COUNCIL ACTION FORM
Item #
Date: January 5th, 1988
SUBJECT: Parking on Burnett Avenue between 6th Street and 7th Street.
BACKGROUND:
During the discussions on various plans for the downtown parking system
some metering was contemplated north of 6th Street on Burnett Avenue and
thus carry night time parking restrictions for cleaning. The meters were
never authorized north of 6th Street and therefore the night restrictions
are not needed. These restrictions (No Parking 2 AM to 6 AM) are forc-
ing night time employees (particularly post office employees) to park
further north in the residential area.
The attached ordinance would return the parking provisions to the original
alternate side parking that now exists on Burnett Avenue north of 7th
Street. Similar restrictions exist on night parking in the downtown area
and these are being studied before further changes are recommended.
ALTERNATIVES.
1. Adopt an ordinance providing for alternate side parking north of 6th
Street on Burnett Avenue.
2. Do not change the ordinance leaving the present prohibited parking
from 2 AM to 6 AM on Burnett Avenue between 6th Street and 7th
Street.
3. Instruct the staff to investigate other alternatives.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended by the City Manager that the City Council adopt alter-
native number 1 above, thereby adopting an ordinance providing for
alternate side parking north of 6th Street on Burnett Avenue.
