Gilbert, Director of Public Works DATE: July 24, 1990 (Council. Meeting 8 -1 -90) SUBJECT: Consider the Restriction of Over Night Parking on a Portion of the South Side of Campus Park Drive East of Marquette Street OVERVIEW This presents for consideration a Resolution prohibiting over night parking on Campus Park Drivf> in the vicinity of Griffin Park. DISCUSSION A. Recent Action In recent months City Council has enacted certain new traffic control measures and parking restrictions along Campus Park Drive in an effort to improve vehicular and pedestrian safety. B. Evaluation The implementation and impact of these (and previously existing) traffic measures are being re- evaluated by the City Engineer. When and if improvements or refinements are deemed warranted, an appropriate recommendation will for formulated for City Council consideration. 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 Over Night Parking August 1, 1990 Page 2 C. Pedestrian Safety Near Griffin Park One such improvement is recommended at this time. There have been no parking restrictions imposed on that portion of Campus Park Drive next to Griffin Park. Parking has been permitted this area in order to provide convenient parking for visitors to the park. An unforeseen side effect of this absence of parking controls has been the parking of vehicles in this area for extended periods of time. In the opinion of staff, this practice is incompatible with the high level of pedestrian use associated with a park. The parking of vehicles for extended periods of time could be prevented by prohibiting over night parking in the area. This would still allow for parkinq normally associated with the use of the park. RECOMMENDATION Adopt. the attached resolution prohibiting parking in the subject area between the hours of 10:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M.
