DESCRIPTION:
This item was introduced at the April 23, 1990, City Council meeting.
On April 9, 1990, the City Council held a public hearing regarding a proposal
that an existing passenger loading zone on Village Parkway in front of the U.
S. Post Office be removed and that 35 feet of no parking zone be established
adjacent to the center driveway for sight distance clearance.
The U.S. Post Office on Village Parkway has moved its mailboxes inside the
parking lot, thus eliminating the need for the 94-foot white passenger loading
zone along the curb.
Rather than allowing unlimited parking at this location, the City Council
expressed a desire to establish a 20-minute parking zone. The post office
parking lot is generally crowded, and a limited parking zone would prevent
all-day parkers and provide three short-term spaces along the curb for
customers of the post office and other businesses on Village Parkway. Most
transactions at the post office could be concluded within the 20-minute time
frame.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, waive the
reading, and ADOPT the ordinance repealing the passenger loading zone and
establishing a 20-minute parking zone in front of the U.S. Post Office at 6937
Village Parkway.
