Cha.lge the wording in ,.rder to make it clear that it is legal to regulate vehicle travel based on the number of axles, as provided in the California Vehicle Code (Exhibit 2). 2. Change the existing restrictions on the streets shown below due to the ease in police enforcement provided by commercial vehicle travel restrictions based on vehicle axles (Exhibit 3): o Holly Drive (all) - change from "commercial vehicles and vehicles over 3 tons prohibited" to "commercial vehicles over 2 axles prohibited". o Tokay Street (from Stockton Street to Cherokee Lane) - change from "commercial vehicles and vehicles over 5 tons prohibited" to "rommt-cia' vehicles over 2 axles prohibited". BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At the February 3, 1993 meeting, City Council set this public hearing based on the report prepared by Public Works staff regarding truck parking and travel on City streets. The report includes complaints and problem areas received through the City's complaint system regarding truck parking and truck travel, the existing regulations and restricted locations, past discussions and Council action on truck issues. This report is summarized below: APPROVED—"- THOMAS A. PETERSON City Manager t� recycled paper CC -1 CPHTRUCK/TXTW.02M (CO.COM) February 23, 1993 Public Hearing to Review the Report and Proposed Ordinance on Truck Parking and Travel on City Streets March 3, 1993 Page 2 Report Summary Staff has prepared three Alternatives addressing truck parking and travel issues. Alternative 1 is to modify the existing truck parking ordinance by changing the definition of "residential district" as defined in the LMC Section 10.52.050. Under this Alternative, truck parking would be prohibited adjacent to non -residentially zoned areas located on two-lane roadways if a "residential district" exists across the street, unless it has reverse frontage. Alternative 2 is to consider repealing the existing truck parking ordinance and establishing a "truck route" system, thereby allowing truck parking only along those routes. Alternative 3 is to leave the existing truck parking ordinance as is and install no -parking zones as truck parking problems are reported. A summary of the advantages and disadvantages of these Alternatives is presented in the attached table. After reviewing the Alternatives and comments received regarding this matter, staff recommends that the City Council approve Alternative 1 since it satisfies the City's intent to prohibit truck parking near residences while providing considerably more available truck parking than Alternative 2. Also, the amount of additional restricted area will not severely affect the total amount of City-wide truck parking currently available. Staff has no major objections to Alternative 2 since it can be used to regulate truck travel as well as truck parking and can be written to eliminate truck parking in residential areas, similar to the existing truck parking ordinance. Staff's major concern is the reduction in available truck parking and that truck parking would not be permitted in commercial and industrial areas not on a truck route. Staff does not recommend Alternative 3 due to its ineffectiveness in controlling truck parking and the cost to evaluate, install and maintain no -parking zones. Also, an excessive amount of passenger vehicle parking would have to be eliminated in order to keep trucks from parking in undesirable areas. Recommendation Based on the findings of this Report, staff recommends that Council approve Alternative 1 (modifying the existing truck oArking ordinance). If Council approves Alternative 2, staff would need to prepare an ordinance to be introduced at a future date. If Council chooses Alternative 3, no action is required at this time. Staff will prepare a list of locations where "no -parking" zones have been requested and return to Council at a future date. Whether or not Council chooses to act on the truck parking issue, staff recommends that Council approve Item 2 of LMC Section 10.52.050 (parking restrictions) and Items 1 and 2 of LMC Section 10.52.010 (vehicle restrictions on City streets) since these Sections are needed for enforcement purposes.

