BACKGROUND INFORMATION: As requested by City Council at the 1V% 1, 1991 meeting, Public Works staff has performed a sight distance analysis for "No Parking" zones on the east side of Cherokee Lane adjacent to Hale Road. With continual parking and an accident problem, the analysis would indicate that 145' of "No Parking" south of Hale Road and 40' of "No Parking" north of Hale Road would be needed as shown on the attached map. These "No Parking" zones will affect on -street parking at three businesses along Cherokee Lane. North of Hale Road, one of the six existing Cherokee Lane parking spaces in front of the auto sales lot would be eliminated. South of Hale Road, all four of the existing parking spaces in front of the auto sales lot and adjacent three -unit office building would be eliminated. Parking space for three cars will remain on the Hale Road frontage of the auto sales parcel. The three -unit office building i s the only of the affected parcels with on-site parking. One on-site parking space exists on this parcel. One of the three office; at this building is vacant. Available accident records from 1987 to the present indicate that one of the 22 reported accidents at this intersection may have been related toa sight obstruction, although no mention was made in th2 accident report. This 1988 accident involved a driver making a left turn exiting from Hale Road that did not see the approaching northbound vehicle. Traffic volumes on Hale Road and Cherokee Lane are 910 and 16,580 vehicles per day, respectively. Discussion: Field observations made by staff indicate that on -street parking danarxl along Hale Road is fairly high apparently due to the apartment complex on the north side of the street. On -street parking demand on Cherokee Lane adjacent to Hale Road appears to be varied. Since Council's recommendations at the May 1 meeting, on -street parking appears to have decreased. To date, the Public Works Department has received one formal complaint regarding vehicles parking at this location. APPROVED: THOMAS A. PETERSON City Manager Eff CNOPAR27/TXTW.04 (CO .COM) June 12, 1991 Cherokee Lane "No Parking" June 19, 1991 Page 2 U.e to the lack of on-site parking at the affected businesses and the accident history a t the intersection, staff i s reluctant t o recommend the installation o f these "No Parking" zones at this time. However, Council may wish to instal? a shorter "No Parking" zone. A shorter "No Parking" zone immediately south of the crosswalk would increase driver visibility of pedestrians using the crosswalk and improve driver visibility wbm exiting from Hale Road. Up to 20' of "No Parking" (one stall) can be installed under the direction of the Public Wcd<s Director without City Council approval. FUNDING: If approved, funding for the "No Parking" zone to be provided from the street maintenance account. ack Ronsko P li Works Director Prepared by Rick S.
