget. The no -parking zones will be funded by Tigerlines, Inc.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable. -I