The majority of the complaints received are related to truck parking causing sight problems. followed by truck travel on city streets and noise created by trucks parking near residences. The types of complaints received and probiern locations identified from 1988 to the present are shown below. Truck Parking Over half (69%) of the truck complaints received are related to truck parking. Of these, the majority of complaints are due to trucks parking too close to intersections and driveways that are creating sight problems for drivers attempting to enter the roadway. Other complaints received are trucks parking in residential areas and noise created by truck motors and refrigerator units. The legal truck parking locations where complaints have been received are listed below and shown on Exhibit A. The list includes both sight problems and noise complaints and are shown in order with streets having the most complaints at the top. • Cherokee Lane - all • Kettleman Lane - all • Lockeford Street - east and west of Pleasant Avenue • Tokav Street - east of Main Street • Stockton Street - north of Neuharth Drive and south of Mission Street • Mills Avenue - south of Turner Road • Bedanan Road - south of Industrial Way • Pleasant Avenue - north of Lockeford Street • Elm Street - west of Ham Lane Locations where complaints have been received and truck parking is illegal under the existing truck parking ordinance are listed below. • Harney Lane - east of Hutchins Street • Ham Lane - south of Vine Street • Walnut Street - west of Ham Lanc • Kettleman Lane - east of Central Avenue (Lodi Academy) • Central Avenue - r.orth of Kettleman Lane • Cherokee Lane - south of Almond Drive • Lower Sacramento Road - south of Turner Road Truck Travel Approximately one out of six (15%) of the truck complaints received are related to truck travel on City streets. The streets where truck travel is legal and complaints have been received are listed below and shown on Exhibit B. They are listed in order with the streets with the most complaints at the top. • Mills Avenue - Turner Road to Lodi Avenue • Pioneer Drive - west of Cherokee Lane • Church Street - south of Kettleman Lane • Wimbledon Drive - east of Ham tank • Century Boulevard - east of Cherokee Lane (complaints regarding potential truck traffic when street is extended to Stockton Street in 1993) No complaints have been received at locations where truck travel is currently restricted. however, the street having the most truck travel complaints w -as Almond Drive. This strcct is not listed above since commercial vehicle restrictions were implemented by City Council in November of 1992. TRUCK I.DOC i 01/27/93 • EXISTING REGULATIONS and RESTRICTED LOCATIONS Truck Parking The city's existing truck parking ordinance prohibits truck parking on any street in a "residential district" (Exhibit C). A "residential district" is donned as residentially zoned areas designated by the City Zoning Code (any "R-" district) and includes schools, parks, playgrounds, community centers. churches. museums. golf courses (excluding miniature golf courses) and similar recreational uses of a noncommercial nature, and public utility service buildings located in a residential district Commercial vehicles in the process of being loaded or unloaded are exempt from this restriction. Truck parking is legal adjacent to all other areas such as areas zoned commercial and industrial. However, all vehicles, including commercial vehicles are subject to the 72 consecutive hour parking limit specified in the Lodi Municipal Code. Since zoning boundaries extend only to the middle of the street, the existing truck parking ordinance allows truck parking across the street from some residences. Wben this situation occurs on a narrow street, the noise created by trucks is still close enough to affect these residents. In addition to the existing truck parking ordinance, section 22507 of the California Vehicle Code (Exhibit D) allows local authorities to prohibit or restrict the stopping, standing or parking of vehicles six feet or more in height within 100 feet of any intersection, on certain streets or highways, or portions thereof, during all or certain portions of the day. This restriction is selective since it prohibits the parking of only the vehicles creating a sight problem (vehicles six feet or more in height). Parking of vehicles under six feet high would be permitted This is especially effective at locations where parking demand is high or where eliminating parking for all vehicles would create a hardship for the adjacent business. Currently this restriction exists on the street shown below. The Police Department has indicated that they have experienced no enforcement problems with this installation. • Cherokee Lane - (west side) from Ahnond Drive to 100 feet north of Almond Drive Truck Travel Currently, city wide truck travel is not regulated except for four residential streets and street segments where truck travel is restricted. These restrictions are based on both vehicle weight and number of axles. Tne enforcement of ekes, restrictions are performed by the Police Department. Currently, only one officer is trained to identify and cttc commercial vebidts exceeding posted weight restrictions. In order to cite violators using this type of restriction, the vebide must be driven to the truck scale on Main Street north of Lodi Avenue to be weighed. Since this is the only scale available within a reasonable distance, and it is not open 24 hours a day, this restriction is rarely enforced. It is easier for the Police Department to enforce truck travel restrictions based on the number of vehicle axles since any police officer can cite violators