FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Approximately $50 to paint curb. DESCRIPTION: City Staff received a request from the o~.~er of Equinox Press, 6908 Sierra Court, for a small area of 20-minute parking along the curb in front of the building. Equinox Press, a printer, is one of the few businesses along Sierra Court that has in-and-out trade. On-street parking is generally taken up by employees of other businesses in the area. TJX.i, the City's traffic engineer, investigated the request and determined that a 20-minute parking zone for a few cars would not present a safety hazard. Notices have been mailed to other offices in the same building, as well as neighboring properties, advising them of the public hearing. Most of these buildings have on-site parking lots. Steve Steen of Equinox Press had mentioned a sight-distance problem related to the curve on which his building sits (see diagram)~ however, TJYOI feels that because traffic volume is low and parking turnover is slight, there is no reason to red-curb the cuFce. The 20-minute parking zone is not proposed to be on the curve but, rather, on the north-facing side of the building. Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, waive the reading, and introduce the ordinance establishing a 20-minute parking zone in front of 6908 Sierra Court.
