AGENDA REPORT
C = TY OF MOORPARK
The Honorable City Council
Kenneth C. Gilbert, Director of Public Works
January 3, 1997 (Council Meeting 1- 15 -97)
SUBJECT: Consider a Resolution No. 97- Establishing Certain
Parking Restrictions on Liberty Bell Road
There are a number of development projects planned or under
construction along Liberty Bell Road south of Los Angeles
Avenue. 'Those projects include the Burger King Restaurant, a
proposed development for the vacant property on the west side of
the street and the future opening of the Arroyo Vista Community
Park Pedestrian Bridge. With these new attractions it is
anticipated that traffic volumes and need for on- street parking
in the area will increase.
Although certain parking restriction signs have been installed
on Liberty Bell Road south of Los Angeles Avenue, staff can find
no record of a resolution in support of those restrictions. It
is recommended, therefore, that the type and limits of any
desired parking restrictions on this street be identified and
that the City Council adopt a Resolution establishing those
parking restrictions.
Street Width: The curb -to -curb width of Liberty Bell Road just
south of Los Angeles Avenue is fifty feet (501). As one
proceeds south the street narrows. When the vacant property on
the west side of Liberty Bell Road develops, the northerly
portion of the street will be widened to accommodate two travel
lanes, a left turn lane and two bike lanes. Further south the
left turn lane may not be required and the width of the street
may narrower. This ultimate design for this street includes
bike lanes leading to and from the Pedestrian bridge to be
constructed at the south end of the street.
1--15- l5 7
On- Street Parking: There are residential properties fronting
Liberty Bell Road south of James Weak Avenue. It is proposed,
therefore, that there be no parking restriction in this area,
and that ultimately there be a twelve feet (121) wide combined
Bike Lane / Parking Lane on the east side of the street in this
area.