and no vehicle weighing is required. All of the existing streets with commercial vehicle restrictions are shown below. • Holly Drive - commercial vehicles and vehicles over three tons prohibited • Tokay Street from Stockton Street to Cherokee Lane - commercial vehicles and vehicles over five tons prohibited • Almond Drive from Cherokee Lane to Stockton Street - commercial vehicles with three or more axles arc prohibited • Turner Road from Highway 99 to Lower Sacramento Road (north) - commercial vehicles with three axles or more are prohibited (excluding commercial vehicles originating or making deliveries within the City of Lodi) TRUCK t . DOC 2 01127/93 • PAST DISCUSSION/COUNCIL ACTION Past discussion and council action related to truck parking and truck routes are shown on Appendix 2. • ALTERNATIVES Staff has prepared three alternatives addressing these alternatives. The first alternative is to modify the existing truck parking ordinance (Lodi Municipal Code Section (LMC) 10.52.050) by changing the definition of "residential district". The second alternative is to consider repealing the existing truck parking ordinance and establishing a "Truck Route" system, thereby allowing truck parking only on those routes. The third alternative is to leave the existing truck parking ordinance as is, and install "no parking" zones as truck parking problems are reported. Discussion on these alternatives is shown blow. The advantages and disadvantages to these alternatives are summarized on Exhibit E. Alternative 1 MODIFY THE EXISTING TRUCK PARKING ORDINANCE (LMC 10.52.050) Change the definition of "residential district", for the purpose of this section, to state that if each side of the street are zoned differently, the more restrictive zone would apply to both sides of the street. This definition, as proposed, would not apply to state highways, wide streets (four lanes or more), or where the residential site of the street has reverse frontage. All of the other restrictions in the existing truck parking ordinance would remain in effect. Staff has discussed this defuution change with the City Attorney, Municip-i Court Judges, and Police Chief and received no objections. The basic change that will occur with this modification is the prohibition of truck parking in areas that the existing truck parking ordinance was originally designed to take care of, but cod not due to the interpretation of "residential district". Under this alternative, truck parkin; would be prohibited adjacent to non -residentially zoned areas located on two lane roadways if a "residential district" exists across the street unless it has reverse frontage. This would result in truck parking continuing to be legal adjacent to shopping centers and eating establishments on Kettleman Lane and on Turrer Road. Truck parking in areas such as north Mills Avenue and Church Street south of Kettleman Lane where residences exist across the street would be illegal. The large map (Exhibit F) indicates existing restricted areas and additional areas where truck parking would be restricted under this definition. Alternative 2 REPEAL.EXISTING TRUCK PARKING ORDNANCE AND ESTABLISH TRUCK ROUTE SYSTEM This alternative would designate streets where through truck travel would be permitted. Only trucks in the process of making a pick up or delivery would be allowed to deviate from these routes. thus parking off the route would be prohibited. Truck parking in commercial and industrial areas not on a truck route would be illegal. The initial proposed truck routes arc the same streets and portions of streets proposed to city council when the traffic resolution was adopted in October of 1987. These routes are indicated on .Appendix 7 and show on Exhibit G. TRUCK t. DOC 01/27/93 Alternative 3 MAKE NO CHANGES TO THE EXISTING TRUCK PARKING ORDINANCE AND INSTALL "NO PARKING" ZONES AS FUTURE PROBLEMS OCCUR Posting "ra parking" signs to regulate truck parking in areas not covered by the existing truck parking ordinance would require removing on -strut parking for an vehicles just for the purpose of discouraging truck parking. If the truck parking problems arc occurring adjacent to intersections, restricting truck parking of vehicles six feet in heigh: and over can be used. Either of these methods will result in the installation and maintenance of numerous restricted parking zone signs. • DISCUSSION: Alternative 1 Alternative l satisfies the city's intent to prohibit truck parking near residences. Under this alternative truck parking would only be allowed where residences exist in commercial zone districts. Parking at the few locations where this condition i. xists can be restricted if truck parking problems occur. This alternative would result in restricting truck parking on 4 of the 1 I streets and street segments where truck parking complaints have been reported. The only location on the complaint list where truck parking would be legal adjacent to residences is on Lockeford Street east of Pleasant Avenue, because in this area both sides of Lockeford Street is zoned commercial. Under this alternative, the availability of truck parking adjacent to the PCP cannery area on Stockton Street and General Mills on Mills Avatne would be affected Both PCP and General Mills have indicated that on street parking for trucks is not needed for their businesses. Alternative 2 Alternative 2 will severely reduce the number of locations where truck parking would be allowed since truck parking is allowed only on truck routes. If this alternative is chosen, restricting truck parking adjacent to residences along these routes should be restricted in a similar fashion as the existing truck parking ordinance. Also, since