THE CITY OF 6 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT pL£ ASANTON® June 2, 2009 Community Development Traffic Engineering Division TITLE: ADOPT RESOLUTION REPLACING THE TWO -HOUR LIMITED TIME PARKING ZONE WITH A THREE -HOUR LIMITED TIME PARKING ZONE IN THE DOWNTOWN SUMMARY The Pleasanton Downtown Association has requested that the City replace existing two hour parking zones in the downtown with three -hour parking zones. The Municipal Code sets forth various limited time parking zones and provides that the City Council by resolution may designate a street as a limited time parking zone. Previously, Section 11.36.210 of the Pleasanton Municipal Code only permitted twenty- minute, one -hour, two -hour and four -hour parking zones. At the May 5, 2009, Council meeting, staff introduced an ordinance amending the Municipal Code to establish a three -hour limited time parking zone category. The ordinance was adopted at the May 19, 2009, City Council meeting, and will become effective 30 days from that date (June 19). To assist the Pleasanton Downtown Association, staff would like to see three -hour limited time parking implemented as soon as possible. Because the ordinance establishing the three -hour category must become effective prior to establishment of three -hour limited time parking in the downtown, the resolution recommended for adoption contains language allowing three -hour limited time parking to be established once the ordinance becomes effective. RECOMMENDATION Adopt the attached resolution replacing the existing two -hour parking limited time parking zone in the downtown area with a three -hour limited time parking zone. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Existing two -hour limited time parking zone signage will be replaced with three -hour limited time parking zone signage. The Pleasanton Downtown Association will be responsible for the cost of the replacement signage. City staff will purchase and install the signage.
