THE CITY OF n <br /> -• O - CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT OVA <br /> pL£ASANTON• <br /> April 16, 2013 <br /> Community Development <br /> Traffic Engineering Division <br /> TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO EXPAND THE RESIDENTIAL PERMIT <br /> PARKING PROGRAM TO INCLUDE WALNUT DRIVE <br /> SUMMARY <br /> Residents of Walnut Drive have petitioned the City to expand the Residential Permit <br /> Parking Program to include their street. Staff has reviewed this request: and determined <br /> the criteria are met for installation of Residential Permit Parking. Staff recommends that <br /> the City Council approve the expansion of the Residential Permit Parking Program to <br /> include Walnut Drive. The non-resident parking from the neighboring businesses <br /> causes an inconvenience to residents. <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> Adopt the attached resolution to expand the Residential Permit Parking Program to <br /> include Walnut Drive. <br /> FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> There is an initial cost of signing, issuing permits and enforcement (estimate $2,800). <br /> Permits currently have the fee set at $10 per year to help defray costs of the program, <br /> however this fee has not been collected from residents in some time. The Police <br /> Department is currently reviewing this practice and may recommend the implementation <br /> of the collection of the fee and an increase to the fee collected. <br /> Currently the Police Department dedicates 15 to 20 hours each week for parking <br /> enforcement. This includes enforcement of all parking regulations in the City of <br /> Pleasanton. While the addition of Walnut Drive to the Residential Permit Parking <br /> Program may not create a need for additional enforcement personnel, each time a new <br /> street is added, it will add an incremental amount to the time required for administration <br /> and enforcement. <br />
