1 . SUBJECT
Request to add both sides of the 500 Block of East Maple Avenue to the Downtown Permit
Parking Area (Area "A".)
2. SUMMARY
The request is to add the 500 Block of East Maple Avenue to the Area "A" Neighborhood
Permit Parking Area.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the request.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for the project is $1000 and will be funded in Minor Traffic Control
Devices (16302) through Traffic Improvement Measure M2 (263).
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
b. Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
A resident living on the 500 block of East Maple Avenue is requesting that it be added to
the Downtown Neighborhood Parking Permit Area (Area "A"). The 500 block is located
between Shaffer and Cleveland streets.
Per the City's Parking Permit Ordinance, the Residential Permit Parking Program was
developed to mitigate the intrusion of non-residential, e.g. university, commercial, and
industrial, parking demands on residential streets. In doing so, the program assures that
local residents and their guests have access to convenient on-street parking in proximity
to their homes.
ITEM 1 1 02/12/2020
For a street to be considered, a resident of the affected neighborhood must provide the
Traffic Engineering Division with a letter of request. Certain city streets, such as this, that
are in the Permit Area `A' are exempt from paying application fees since said fees were
waived at the July 24, 2001, City Council Meeting.
The original Parking Permit Area `A' was established in February 1987. The Orange City
Council approved the implementation of a permit parking program in the neighborhood
adjacent to Chapman University, to prevent student parking from encroaching into the
residential neighborhood. With the adoption of Parking Permit Area `A', it was the intent
that each eligible street within the permit area could request activation of permit parking
on a case-by-case basis.
Parking Study
Because the 500 block of East Maple Avenue lies within in Permit Area "A", it needs not
satisfy any minimum parking occupancy thresholds other prospective permit parking
areas are subjected to. Therefore, a petition was circulated without a parking occupancy
analysis being conducted.
Staff provided a petition form to the applicant, with instructions to make a good faith effort
to contact all the addresses identified thereon. The results of the petition are shown in
the table below:
In Favor Opposed Unsigned
Total 7 0 0
Percentage 100% 0% 0
Analvsis
In order for staff to recommend permit parking be implemented, no less than a 55%
majority of the affected residents must support the proposal. As discussed above, 100%
of the residents on the affected block are in favor of the parking permit program.
Therefore, the petition meets the minimum requirements.
If approved, parking permits will be issued to residents only. Participation in the permit
program is voluntary; however, after implementation, any vehicle parked on the street
without a permit can be cited by the Orange Police Department.
Recommendation
Staff respectfully recommends that the Traffic Commission approve the request for permit
parking on the 500 Block of East Maple Avenue and forward to the City Council for final
approval.
The proponent and all residents and businesses within 300 feet of the study area were
notified of the Traffic Commission Meeting.
