Elementary <br /> School exit driveway and extend to Francisco Street. <br />SUMMARY: Residents with homes along the Santa Rita Frontage Road have been <br /> experiencing a significant increase in the parking of vehicles for sale <br /> for extended periods of time. The parking of cars for sale, which tends <br /> to peak on weekends, reduces the amount of parking available for the <br /> residents. Additionally, the cars parked in the residential area bring <br /> unwanted loitering and numerous inquiries at the residential homes <br /> from interested buyers. To restore the availability of this parking to the <br /> residents and eliminate the pass-by traffic that is the direct result of the <br /> vehicles for sale, the Staff Traffic Committee recommends installation <br /> of a four-hour parking zone. <br /> The Municipal Code sets forth various limited time parking zones and <br /> provides that the City Council, by resolution, may designate a street as <br /> a limited time parking zone. Similar four-hour parking zones have <br /> been established to address the vehicles for sale problem. <br />SR:05:248 <br />Page I of 3 <br />
