RECOMMENDATION Open public hearing; Receive public testimony ; Close

DESCRIPTION The Traffic Engineer has reviewed the need for no
parking restrictions on Dougherty Road , north of Sierra Lane . The need for
restrictions was evaluated as a result of a complaint relating to sight
distance for northbound Dougherty Road vehicles turning from Sierra Lane .
The proposal would eliminate parking on the west side of Dougherty Road
north of Sierra Lane to improve the sight distance and thereby improve the
safety at that intersection. This proposed prohibition of parking extends
for a length of 668 feet from the intersection and will remove approximately
28 parking spaces . The proposed red curb would front 6000 Dougherty Road
( Amador Valley Lanes ) and 6100 Dougherty Road (Dublin Mini Storage ) . The
General Manager of Amador Lanes and the Manager of Dublin Mini Storage both
favor this proposal and indicated that their businesses do not need on-
street parking.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a formal public hearing,
deliberate , waive the reading and adopt the ordinance on an urgency basis .

MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 25, 1985
TO: Lee Thompson, City Engineer
City of Dublin
FROM: Chris D. Kinzel
TJKM
SUBJECT: Red Curbing on Dougherty Road
North of Sierra Lane
As requested, we have reviewed the feasibility of installing red curbing on
the west side of Dougherty Road north of Sierra Lane in front of Amador
Valley Lanes and Dublin Mini Storage. We have examined the conditions in
the field and interviewed the managers of the two businesses.
Meta Allen, General Manager of Amador Valley Lanes, is very much in favor
of parking restrictions on Dougherty Road in front of their parking lot.
She mentioned that semi-trucks parked on the street have occasionally
blocked drivers' sight and created safety hazards for vehicles leaving
their site. Ken Schroeder, Manager of Dublin Mini Storage, is also in
favor of the red curbing idea. Both of them indicated that no on-street
parking is needed to serve their sites.
It is also noted that the red-curb restriction would increase the width of
the pavement usable for travel lanes on Dougherty Road, which could have
six lanes in the future. In summary, we recommend that red curbing be
installed on the west side of Dougherty Road north of Sierra Lane for a
length of 620 feet.
