LEDENDECKER, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER REQUEST TO REMOVE PARKING RESTRICTIONS ON MYFORD ROAD AND SUBJECT: HERITAGE WAY (ARCADA CONDOMINIUM DEVELOPMENT -EAST TUSTIN TRACT NO. 13096) RECOMMENDATIONS: Pleasure of the City Council. BACKGROUND: The City has received a letter dated November 12, 1992 from the Arcada Community Association and two letters and a petition dated November 23, 1992 and November 30, 1992 from Mr. James C. Barnes, a resident of the Arcada Development, regarding the noted subject. Copies of the three letters and the petition are attached for your information. The Arcada Development is located in the East Tustin area and is bordered by Myford Road, Heritage Way, and Bryan Avenue. Currently, parking is prohibited on all of the aforementioned streets. When built -out the Arcada Condominium Development will contain 240 condominium residences. DISCUSSION: It has been noted that the attached petition was not submitted by the Arcada Community Association and that it contains signatures from duplicate addresses. If the Council so directs, the City's Traffic Engineering Section will coordinate a study of the subject request and investigate the feasibility of removing parking restrictions on Myford Road and Heritage Way. It should be noted that there are several other developments within the •East Tustin area that may experience similar situations and any relaxation of on -street parking in this area may set a precedence for the East Tustin Community. The Engineering Division will require outside consultant assistance to fully prepare such a study. However, funding for such types of studies have not been included in the current Engineering Division budget. oe ober S. Ledendecker Doug as R.

Per your telephone conversation of October 22, 1992 with Jack Caswell, President of the Board of Directors of the above referenced association, please accept this as a request for the Council's consideration of allowing parking along Heritage. I am sure you are aware from your conversation with Mr. Caswell of our existing parking problem in that each resident within Arcada has two ( 2 ) assigned parking spaces,, and f or the 237 res idents .( at build -out) there will be a total of 95 guest parking spaces, including two (2) handicap spaces. We have requested that residents register their vehicles with the Association and in reviewing this information, find that many. residents have grown children or other situations. which have resulted in three or four vehicles per unit. Based on the registration information we expect that we will have 500-600 vehicles belonging to residents trying to park within their own community, not to mention visitors and guests. As you can see, this severely limits the spaces for the parking of a third or fourth owned car, or a visitor's vehicle. Even if residents utilized the guest parking areas, there will still be a drastic shortage of spaces, thereby forcing residents and their guests to park on city streets in other neighborhoods. The Board of Directors of this Association has spent countless hours in meetings and research in an effort to resolve the parking problem within their community. The Board has been attacked by residents who have more than two vehicles and have no place to park them, as well as hearing from unhappy residents who have visitors -W- over with no place to park. c% Action Property Management, Inc. 701 S. Parker Street, Suite 1600, Orange, California 92668 (714) 285-2600 Bob Ledendecker Director of Public 4orks November 12, 1992 Page two We are requesting that parking be permitted along Heritage from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. seven days per week. This would greatly benefit the members of this association and ease the parking problem within the community. We would appreciate you hand -carrying this request to the City Council with a request that this matter be placed on the agenda for the earliest possible meeting.

A few persons who did not sign the petition were concerned that no restrictions otostreethe Laurel ing would being people from outside the community Glen park across the street from Arcada. If the city does not want to have unrestricted parking n n Myford Road or Heritage Way, I would ask that permit parking be considered. The city could sell parking permits to residents, as other cities have done, and -either MyfordRRlT• dor Heritage Way could be posted "NO PARKING EXCEPT BY PE If the city charged $10 or $15 per month for a parking permit, this would greatly alleviate our problem.