determining truck route violators is difficult, the benefit of a truck route just for the purpose of restricting truck parking may be overkill. None of the streets where truck travel complaints have been reported are recommended as truck routes. Alternative 3 Alternative 3 would continue to make it difficult to regulate track parking since it would be legal at all locations not covered by the existing truck parking ordinance or where no other parking restrictions exist. Regulating truck parking under this alternative will require the continued evaluation and council action on parking restriction locations where truck parking is a problem. Due to the amount of passenger vehicle parking that would have to be eliminated and the quantity of "no parking" signs that would have to be installed and maintained, this alternative is not practical. TRUCK I . DOC 4 01/27/93 1 • RECOMMENDATION: The following three proposed modifications to existing ordinances will require that a public hearing be set. Regardless if council chooses to address the existing truck parking situation, staff feels that it important that the remaining ordinance modifications be made to clarify the weight limit used to restrict commercial vehicle parking and the use of vehicle axles in regulating vehicle travel, since they are currently being enforced by the Police Department The three proposed modifications are shown below. In regards to truck pawing on city streets, staff recommends that the city council approve changing the definition of "residential district" as defined in LMC Section 10.52.050 (Alternative 1), since it satisfies the city's intent to prohibit truck parking near residences while providing considerably more available truck parking than Alternative 2. Also, the amount of additional restricted area will not severely affect the total amount of citywide truck parking currently available. Staff has no major objections to Alternative 2 since it can be used to regulate truck travel as well as truck parking and can be written to restrict truck parking in residential areas, similar to the existing truck parking ordinance. Staffs major concern is the considerable reduction of available truck parking and that truck parking would not be permitted in commercial an industrial areas off of the truck routes. Staff does not recommend Alternative 3 due to its ineffectiveness in controlling truck parking and the cost to evaluate, install and maintain "no parking" zones. Also, an a cessive amount of passenger vehicle parking would have to be eliminated in order to keep trucks from parking in undesirable areas. Staff's other concern regarding this code section (LMC 10.52.050), is how weight limit restrictions are specified. To conform with the California Vehicle Code, it is recommended that the "maximum gross weight of five tons" be changed to "maximum gross vehicle weight rating of 10,000 pounds". The final item for council review is the existing ordinance regulating commercial vehicle travel on city streets (LMC 10.52.010). Staff feels the wording should be changed in order to make it clear that it is legal to regulate vehicle travel based on the number of axles the vehicle has, as provided in the California Vehicle Code. The existing ordinance is attached as Exhibit H. Due to the ease of enforcement provided based on vehicle axles, staff also recommends that the streets listed below be changed as shown. Any future vehicle travel restrictions will be proposed based on vehicle axles. • H Ily Drive (all), change from "commercial vehicles and vehicles over 3 tons prohibited" to "commercial vehicles over 2 axles prohibited" • Tokay Street (from Stock -ton Street to Cherokee Lane), change from "commercial vehicles and vehicles over 5 tons prohibited" to "commercial vehicles over 2 axles prohibited" TRUCK I . DOC 3 01/27/93 Avuendiz 1 The following concerns were expressed at the meeting with the Ch.unber of Commerce and through the city's traffic complaint system. • If the City is going to continue to eliminate truck parking, they should provide parking lots. Providing off-site parking lots for trucks is not a responsibility of the City; however, regulating parking in the public right-of-way is. The City's responsibility is to provide roadways that are safe to travel and review Locations where truck parking problems are reported. • The trucking industry provides an important service to the City so we should not discourage trucking in Lodi by regulating truck parking. The trucking industry does provide a valuable service to the city. Under the existing ordinance, there are several locations in the city where truck parking is legal. • Would small commercial businesses in areas that are surrounded primarily by residences be allowed to park their trucks on the street. Trucks belonging to a commercial business would be allowed to park on the street adjacent to their business unless they are on a two lane street where the opposite side of the street is in a "residential district" without reverse frontage. On site parking will not be affected. • Should the weight limitations specified in the existing truck parking ordinance be reduced or split into categories to allow "U -Haul" and "Ryder" type of trucks. Reducing or splitting weight limitations into categories is not recommended. Since the idea behind restricting truck parking is to prohibit the size of truck that could become a problem, reducing weight limitations could result in an ineffective ordinance by permitting unwanted truck parking. Splitting weight limitations into categories would make enforcement very difficult for Police Officers. Not on:, ::o: ld this option require many different types of signs and be confusing