SUBJECT: REMOVAL OF ON -STREET PARKING ON CARROLL WAY
At the City Council meeting of May 19, 1980, Mr. Ralph Welsh requested the permanent
removal of on -street parking along Carroll Way, northerly of Seventeenth Street.
Staff has reviewed this request and is in concurrence. However, it is felt that this
parking prohibition should be expanded to include both sides of Medford Avenue betweer
Carroll Way and Yorba Street.
Carroll Way and Medford Avenue is classified as a local collector street with sixty
(60) feet of right-of-way width and forty (40) feet roadway between curbs. Yorba
Street southerly of Seventeenth Street is classified as a secondary arterial highway
with eighty (80) feet of right-of-way and sixty-four (64) feet between curbs. On -
street parking on Yorba Street is prohibited because of the use of painted center
medians for protected left turn pockets and other traffic control. Carroll Way pre-
sently has three driveway openings each on both the westerly and easterly sides of
the street. In addition, the alignment of Carroll Way is curvilinear. Medford
Avenue has three driveway openings on the southerly side of the street.
The proposed parking removal on both of these streets will not improve the gasoline
line problems in the vicinity of the gas station at the northwesterly corner of
Seventeenth Street and Carroll Way.
As of the writing of this Staff report, none of the following businesses have been
contacted regarding this proposed on -street parking removal:
1. Ralphs Grocery
2. Manny's Restaurant
3. Chevron Gasoline Station
However, a copy of this report will be mailed to each of these businesses so that
they may provide any input to the proposed parking restriction.
Due to the late date of the fiscal year, there will not be sufficient funds within
the signing and striping account to purchase these signs during the 1979-80 fiscal
year. Therefore, if the action is approved, it is suggested that purchase and in-
stallation be delayed until after the 1980-81 Budget has been adopted sometime after
July 1, 1980.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Tustin City Council at their meeting of June 2, 1980
authorize the removal of the on -street parking on both sides of the following

streets:

to be implemented as soon as feasible after July 1, 1980.
