FIN~~CIAL STATEMENT:
Cost of the passenger loading zone only (white curb
and signing) is approximately $300. Sufficient funds
are budgeted in the Street Maintenance Operating
Budget to cover this cost.
DESCRIPTION:
At the December 10, 1990, meeting, the City Council
held a public hearing regarding proposed improvements along Amarillo Road in
front of Nielsen School. A resolution was adopted establishing short no-
parking zones adjacent to the school driveways for visibility, and
establishing an on-street handicapped parking space in front of the school.
The City Council also introduced an ordinance which would establish a
passenger loading zone along the frontage of the school.
At the January 14, 1991, meeting, it was brought to Staff's attention that
Nielsen School plans to begin a daycare program in the near future, and that
parents dropping off children at the daycare center would be required to
escort the children to the door of the facility. Staff contacted Diane
Griffiths, Principal, who felt that the majority of parents using the daycare
center would drop off children between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. and pick them up
between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m., and that the parents would be able to use the
parking Jot at those times of day. However, Ms. Griffiths also stated that
the passenger loading zones would only be needed during peak periods, and that
after-school sports groups would benefit from being allowed to park along the
curb. Ms. Griffiths suggested that the time specified on the passenger
loading zone signing be 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on school days only.
In order to avoid confusion and enforcement problems, Staff recommended that
both the new and existing passenger loading zones reflect the same times.
Therefore, the draft ordinance was revised to indicate the 8:00 a.m. to 3:30
p.m. time for both locations. The proposed ordinance was re-introduced at the
January 28th meeting.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, deliberate,
waive the reading, and ADOPT the ordinance establishing passenger loading
zones on Amarillo Road.
