At the September 21, 1988, City Council meeting, staff presented a
proposal for the establishment of a street sweeping test area. The
area proposed was a residential area in the center of town bounded by
Dorothy Avenue to the north; Millard Street to the west; Sherman Avenue
to the South; and Harry Street to the east.
All streets of the test area were to be posted for "no parking on
Mondays from 12:00 noon to 4:00 p.m.11 Emard Sweeping Company would
sweep the area with two types of sweepers, vacuum and brush. Cost of
setting up the test area was estimated to be $2,270.00.
In reviewing the proposal, the Council expressed concern related to the
cost, potential hardship of restricting parking in the test area for
four hours and possibility of cars being towed.
At the request of Councilman Harper, Council appointed Councilmembers
Galloway and Perez to meet and discuss the establishment of an
alternate test area site. On September 28, Councilmembers Galloway and
Perez, Mr. and Mrs. Hopkins, owners of Emard Sweeping, and staff met to
discuss alternate test site areas and methods for setting up a sweeping
test area.

ORDINANCE NO. __
The City of Oxnard only posts signs in areas where heavy
concentration of parking occurs; such as apartment buildings
and hospitals. I would suggest adding the words 11 Street
Sweeping 11 to the sign.
Signs to be placed on light poles or existing sign poles in
each area to reduce costs.
C. Emard Sweeping to use two types of sweeping machines in each
area, brush and vacuum.
Staff was to contact Lt. Brown to discuss alternative methods for
posting the area. However, staff has been unable to discuss this item
before presentation to you. Additionally, cost for signs and
installation have not been determined . MOORPAR K, CAUFO_RNIA
Direct staff as deemed appropriate.
