FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The Public Works Transportation Engineering Division was contacted by residents of the Rivershore Apartment Complex requesting the removal of restricted parking along portions of Weldon Street in Bay Point. Traffic Engineering staff responded by researching the prohibited parking history and contacting Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Parking Enforcement Division. CSO Dan Jordan of the Sheriff's Office indicated no objection to permitting additional public parking along portions of Weldon Street. With little history of collisions and the Sheriffs Office concurrence, we therefore recommend removal of portions of the restricted parking on Weldon Street.

However, staff recommends the reestablishment of prohibited parking on portions of both sides of Weldon Street to allow increased sight lines for vehicles exiting driveways and for road users through the curved sections of roadway. Additionally, the removal of restricted parking elsewhere on the road will allow for the additional public parking requested.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Parking will remain restricted at this location.
