ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:
Samuel Street is a narrow local street in the Old Town area. Recent single-family residential and townhome developments at the eastern end of the street have led to an increase in vehicle parking along the south side of Samuel Street. Due to the narrow width of the roadway and tight corner radii, large municipal service vehicles are unable to safely navigate the area when cars are parking along the south curb. As a result, service vehicles have had to enter onto private property, causing damage to residential landscaping and driveways. Staff recommends approving the “No Parking” restrictions on the south side of Samuel Street, extending from 120 feet west of the centerline of Lanyard Drive to 180 feet east of the centerline of Lanyard Drive.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the ordinance as set forth in the caption above.
