DATE: March 30, 1981
SUBJECT- Restricted Permit Parking in Dartmoor Circle
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council discuss the possibility of additional
restr I cte perm .-em-rt-parking on Dartmoor Circle and take the action required of
tl.,eir decislon.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: City Council, at their last regular meeting, instructed
tFat the above Item—"&e—placed on the Agenda for this meeting with the understanding
that the matter would be open to public discussion at that time. The Public lurks
Department has sent out the attached letter to the people on Dartmoor Circle and
Century Blvd. indicating that the meeting is being held and that they were in-
vited to discuss restricted or permit parking. It is assumed that they will be
in the audience to Indicate their concerns.
Attached is a copy of the City's existing Ordinance related to permit parking.
Police and Finance Departments were requested to comment on any concerns they
may have. A copy of their Memos is attached.
It is felt that if permit parking is going to be considered, that some type of
guidelines should be set up for its use. These guidelines should at least
Include such items as:
ar a
1. Minimum�b preferential parking,
2. Petition requiring 1/2 or 2/3 approval from residents living within
proposed area.
3. Traffic survey on streets to confirm problem and best solution (i.e.
On -street parking supply, Off-street parking availability, parking
supply vs peak occupancy demands, average vehicle turn -over),
4. Problems with limited restricted parking without use of permits.
5. Review of enforcement ;problems and actual City costs ($3.00/$1.00
per existing ordinance will not cover City's actual cost. $3.00
barely covers cost of sign and will not cover post, installation,
enforcements 0 6 M, etc.).
The Council Is aware, i am sure, that vie have had similar requests for similar
parking in other areas, and that approval of permit parking, In accordance with
V"i `rdinance attached, will probably generate many other requests In areas
where parking Is presently restricted or is a problem. Consideration should

be made to the impact and the problems the Finance Department will be having
In issuing permits and the problem with Police enforcement.
If permit parking is approved, It probably should be limited to 9:00 A.M. to
3:00 Pals on school days with unrestricted parking at all other times.

Dear Resident of Dartmoor Circle:

The City Council, at the request of the principal of Tokay High School,
is considering an extension of the parking restriction time limit on the
south side of Century Blvd. between Ham Lane and Scarborough Drive,
The existing conditions prohibit parking on school days between the hours
of 9:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., and between 12:30 P.m. and 1;30 p.m. The
proposed change would extend the restriction to 200 P.m. (ado parking
i 9:00 aero w 10:00 a.m. and 12:30 Peres - 2:30 p-rPi,)
In reviewing the proposal with people in the arca, we hava received
several requests to extend the restriction on Dartmoor Circle to 2:30 P.m.
also. This would keep people now parking on Century Blvd, from 1:30 P.m.
to 2:30 P.m. from parking on Dartmoor Circle Instead.
Since you may be affected by this change, we are asking that you return
one copy of this letter to tis, with the appropriate square checked, by
Friday, starch 13, 1981, or call Marvin Davis or myself at City Mali,
334-563$ to discuss the matter® The City Council will also discuss
the proposal further at their meeting of March 18, 1981, 8:00 P -Mo,
City Council Chambers, City Hall, 221 Wo Pine and you may wish to
attend the meeting to talk about your concerns

To.. Jack Ronsko, Public Works Director
From: Marc Yates, Chief of Police
Subject: Parking/Traffic, Hutchins Street - Frontage Road
Parking/Restrictions - Tokay High School
Attached phase find reports from Captain Cross which relate to both areas
of concern.
I agree with his comments and believe our primary concern is in the area of
safety and movement of vehicles. The only alternative the police department
has In the parking on Hutchins Street is to Invoke very rigid and strict
enforcement procedures - which will help to alleviate the problem but will
cause a great deal of dissension among the users of the Racquet Ball Club
and the people living in the area.
As this has been a concern of the Council and the people effected, our en-
forcement has been only in the area of flagrant violations. Should a
solution not be achieved, our enforcement In the area will have to be
Increased,

S e PARKING RESTRICTI0P1S - TOI AY HIGH SCHOOL
Per memo from the Public Works Director, and
your request for comments, be advised of the following®
la 1 find no fault with the extension of the
parking restriction time® 'die current restriction extends to 1:30 INV
however, we have received notification that the school area is not
vacated by that tithe, and that many vehicles are parking and creating
difficulties.
2® The extension of the time restriction to
2030 PH would be consistent with the intent of those affected® I do
not believe it would create any concern to our patrol functions, except
requests for service during the initial inception of the increased time
restriction® Once those affected became Aware of the change, the matter
should correct itself®
3® My major concern would be if the City Council
allowed the home owners in the affected area to take aadvantacer of City
Ordinance ell$$ - providins for permit paarking® If permit parking was
allowed in this area, there would be no way it could be excluded from
being allowed in the vitinity of Lodi High School; Tokay Street, Stockton
Street, Cherry Street and Maple affected by the Pacific Coast Producers
Cannery, and the various and sundry other commercial and induntrigal
enterprises that require emplo,, 3es to utilize this public streets for
parking during the working hours.
40 1 appreciate the conce=rn by home owners
affected in the area of Tokay High School., however, it took a groat decal
of time and effort to bring the citizens and studento together regrading
a similar aai.tuation on Pacific Avenue and to control the difficulty with
Lodi High School ntudentso Permit parkin,;-, would only open the door and
create more problems® 1n t,.V opinion, permit parkin, would incur more
demands for police cervi.cec by officers opunding increaved time h%ndling
parkint, problems within the adjacent neinhborho-In.

SUBJECT., Your Memo of 3/24/81 a Permit or Restricted Parking on
Dartmoor Circle
This doesn't necessarily bother use We would favor restricted
parking over permit pari`ing, if we have a choice.
Permit parking doses involve us more with both the issuance and
onforcemet.t of permits.
of course, should enforcement in the school area Indicate that the
health and safety of our people would be jeopardized, we would have
trouble with the "Labor Rep" as we did during O)e discussions of our
enforcement at the Lodi High School. We'll just have to "cross that
bridge" when we come to it.
