COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: PARKING REGULATIONS ON STANGE ROAD AND OXFORD AVENUE
BACKGROUND:
In response to the filing of the final plat for the Somerset Subdivision 20th Addition, parking
regulations are required. The City is currently building narrower local streets in an effort to
calm traffic. This requires "no parking" regulations on one side of the street to provide
emergency services enough room to set up their equipment.
The westerly side of Oxford Avenue provides hydrant access to emergency services.
Therefore, Staff feels "no parking" regulations should be placed on the westerly and northerly
side of Oxford Avenue, over its extent.
In addition, with the development on the west side of Stange Road, Staff feels parking
regulations should match the regulations on the east side of Stange Road. To match the
existing regulations, the "no parking" restrictions would be in effect from 3:00 a.m. to 6:00
a.m. everyday along the west side of Stange Road from Northridge Parkway to Aspen Road.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Direct the City Attorney to change the existing ordinance to create "no parking"
restrictions on the westerly side of Oxford Avenue. In addition, develop an ordinance
to restrict parking on the west side of Stange Road between 3:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.
from Northridge Parkway to Aspen Road.
2. Reject this ordinance.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1,
thereby directing the City Attorney to change the existing ordinance to create "no parking"
restrictions on the westerly side of Oxford Avenue. In addition, develop an ordinance to
restrict parking on the west side of Stange Road between 3:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. from
Northridge Parkway to Aspen Road.
