01-02-1996 - Mobeck Street Parking RetricitonsCity of West Covina iMemorandum TO: City Manager and City Council FROM: Patrick J. Glover City Engineer/Public Works Director SUBJECT: MOBECK STREET PARKING RESTRICTIONS ALGElMA ITEM NO. C- 5b DATE January 2, 1996 *PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER SUMMARY: Item.No. I of the Traffic Committee Minutes from its meeting on December 19, 1995 includes an expansion of the restricted parking on Mobeck Street to include the south side . of Mobeck Street adjacent to Cameron Park and Cameron School. ' If the City Council concurs in that action, an Ordinance to revise the appropriate section of the Municipal Code is required. HISTORY With the addition of lighting for the softball field at Cameron Park, the City Council requested the Traffic Committee to review the parking prohibitions northerly of the park. This action is one of several to mitigate any impacts on the adjacent residential neighborhood. L ANALYSIS The Traffic Committee recommendation is two fold: 1. To extend the current parking restrictions to end at 10:00 p.m. rather than 7:00 p.m. This period will then cover the time that the field lights may be in use and the time for players and fans to leave the area. 2. To add restrictions for the south side of Mobeck Street. The restriction recommended is from "dusk" (one half hour after sunset) to 10:00 p.m. This time period was .selected as a balance between public and private concerns. The period is only when the lights may be on. It allows the public to use the parking except during the times affected by installing the lights. FISCAL IMPACT There will be a cost of about $2,000 to add the additional signs and change the existing signs. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council introduce the following Ordinance: ORDINANCE NO. - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WEST COVINA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION 22- 174 OF THE WEST COVINA MUNICIPAL CODE ADDING THE SOUTH SIDE OF MOBECK STREET FROM DAWLEY AVENUE TO AVINGTON AVENUE.
