<br />~ <br /> <br />,. <br /> <br />Case #1 <br /> <br />EVALUATE PARKING AT <br />CENTRAL'S PARK CENTER ACCESS ROAD <br />By: Mark Boos, ParkslUtilities Supervisor <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />As you may lmow, most ofthe northerly improvements to Central Park occurred in 1989 - 1990. <br />These were the Park Center Building, two softball fields, soccerfield, and the access road to the <br />building. Shortly after the fields were in use, park visitors began parking on both sides of the <br />access drive to save steps instead of parking in the designated lots. To maintain adequate vehicle <br />movement on the drive, it was posted no parking on one side. This remedied the travel width <br />issue, but left a concern that persons traveling too fast in this stretch could hit someone stepping <br />out between two cars. <br /> <br />Observation: <br /> <br />Elimination of parking on the south and east side of the access drive will reduce the number of <br />spaces by approximately 30. It is important to note that the potential for vehicles striking <br />someone is also present in the parking areas when autos are traveling to fast - although the travel <br />lanes are wider there. <br /> <br />Staff is in agreement that both sides of the Park Center access drive should be posted as no <br />parking. <br /> <br />Commission Action: <br /> <br />Based upon discussion. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />Police Chief <br />Fire Chief <br />ParkslUtilities Supervisor <br /> <br />P&R: 6/12/97 <br /> <br />@kathy/mwordlpark&reclp&Jjunelprcentrl.doc <br /> <br />/ <br />
