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.
