The purpose of this bus only loading zone would be to provide a place for
two buses to load and unload students. At the present time the buses
attempt to park at the curb in the school's loop driveway, however, it is
frequently not possible due to parents picking up or dropping off children.
Currently, the curb fronting the school is signed as a loading zone from
8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on school days only. The proposed ordinance would
revise the existing ordinance and set aside 100 feet of curb signed as a bus
loading zone from 8'00 a.m. to 5'00 p.m. on sc~}-g-5~!~'-. ~--~ --~--
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, waive the
