RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Traffic Resolution No. 2019/4483 to prohibit stopping, parking, or standing of vehicles at all times on the south side of Olympic Boulevard (Road No. 3441), beginning at a point 36 feet west of the centerline of Panoramic Way (Road No. 3845BE) and extending westerly a distance of 22 feet;

RESCIND Traffic Resolution No. 1243, adopted October 15, 1965, and Traffic Resolution No. 3566, adopted August 17, 1993, as recommended by the Public Works Director, Walnut Creek area.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No Fiscal Impact

BACKGROUND:

Parking restrictions were approved by the Board of Supervisors on October 15, 1965 at this location, based on postal mail delivery, which is no longer deposited at this location. Therefore, the Public Works Department Traffic Section recommends rescinding this resolution, as it is no longer necessary.

Parking restrictions at this location were also approved by the Board of Supervisors in 1993 for use by County Connection as a bus stop. On March 13, 2019, County Connection contacted the Public Works Department indicating that bus service at this location was no longer needed, effective March 10, 2019. Therefore, the Public Works Department Traffic Section also recommends rescinding this resolution, since bus services have been terminated at this site.

However, after review of the site, it was determined that parking restrictions should remain in place to provide improved sight lines for vehicles entering Olympic Boulevard from Panoramic Way.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Parking will remain restricted based on features no longer in place at this location.
