Title

RESCIND SEASONAL PARKING RESTRICTIONS ON EDISON STREET, 124TH CIRCLE AND 123RD CIRCLE WEST OF NORTH MARINA CIRCLE

 

Background

On August 4, 2016, the City received a petition from residents who live on Edison Street, 123rd Circle and 124th Circle, all west of North Marina Circle.  The petition was signed by 82 of the 109 parcels (75%) and asked the City Council to consider parking restrictions on Edison Street, 123rd Circle and 124th Circle. 

 

At their June 15, 2017 Council meeting, the City Council approved seasonal parking restrictions on all three streets and year round parking restrictions on Edison Street adjacent to the two medians west of North Marina Circle by Resolution No. 17-080.  On June 16, 2017, a letter was sent to each resident informing them of this action and the process to request temporary parking permits for special events from the Blaine PD.

 

The City Council heard from several residents that they did not want to deal with requesting special event permits to allow for temporary parking and requested that all seasonal parking restrictions be reconsidered.  The City Council directed that the signs not be installed until they had a chance to discuss the previously approved parking restrictions.  A second letter was sent to all adjacent residents that the Council will be reconsidering the seasonal parking restrictions at their August 3, 2017 Council meeting.

 

The following resolution was prepared if Council decides to rescind all seasonal parking restrictions on Edison Street, 124th Circle and 123rd Circle.  The year round parking restrictions adjacent to the two medians on Edison Street west of North Marina Circle will still be posted with parking restrictions.

 

Recommendation

By motion, adopt the Resolution.
