HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - July 15, 1987 (81)RES. NO. 87-91 Council was apprised that at the June 17, 1987 Council meeting, City Council requested staff to evaluate the CC-48(d) request for a loading zone at 610 South Fairmont Avenue. The Administrative Assistant of the Bechthold 4 Convalescent Home requested the loading zone for the purpose of loading freight and a handicapped student. The written request stated the area has a hig) parking demand and the vendors and school bus have difficulty loading and unloading supplies and the student. Staff verified the high on-street parking usage in the area. The convalescent home has three on-street parking spaces in front of the building and a driveway that can hold approximately two vehicles. The driveway is not used by the vendors due to the narrow width, and school buses do not use driveways in the City limits unless they have a turn-around (two driveways). To determine the most r appropriate zone, staff reviewed the following definitions (VC 21458): - A yellow loading zone is for the purpose of loading or unloading passengers or freight. i - A white loading zone is for the purpose of loading or , unloading passengers or depositing mail. - A red zone indicates no parking, standing, and stopping except a bus may stop in a red zone marked as F a bus loading zone. The City's bus loading zones are usually adjacent to schools and bus stations. Since a loading zone is needed for freight and for a student, staff recommends installing a yellow loading zone. +" The LUSO Transportation Center felt a 35' zone would be appropriate for the school bus. Staff recommends installing a 20' yellow loading zone south of the driveway which will allow the school bus and vendors to use the driveway width for maneuverability. Council, on motion of Council Member Hinchman, Pinkerton second, adopted Resolution No. 87-91 establishing a 20 foot yellcw loading zone south of the Bechthold Convalescent Home driveway at 610 South Fairmont Avenue.