to drivers it would also require special training for the Police Department to be able to determine which category the truck belongs in as well as if the truck is illegal or not. Since truck parking is permitted in residential areas during deliveries and pick ups there does not seem to be a need to lower the existing weight limitations to allow these types of trucks. TRUCK2.DOC b 01/22/93 11 • Trucks should be parked only for deliveries, no other reason Allowing trucks to park only while making deliveries would certainly take care of maty of our truck parking problems; however, it is not very reasonable solution to the truck parking problem. Just like everyone else, trucks drivers may need to stop to eat, sleep or rest. The city feels it reasonable to permit truck parking for these purposes as Iong as they are in a suitable location. • Residential streets in Lodi are too narrow to allow truck parking It is agreed that truck parking should not be permitted on residential streets for many reasons in addition to street width. Under the existing truck parking ordinance, truck parking is permitted on only a few residential streets where commercial or industriai zoning exists on one side of the street. • Eliminate truck parking on residential streets See comment to preceding item. • Trucking Companies in or near the city limits should have parking facilities for their equipment Based on field surveys related to complaints, staff does not believe that trucks from local trucking companies play much of a role in the truck parking problems reported to the city. Staff believes that most of the truck parking problems in residential areas are due to independent truckers who live in or are visiting Lodi. • Parked trucks give Lodi the picte,e that we do not care about the residents of our community The reason a truck parking ordinance was created is to benefit the residents in the community. Based on all of the goods and services provided by the trucking industry, truck parking is bound to occur. The city is doing as much as possible to balance the need for truck service and the needs of the community. • Streets with no commercial uses should be posted with a weight limit Posting weight limit signs on every street in town where no commercial uses exists is not a reasonable solution due to the large number of signs which would have to be installed and maintained. Establishing a truck route system is the only way to regulate citywide truck travel since it would not allow truck travel off of the route unless in the process of making a pick up or delivery. TRUCK2.DOC % 01/22/93 1 Appendix 2 • TRUCK PARKING November 1987 - Truck Parking Ordinance (L.M.C. 10.52.050) adopted by city council June 1992 - Staff proposed modifications to the existing truck parking ordinance Council directed staff to discuss modifications with the trucking industry, Pacific Coast Producers, and the Chamber of Commerce. • TRUCK ROUTES November of 1986 - Establishing truck routes in Lodi was first discussed The consulting firm of TIKM conducted an analysis of potential truck routes through the city. The recommended truck routes were: • Cherokee Lane - all • Hutchins Street - south of Kettleman Lane • Kettleman Lane (State Highway 12) - all • Lower Sacramento Road - all • Turner Road - from Lower Sacramento Road/Woodhaven Lane to Lower Sacramento Road (nor`') Kettleman Lane is part of the State Highway System and is therefore under Caltrans jurisdiction. July, August, and October of 1987- Public meetings were held regarding truck routes As a result of these meetings between the city and the trucking industry the following streets were proposed as truck routes. The streets staff recommended by both trucking firms and city staff are indicated with an asterisk ('). The remaining streets staff had no recommendation on. • Beckman Road - from Kettleman to Victor • • Bedanan Road - from Lockeford to Turner • Cherokee Lane - all • • Cluff Avenue - from Turner to Victor • • Ham Lane - from Harney to Turner • Hutchins Street - from Kettleman to Lodi Hutchins Street - Kettleman to Harney • Kettleman Lane (State Highway 12) - all * • Lodi Avenue - all Lower Sacramento Road - all * Stockton Street - all • Tumer Road - all * • Victor Road - all * TRUCK3.DOC 8 0l/22J93 1 October 1987 - Traffic Ordinance introduced excluding the entire section on commercial vehicles and truck routes This section was excluded due to objections by the residents and businesses on Kettleman Lane and because it was determined that any action by the council to establish Turner Road as a truck route would require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) because establishing a weight limit could have a significant impact on the business community and other streets and residents. The estimated cost for the preparation of this EIR was 542,000 (1987 estimate). January 1988 - Staff recommends that the city does not proceed with the EIR In spite of the advantages provided by the establishment of truck routes staff had some reservations about having an EIR prepared. Also, since in January of 1988 a new state law went into effect allowing cities to restrict truck parking in residentially zoned areas, thus, the primary reason truck routes were considered no longer applies. June 1988 - Council directed staff to prepare a study on prohibiting through trucks on Turner Road July 1988 - Resolution number 88-97 adopted restricting through trucks on Turner Road As directed by council, staff presented resolution number 88-97, prohibiting trucks on Turner Road between Highway 99 and Lown Sacramento Road (north). The restriction does nM apply to truck traffic originating or making deliveries within the city of Lodi.

