STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL
DATE: July 17, 2018
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM:
Christopher L. Foss, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Modification of Parking Regulations along Maguire Way
Prepared by: Obaid Khan, Transportation and Operations Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider converting the existing Time -Limited No Parking zone
along Maguire Way to a Tow Away zone. This action will improve garbage truck access
to garbage containers for the Terraces at Dublin Ranch.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Amending the Dublin Traffic Code Approving Parking Regulation
along Maguire Way.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The cost to implement the two-away zone across the garbage containers on Maguire
Way by installing new “No Parking - Tow Away” signs can be accommodated in the
Fiscal Year 2018 - 2019 Street Maintenance Operating Budget.
DESCRIPTION:
Staff received a request from the Terraces at Dublin Ranch Homeowner’s Association
(HOA) to convert the existing Time-Limited No Parking zone along Maguire Way to
Tow-Away zone. See attachment 2 for location map. HOA’s Maintenance Supervisor
informed City staff that residents are not following the parking restrictions and that the
garbage service provider experiences significant access issues during trash pickups.
The existing No Parking zone restricts parking on every Thursday from 6:00 AM to
12:00 PM. and was established to facilitate garbage truck access to garbage containers
across the street. This restriction requires significant enforcement resources and has
not prevented residents from parking at the subject location.
A tow-away authority is requested for this location to allow Dublin Police to address
parking violations expeditiously and ensure safe and easy garba ge vehicle access. This
change will only be effective on the garbage pick-up days and will not add any new no
parking zones.
