Action on this request was postponed pending a comprehensive review of this issue throughout the City by the Traffic Engineer. At the regular City Council meeting on October 14, 1985, the City Council introduced a Citywide ordinance which will have an effective date of April 15, 1986. Mr. Enea has requested that his initial request for parking restrictions be considered at this time. Amador Plaza Road ends at a standard cul-de-sac bulb, 1,000 feet south of Dublin Boulevard. The cul-de-sac bulb radius is not big enough for large trucks to turn around. Mr. Enea's letter notes that the trucks drive through their undeveloped lot to turn around. This has resulted in mud and rocks being carried onto the street and damage to their curbs. Amador Plaza Road south of Dublin Boulevard was not designed for continuous use by heavy vehicles. The subject property is zoned as a planned development with commercial-office and related uses. Damage to the street appears to have resulted from trailers being unhooked and left standing on their dolly pads. In addition, the parked tractor trailer rigs restrict visibility. It is recommended that the City Council conduct a public hearing, waive the reading and adopt the proposed ordinance on an urgency basis. RECEIVED OCT 3 1 1985 DUBLIN PLANNING ITEM NO.

We are concerned about a situation that has arisen and continually worsens. Large tractor-trailer rigs are parking on Amador Plaza Road and leaving the trailer dollied down, sometime for 3 and 4 days at a time. When the rigs leave the dead-end street they drive thru our undeveloped parcel and scatter mud and rocks onto the street with the tires. The street now looks like a truck stop in an industrial area. Our tenants, their employees and visitors must drive past the rigs disconnecting, hooking up and turning and we believe this creates a hazardous situation. Any assistance the City Council can give to eliminate this problem will be appreciated. Enea Brothers Enterprizes, Partner B LVD VALLEY BLVD BLVD. DUBLIN
