AGENDA REPORT
The Honorable City Council
Kenneth C. Gilbert, Director of Public Works
December 8, 2004 (Council Meeting 12- 15 -04)
DISCUSSION
Consider Resolution No. 2004- Establishing
a "No Stopping Anytime" Zone on Hearon Drive
A. Committee
In response to concerns raised by local residents, on December
6, 2004, the Transportation and Streets Committee
[Councilmembers Harper and Millhouse] discussed traffic control
issues at the intersection of Hearon Drive and Monroe Street.
As discussed at that meeting, one factor affecting pedestrian
safety at this intersection is the horizontal alignment (curves
in the road) of Hearon Drive north and south of the
intersection. Staff agreed that visibility would be improved if
the limits of the parking restriction on the east side of the
street at the intersection were extended.
Note: It should be noted that the existing red curb on each
side of the curb ramp on the east side of the street
at he Monroe Street intersection, was installed in
order to better implement Section 10.04.190 (P) of
the Moorpark Municipal Code prohibiting parking near
curb ramps. There is no City Council Resolution
related to this "RED" curb.
B. Staff Investiqation
Subsequent to the December 6 meeting, staff investigated the
site and determined the optimum location of additional RED
curbs in this area. Adoption of the attached Resolution will
effectuate those added parking restrictions.

C. No Stopping Zones
The attached Resolution establishes a NO STOPPING ANYTIME zone
on the east side of the Hearon Drive in the vicinity of Monroe
Avenue. In that the roadway curves away (in both directions)
from a pedestrian crossing from the west side of the street, it
was determined that visibility from that point is good and that
additional parking restrictions on the west side of the street
are not necessary.
D. Park Parkin
Staff is aware of the fact that the addition of more RED curb
eliminates curbside parking for Campus Canyon Park. It is the
intent of staff to work with the Moorpark Unified School
District to see if some of the "school parking lots" can be
opened on weekends for parking for the park.
E. Speed Feedback Sign
In addition, staff is working to install a speed feedback sign
on Hearon Drive north of Monroe for southbound drivers.
