(See attached plan.) BACKGROUND INFORMATIOM: At the February 3, 1988 City Council meeting, City Council reviewed a request from Chuck Wentland concerning the sight problem at. the Ham Lane Professional Center. (See attached Council Communication.) City Council approved the no parking zone on Ham Lane and requested that staff contact the Bank of Lodi regarding the recommended no parking zone on Tokay Street. Staff contacted David Vietmeier, the Vice President and Cashier of Bank of Lodi and he does not have any objections to the no parking zcne on the north side of Tokay Street west of Ham Lane. Currently, the Bank of Lodi is reviewing parking alternatives to help alleviate the parking problems on Tokay Street. One of ..ose alternatives is use of a church parking lot located across the street from the bank. The Bank of Lodi is also planning to install additional parking spaces with the expansion of the bank in the near future. Staff recommends installing the 210' no parking zone on the north side of Tokay Street from Han Lane to the Ham Lane Professional Center driveway, and the 15' no parking zone west of the fire hydrant located west of the driveway. f ack L.

(See attached plan.) BACKGROUND Il4;CRMATUN. Chuck Wentland sent the attached letter requesting staff to review the sight problem at the Hin Lane Professional Center driveways (Tokay Street driveway and the northern Ham Lane driveway). Staff made a number of field observations and witnessed sight problems at both ariveways . On Tokay Street, the combination of the parked vehicles and the street curvature cause a sight problem for motorists exiting the driveway. The majority of the parked vehicles (approximately 10 spaces) are employees of the Bank of Lodi. I t appears the employees are parking their vehicles on -street, allowing their customers use of the parking lot (approximately 30 spaces). During our observations, the Bank of Lodi parking lot was half full. By removing the 10± spaces on Tokay Street, those vehicles parking in the area may iruw west to the residential area. Staff cannot force employers to allow employee parking in their parking lot. Similar situations have occurred in rnany parts of Lodi. The result is unhappy neighbors, reduced traffic safety, and controversial Council decisions. The City Council and Planning Commission should consider revising the parking standards to avoid these types of situ6 t i ons . W recommend installing the 210' no parking zone on the north side of Tokay Street from Han Lane to the Hm Lane Professional Center driveway. Staff also recommends installing a 15' no parking zone west of the fire hydrant located west of the driveway. Because of the fire hydrant, this can be done without specific Council action. Staff observed vehicles parking within 15' of the fire hydrant, and installing the no parking zone will improve the sight problem APPROVED: na FILE NO.

Ronsko _ May I respectfully request that you visit our comnlex and investigate the possibility of providing some red curb near the driveways to allow the vehicle driver the ability to see roadway traffic on Ham Lane and Tokay Streets when they are making a movement onto those streets. The driveway that seems to have the most traffic is that one on Ham Lane, west of Lodi Avenue. When a vehicle is parked immediately south of that driveway, it is extremely difficult to see Ham Lane traffic heading north. Of course yon probably don't have any trouble because of your size, but there are a Lot of elderly people, who hold valid drivers licenses that do not see much above the vehicle dash board and have difficulty seeing the cross traffic because of vehicles parked at the curb. I have noticed problems also with the TNestly now of traffic at Tokay Street driveway. I have Listened to your reasoning with the City Council on why you recommend this or that over the years and believe I understand your philosophy on intersection control (although I 'nave not been privileged to receive that communication as the Council has), but I do not know your personal concept as to egress and curb markings on the subject of this Letter. I do know that the northern Ham driveway gets a lot of traffic and feel that a red curb of say 50 feet or more to the south of that exit would be worthwhile. There is attached a plot plan of the area, I have marked in yellow the areas that I believe should be examined. Awaiting your visit, I remain Ve;f truly yours, C .

TO: City Council FROH : C i t y Manager COUNCIL COMMUNICATION MEETING DATE: February 17, 1988 AGENDA TITLE: b) Donner Drive/Calaveras Street and Pioneer Drive/Calaveras Street, Intersection Control RECDIMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve the installation of yield signs on Donner Drive at Calaveras Street and on Calaveras Street at Pioneer Drive. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At the January 6, 1988 City Council meeting, the residents in the vicinity of Lawrence School requested stop signs be installed at the Donner Drive/Calaveras Street and Pioneer Drive/Calaveras Street intersections (see attached petition). The City Council directed staff to evaluate the two intersections and bring the results to the City Council as soon as possible. Staff performed the cecessary studies. Daily traffic counts were taken and accident records were reviewed. There have been no accidents at Pioneer Drive/Calaveras Street in the past four years. A t the Donner Drive/Calaveras Street intersection, there have been no accidents in 1984, 1985 and 1986, and one right-angle accident in 1987. The primary collision factor was the eastbound motorist failed to yield to the northbound motorist. Both intersections are "T" intersections and have no controls. The State of California multi -way stop sign guidelines were used to evaluate the need for multi -way stop signs. Based on the traffic counts and accident records, multi -way stop signs are not justified at these intersections (see attached warrants). Staff then reviewed the need for a yield or stop sign on the miner street. The City uses its own intersection control guidelines for three-way intersections. If the major street has an approximate traffic volume of 2000 vehicles per day, the minor street should be controlled. A stop or yield sign i s used depending on various factors: volumes, sight distance, accidents, etc. APPROVED: TH CDONNER/TXTw.02M FILE NO_ February 10, 1988 City Council Donner/Calaveras February 17, 1988 Page 2 Based on these guidelines, yield signs are justified on Donner Drive at Calaveras Street and on Calaveras Street at Pioneer Drive. track Ronsko Pub? i Works Director JLR/PJF/ma Attachments cc: Street Superintendent Police Chief Deborah Myers Cheri Gri bayedoff Lawrence School Principal, Ed McCaughna CDONNER/TXTW.02M February 9, 1988 ..� �., .. _._._ .,__...
