DATE: November 3, 1997
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting, November 13, 1997
ITEM: 9D. Consider an ordinance prohibiting the parking of vehicle on
weekdays during the hours of 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. to 4
p.m. on Falcon Drive from Wyoming Springs Drive to Quail Lane.
(Second Reading)
STAFF RESOURCE PERSON: Jim Nuse
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
We have received a request to install NO PARKING signs on Falcon Drive near Wyoming
Springs Drive from the Alliance Association Management representing the Oak Creek
Home Owners Association. A number of parents have adopted this location as a drop off
and pick up point for their children attending Fern Bluff Elementary School. This practice
is creating a conflict with the school age pedestrians crossing Falcon Drive at Field Lark
Drive.
We have observed the location, and we concur that a parking prohibition would increase
safety for the students walking home. We are requesting that an ordinance be prepared
for the City Council to approve the installation of NO PARKING, STANDING, OR
STOPPING signs on Falcon Drive from Wyoming Springs Drive to Quail Lane from 7 a.m. -
9 a.m. and from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m.
Staff recommends Council approval of this ordinance.