We are a commercial comer in which the city ordinarce allows overnight commercial truck parking. We feel these large truck and trailers have no place clustered at neighborhood commercial sites for the following reasons: 1. The trucks create a dangerous hindrance to ingress and egress traffic to adjacent properties. 2. The truck parking allows diesel powered refrigerated trucks to run all night. In our situation it is less than 200 feet from our Hotel and personal home. These motors have a percussion effect that make it impossible to sleep. 3. The city requires WI business to provide on site parking. Off sita truck and trailer parking seems inconsistent with this ordinance. 4. In our situation, trucks must pass through residential neighborhoods to get parked or turned around. 5. Multiple truck perking bring visual blight to our comer. For these reasons we feel trucks have no place in residential neighborhoods. They belong in truck routes and industrial areas. We urge you to change this ordinance to disallow truck and trailer parking in neighborhood commercial properties. Sincerely, a/ Del G.

Ronsko Public Works Director Box 301'16 Lodi, G 95241-1910 Dear Jack, This letter is in regards to the Truck Parking and Tavel Anematives Ordinance which comes up for public hearing in the March 3, 1993, City Council meeting. We have studied the alternatives proposed by the Public Works Staff and are in complete agreement with their recommendation on the first alternative which would modify the truck parking ordinance by changing the definition of residential district. To assist in the objective to minimize truck parking on Qty streets, General Mills will assure that there is adequate parking on plant grounds for all our true: traffic. We would, however, appreciate your support to relieve an area of concern. In Exhibit B of the port on Truck Parking and Trawl on Qty Streets. Mills Avenue has been identified as a 'Truck Travel Problem Area' from Turner Road to Lodi Avenue. It is of extreme importance to General Mills that truck travel not be restricted on that portion of Mills Avenue from Turner Road to our Mills Avenue entrance. Our truck scale is located at that gate and all trucks delivering ingredients are weighed In and out. Also, the Mills Avenue entrance Is needed to avoid tre,8ic back up at the Turner Road entrance. ;n closure, I would like to express my appreciation for your attetulon to our concerns prior to the council meeting.

As you may be aware, a public hearing reg. .ng truck parking and truck travel is scheduled to be reviewed by city council ou Wednesday, Mirch 3,1993. The meeting will be held in the City Council Chamber, Carnegie Form, 305 West Pine Street and will begin at 7:30 p.m. Additional information regarding this meeting will be sent to you prior to the meeting. The concerns indicated in your letter sent to the Me.yor and City Council have also been for ^•rted to the Public Works Department. and will be included with other comments received on this subject. Staffs recommendation regarding this issue is to modify to the existing Truck Parking Ordinance and not establish a Truck Route System. W ve— er, if council chooses to establish a Truck Route System, staff would not reconunend Mills Avenue as a truck route. If council does not establish a Truck Route System, this does not mean that Mills Avenue could not be studied separately for a commercial vehicle restriction and presented to council at future meeting. We urge you to attend this meeting if you would like to express your support of establishing a Truck Route System.

BOX 3006 LOD+, CALIFORNIA 95241.1910 (209) 334.5634 AX(IO9) 311.f,79S February 22.1993 Subject: Truck Travel on Mills Avenue between Lodi Avenue to Turncr Road THOMAS A. PETERSON City Manager JENNIFER M PERRIN City Clerk )BOB McNATT City Attorney Thank you for expressing your concerns regarding truck travel on Mills Avenue between Lodi Avenue and Turner Road. As you may be aware, a public hearing regarding truck parking and truck travel is scheduled to be reviewed by city council on Wednesday, March 3,1993. The meeting will be held in the City Council Chamber, Carnegie Forum. 305 West Pine Street and Will begin at 7:30 p.m. Additional information regarding this meeting will be sent to you prior to the meeting. The concerts indicated in your letter scnt to the Mayor and City Council have also been forwarded to the Public Works Department, and will be included with other comments received on this subject. Stall's recommendation regarding this issue is to modify to thc existing Truck Parking Ordinance and not establish a Truck Route System. However. if council chooses to establish a Truck Route System, staff would not recommend Mills Avenue as a truck route. If council does not establish a Truck Route System, this does not mean that Mills Avenue could not be studied separately for a commercial vehicle restriction and presented to council at future meeting. We urge you to attend this meeting if you would like to express your support of establishing a Truck Route System. If you have any gum -dons or comments regarding this letter or thc public hearing. please contact Rick Kiriu or me at 333-6706. Paula ).
