Consider an ordinance prohibiting parking during certain time periods on Plantation Cove and a portion of Plantation Drive. (Second Reading) Resource: Jim Nuse, Public Works Director Tom Word, Chief Traffic Engineer History: We have received numerous requests regarding the safety of children whose parents use the Plantation Cove as a drop off and pick up area for the elementary school. After our engineering evaluation, it was determined that this practice poses a safety hazard to children and a congestion factor to residents in the immediate area. We are recommending that an ordinance be established that would prohibit stopping, standing or parking during school zone hours. This school -parking zone will remain in effect until repealed by ordinance. Funding: Cost: $280 Source of funds: Operating Budget Outside Resources: N/A Impact: Will provide improved mobility for school traffic and residents of immediate area with less congestion to affected streets under the no parking ordinance. Benefit: Greater safety to residents of area and improved safety of children. Public Comment: N/A Sponsor: N/A
