Gilbert, Director of Public Works Date: January 24, 2003 (Council Meeting 2 -5 -03) Subject: Resolution No. 2003- Establishing a "Parking in Excess of One -Hour by Permit Only" Zone on Imbach Place and a Portion of Borges Drive BACKGROUND 1. "One -Hour Parking / Permits Exempt" parking restrictions have been established in the neighborhoods adjacent to Moorpark College. The limits of the existing parking restrictions, are shown on map attached as Exhibit 1. 2. A few months ago City staff was contacted by a resident of Harte Lane, who requested that the subject parking restrictions be extended to include Borges Drive, Alumni Way and Harte Lane. Staff prepared a Petition for that party to circulate in that neighborhood, to determine support for the proposal. The limits of the expanded enforcement area proposed in that Petition are shown on the map attached as Exhibit 2. To date, that party has not presented that Petition to the City. 3. Subsequently, Mrs. Ventimiglia, a resident of Imbach Place, inquired about the same matter. She was advised of the pending efforts being undertaken by the abovementioned party. When it appeared that progress on those efforts was stalled, Mrs. Ventimiglia asked for a copy of the above mentioned Petition and stated that she would undertake its circulation. 4. Mrs. Vetimiglia decided to limit circulation of the Petition to Imbach Palace and that portion of Borges Drive east of Hearon Drive. On January 15, Mrs. Ventimiglia presented the Petition to the City Council. Permit parking borges Permit Only Parking: Borges Drive January 24, 2003 Page 2 DISCUSSION A. Proposed Limits of Expanded Parkinq Restrictions Mrs. Ventimiglia has requested that the subject parking restrictions be established on Imbach Place and on that portion of Borges Drive east of Alumni Way [see map attached as Exhibit 3]. B. Petition Results A copy of the Petition is on file with the City Clerk. The results of the Petition are illustrated on the map attached as Exhibit 4. C. Proposed Parking Restrictions Attached for consideration is a Resolution [Exhibit 6] which, if adopted, would establish a "One- Hour" parking limit on the subject streets, between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. The Resolution also provides for the issuance of City Permits to residents in the affected area (see discussion of Permits below). This parking restriction is identical to the existing parking restrictions on University Drive and other streets just east of the subject area. D. Signs Approximately eleven signs will have to be installed, at a cost to the City of approximately $800 [$200 materials and $600 labor]. E. Permit Process A summary of the permit process and requirements is attached as Exhibit 5. F. Hearina Notice Per City Council policy, the establishment of this type of parking restriction requires consideration by the City Council at a public hearing, and that notice of such public hearing be sent to all affected property owners and /or residents. A notice of this hearing was mailed to all of the property owners and /or residents within the limits of the affected area as depicted on the map attached as Exhibit 3.

Migration It is anticipated by staff that the problem may migrate to the area west of the westerly limits of the area proposed for the new parking restriction. The options are: • To proceed with the adoption of the attached Resolution and, in the event the problem reoccurs in the neighborhood just west of the affected area, entertain any future request from that area to again expand the enforcement area; or • To defer the matter and direct staff to distribute a Questionnaire to the residents within the originally identified area [Exhibit 21 seeking opinions regarding the expansion of the subject parking restrictions into those neighborhoods. Staff recommends the first option. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Adopt Resolution No. 2003- (Exhibit 6) establishing a "One - Hour Parking - Permits Exempt" zone on Imbach Place and Borges Drive.
