C = TY O F MOORPARK
TO: The Honorable City Council y _�
FRO O: Kenneth C. Gilbert Director of Public Works jl
DAT�: September 28, 1993 (Council Meeting 10- 06 -93)
SUB4fECT: Consider Resolution No. Establishing NO STOPPING
ANYTIME Zones on Both Sides of Moorpark Avenue and
Walnut Canyon Road from Los Angeles Avenue Northerly
to the City Limit
OVE VIEW
Thi requests the adoption of a Resolution establishing NO
STO PING ANYTIME zones on Moorpark Avenue and Walnut Canyon Road
(St to Route 23).
DIS USSION
The existing NO PARKING signs on Moorpark Avenue are not
sup orted by a City Resolution. These parking restrictions were
est blished by either Caltrans or the County of Ventura prior to
the dncorporation of the City of Moorpark.
It i� the opinion of staf f that the existing NO PARKING signs do
not adequately provide for traffic safety. There are signs
missing from areas which should be posted. The signs do not
exte d northerly to the narrower Walnut Canyon Road. NO PARKING
rest fictions are not consistent with the NO STOPPING ANYTIME
restirictions established on Los Angeles Avenue and other
arte ial streets elsewhere in the City. And with only one
tray 1 lane in each direction for most of this street segment,
vehi les which may legally stop for the loading and unloading of
pass angers pose a significant traffic hazard.
The attached resolution requires the proposed action to be
appr�ved by Caltrans as required by the California Vehicle Code.
RECOI[MENDED ACTION
Adop� the attached resolution establishing NO STOPPING ANYTIME
zone ion both sides of Moorpark Avenue and Walnut Canyon Road
from!Los Anaeles Avenue northerlv to the Citv Limit.
