Approximately $150 to implement signing changes. DESCR!PTIO}:: In 1981, Alameda County established a 435-foot two-hour parking zone on the east side of Golden Gate Drive at the request of Fox and Carskadon Management Co.,who was property manager of the buildings at 6401-6459 Golden Gate at that time. Alameda County's policy was to charge the applicant for costa involved in such requests: so Fox and Carskadon paid the cost of~the'migning.' In February of 1989, Staff received a request from SmithKline Bioscience Labs, 6511 Golden Gate Drive, to remove the two-hour parking zone. Employees of the lab had been accustomed to parking all day in the t~o-hour zone~ however, in response to a complaint, the police began enforcing the zone in February. According to representatives of the lab, their on-site parking is inadequate, and employees not only park along the street but also in the lots of some of the nearby shopping centers. Removal of the entire a35-foot two-hour zone (allowing for driveways and a fire hydrant) would provide unrestricted parking for approximately 15 to 18 cars. It should be noted that the County established two separate two-hour zones on the east side of Golden Gate Drive, one that extends from the corner of Dublin Boulevard to Crown CheYrolet's rear driveway (525 feet), and one that begins $10 feet from Dublin Boulevard and extends 435 feet to the cul-de-sac end of Golden Gate. Because of the way the County signed the two-hour zones, they have been perceived as extending the full length of the east side of Golden Gate Drive. The signing changes indicated on £xhibit 6 will better define the Staff contacted Pat Costello at Cro~,~n Chevrolet, and he prefers to leave the 525-foot two-houz' zone along Crown's property as-is. The Tuaffic Safety Committee considered the lab's request a~d sent out a survey to othe~' businesses on Golden Gate Drive to determine if anv of them :~eue iuterested in re~aining the t~'o-hour parkiu~ zone. Responses were ITEH NO. ~. ~ COPIES TO: SmithKline Bioscience Schuck's Transmission received from five of the businesses located at 6401-6459 Golden Gate Drive. Two responses favored (or did not object to) removal of the two-hour zone. Three responses ~Jere not in favor of removing the t~o-hour zone. Copies of the responses are attached as Exhibit 4. Staff advised SmithKline Bioscience that since some of the businesses still needed the two-hour zone for customer parking, City Staff would prefer to leave the zone as-is. Subsequently, SmithKline Bioscience asked that the City Council consider a request to remove the two-hour zone in front of their property only and lea-se the two-hour zone in front of 6401-6459 Golden Gate. Notices were sent to all businesses on Golden Gate Drive, and at the time of writing this agenda statement, one communication had been received from Schuck's Transmission opposing any changes in the t;;o-hour zone. Concern was expressed by some of the businesses on Golden Gate that removal of the two-hour restriction would encourage extended parking or abandoning of vehicles on the street. Curbside parking that is otherwise unrestricted is still governed by the pro,zision of the traffic ordinance that prohibits storage of vehicles on the street for longer than 72 hours. The diagram (Exhibit 6) shows the most reasonable and economical solution from the standpoint of changing signs: removal of the parking restriction for about 117 feet of the lab's frontage. This action would provide 6 to 7 spaces in front of the lab ~ith no time limit and leave 9 to !1 two-hour spaces in front of part of the lab's property and 6401-6459 Golden Gate. It is recommended to leave at least a few two-hour spaces in front of the lab for their customer parking, as it has been noted that delivery vehicles often double-park. This proposal is not expected to completely solve the lab's parking situation. This limited parking zone was originally adopted by the County by ordinance and must therefore be repealed by ordinance. The City's Traffic Ordinance, adopted in 1987, no~¢ allows limited parking zones to be adopted by resolution. Therefore, it is recommended that the entire two-hour parking zone be repealed and that the portion that is to remain two-hour parking be adopted by resolution. Staff recommends ~ha~ the City Council conduct a public hearing, waive the reading, and introduce the ordinance repealing the two-hour parking zone at the southerly end of Golden Gate Drive, and adopt the resolution establishing a 190-foot two-hour parking zone (to become effective upon the effective date of the ordinance). -24 ORDINANCE NO. -89 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN REPEALING A LIMITED PARKING ZONE ON GOLDEN GATE DRIVE The City Council of the City of Dublin does ordain as follows: Section 1.

Box 2340 Dublin, CA 94568 Dear Mr. Thompson: On February 1, 1989 the Dublin police advised that they were going to enforce the 2 hour parking zone on Golden Gate Drive. This 2 hour zone was apparently established in 1981 at the request of a previous tenant. We find that this restriction is not necessary for our operation and would like you to consider lifting the 2-hour parking limitation on the east side of Golden Gate Drive-.- - We 'appreciate your consideration in this matter.

Box 2340 Dublin, California 94568 Dear Mr. Thompson: Thank you for your letter of March 23, 1989 regarding the two- hour parking zone on Golden Gate Drive. We understand the concerns of our neighbors, but feel an equitable arrangement can be reached regarding this situation. As this zone restricts the entire east side of Golden Gate Drive, we would like to suggest that the 2 hour parking restriction be limited to the area in front of the businesses located in 6401-6459 Golden Gate complex. We are requesting, at this time, that the City Council review the parking regulations only on the portion of Golden. Gate Drive directly in front of our property. We appreciate your consideration.
