Thompson, Public Works Director EXRIBITS ATTACR-ED: 1) Resolution 2) Location Map RECOMMENDATION:/~¥VCdopt resolution FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Approximately $50 to paint red curb. This cost will be paid from the Street Maintenance Operating Budget. DESCRIPTION: Recent improvements on Golden Gate Drive at Dublin Boulevard include provision ora fight mm lane, northbound to eastbound, in order to improve the Level of Service at the intersection. The extra lane will shorten up the queue of cars waiting at the northbound leg of this intersection which will, in mm, reduce the amount of green signal time necessary for the side street. There are now a number of motorists using the northbound leg of the intersection; this traffic comes from the Crown Chevrolet operation, the SmithKline Beecham laboratory, auto repak shops, and other businesses. Even more traffic will ensue once the hook ramps and the "parallel road" are constructed. This right mm lane precludes on-street parking on the east side of Golden Gate Drive for a distance of 100' south of Dublin Boulevard, as the street width is insufficient to allow both the fight mm IEe and a parking lane. In addition, the Vehicle Code does not permit parking in a travel lane. The 100' No Parking Zone would eliminate about five on-street parking spaces; however, the remainder of Golden Gate Drive is still available for parking. Crown Chevrolet, which occupies the southeast corner of the Dublin Boulevard / Golden Gate Drive intersection, has been notified of the proposed No Parking Zone. Staffrecommends that the City Council adopt the resolution prohibiting parking on the east side of Golden Gate Drive for a distance of 100' south of Dublin Boulevard. g:\agenmisc~nopkg COPIES TO: Crown Chevrolet ITEM NO. ~o 5 RESOLUTION NO. - 96 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN PROHIBITING PARKING ON THE EAST SIDE OF GOLDEN GATE DRIVE SOUTH OF DUBLIN BOULEVARD The City Council of the City of Dublin hereby resolves as follows: Section 1: Pursuant to City of Dublin Municipal Code Sections 6.'04.250 and 6.04.290A, and in the interest of public safety, the following No Parhng Zone shall be established: Golden Gate Drive: On the easterly curbline, fi'om the southerly curbline of Dublin Boulevard, southerly a distance of l OO feet.
