TO:
William Huston, City Manager
FROM: Public Works Department/Engineering Division
SUBJECT: MAIN STREET PARKING TIME ZONES
Ill
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That the Tustin City Council authorize the placement of a two hour any
time parking restriction along the southerly side of Main Street
adjacent to the Town Center Development and westerly of the easterly
driveway to the westerly boundary of said development.
BACKGROUND:
On January. 18, 1988, the City Council authorized the reinstatement of
on-street parking along the-southerly side of Main Street adjacent to
the Town Center Development and westerly of the most easterly driveway
to the westerly boundary of the Town Center Development. A. nO parking
zone 80 feet in length and immediately westerly of the above mentioned
riveway was retained.
At that meeting, the City Council requested staff to return with a
recommendation as to what time restrictions should be applied to the
on-street parking to minimize all day/long term parking.
DISCUSSION:
Section 5331 entitled Stopping, Standing, or Parking Restricted or
Prohibited on Certain Streets provides for the placement of the
following time zone restrictions for on-street parking:
Twenty Four Minutes
Forty Minutes
One Hour
Two Hours
Four Hours
Eight Hours
Twelve Hours
Engineering Staff has reviewed these time restrictions with the Police
Department Staff and the use of a "Two Hour Any Time" Restriction is
recommended. This two hour restriction is based upon the feasibility
of enforcement by the Police Department. Any shorter durations would
adversely effect the frequency of enforcement and person power
'vailable for said enforcement.
