Title

AUTHORIZE INSTALLATION OF REGULATORY SIGNS FOR PARKING RESTRICTIONS ON BOTH SIDES OF DUNKIRK STREET AND 122ND COURT EAST OF LAKES PARKWAY

 

Background

On July 27, 2015, the City received a petition from residents who live on Dunkirk Street and 122nd Court east of Lakes Parkway.  The petition was signed by 25 of the 42 parcels (60%) and asked the City Council to consider parking restrictions on both sides of Dunkirk Street and 122nd Court from June 1st thru Labor Day between 10 AM and 8 PM.  The petition states that residents are concerned with the number of vehicles parked on the street to access the beach and the safety of pedestrians walking on the street around the parked vehicles. 

 

Installation of parking restriction signs requires authorization by City Council.  The regulatory signs proposed meet warrants established in the Minnesota Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 

 

Recommendation

By motion, adopt the Resolution.

                     NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Blaine that regulatory signs are hereby authorized to be installed as follows:

 

Ø                     No parking restrictions on both sides of Dunkirk Street and 122nd Court east of Lakes Parkway from June 1st thru Labor Day between 10 AM and 8 PM.
