RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Traffic Resolution No. 2022/4518 establishing stop controls on Silver Avenue (Road No. 0565H) at Giaramita Street (Road No. 0565AB), as recommended by the Public Works Director, North Richmond area. (District I)

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

Based on community engagement, which included local school officials, parents, and community center staff, it was determined that the primary path of travel to school and for after-school activities follows a largely north-south pattern along the west side of Giaramita Street. District 1 Supervisor John Gioia therefore recommended installation of stop controls at this intersection to improve safety for pedestrians and students in close proximity to Verde K-8 School.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Silver Avenue will remain uncontrolled at Giaramita Street.
