Members of City Council,
I would like to request that the current two hour parking that is in effect in front of 1961 and 1975 N.Grandview be
eliminated and that the previous two addresses be included in the current Residential Parking Permit District C. Even
though there is a two hour limit on parking ,students from Senior High routinely park in this area for the entire school
day. They have little respect for our properties, throw garbage and cigarettes in our yards and ruin our lawns.
Occasionally they will receive a ticket for violating the two hour parking and they will refrain from parking there for a
few days but then they or other students return to the same area to park. As a property owner I also would like a
place to park, it is virtually impossible to park in front of my own house and make sure my car is moved every two
hours to avoid a ticket. The two properties listed above are located directly across from the "island" near the
intersection of Rose dale and Avoca St. The properties located east of the above two properties have no parking
restrictions.
Sinc",ely, If ---.-.ll

Supp. No. 18
~ 32-383
Sec. 32.383. Residential parking permit pro.
gram established.
There is hereby established a residential
parking permit program. The procedure for being
designated a residential parking permit district
shall be as follows:
(1) Petition: In order to be considered for a res-
idential parking permit district designa-
tion, a group of residents must submit a
petition to the city manager containing the
signature of an adult member of at least
sixty (60) percent of the dwelling units in
the residential area. Petitions shall only be
considered for areas which contain at least
four (4) adjacent block faces or fifty (50) curb
parking spaces. The boundaries of and the
streets within the proposed permit parking
district shall be clearly identified on each
page of the petition. The petition shall also
state clearly that, if the district is approved
that participation in the program is man-
datory, only those vehicles with a permit
shall be permitted to park in the residen-
tial parking permit district between 7:00
a.m. and 5:30 p.m. daily, or such other hours
as may be requested by the petition and
approved by the city council, except Sun-
days and holidays, and an annual fee of ten
dollars ($10.00) will be charged for a
parking permit for each vehicle. The nec-
essary petition can be obtained from the
office of the city clerk. A cover letter ex-
plaining the reasons for the request and a
map showing the boundaries of the pro-
posed parking permit district shall accom-
pany the petition.
(1.5) Exception: A petition may be considered for
an area which contains less than four (4)
adjacent block faces or fifty (50) curb
parking spaces if there are extenuating con-
ditions that render such requirement un-
reasonable. Upon the recommendation of
the city manger, such requiremelll. may be
waived by the city council if it rinds that
the proposed residential district i:; isolated
or separated from other residential areas
by topographical features or by COlllmercial
area. The city council shall not grant such
a waiver, however, ifit determines that the
2061
.-

DUBUQUE CODE
only basis for granting such a waiver is the
convenience of the residents or if it deter-
mines that the waiver is being requested
by the petitioners to prevent opposition to
establishing a district. All other require-
ments of this division must be established.
(2) Parking study: Upon receipt of a valid pe-
tition, the city manager shall cause a
parking study of the area identified in the
petition to be conducted. A residential
parking permit district may be established
only if the results of the study demonstrate
that both of the following criterion are sat-
isfied during peak periods:
a. At least eighty (80) percent of the curb-
side parking spaces in the proposed
parking permit district were utilized
during peak periods. For purposes of
this criterion, a legal curbside parking
space shall be twenty-three (23) linear
feet; and
b. At least twenty-five (25) percent of the
curbside parking spaces in the proposed
parking district were utilized by non-
resident parkers. For purposes of this
criterion, the latest available motor ve-
hicle registration information shall be
used.
(3) Par/ling study report and recommendation:
Upon completion of the parking study, if
the conditions of (2)(a) and (2)(b) are estab.
lished, the city manager shall make are.
port and recommendation to the city
council, based upon the petition and results
of the survey, on whether or not to desig-
nate the proposed parking district or a por-
tion thereof as a residential parking permit
district and the hours such restrictions are
to be in effect. The recommendation shall
take the following into account:
a. The effect on the safety of the residents
of the proposed residential parking
permit district from intensive parking
by nonresidents;
b. The difficulty or inability of residents
of the proposed residential parking
permit district to obtain adequate curb-
side parking adjacent to or near their
Supp. No. 18
residences because of widespread use
of available curbside parking spaces by
nonresident motorists;
c. The likelihood of alleviating, by use of
the residential parking permit pro-
gram, any problem of non availability
of residential parking spaces; and
d. The desire of the residents in the pro-
posed residential parking permit area
for the institution of a residential
parking permit district and the will-
ingness of those residents to bear the
cost incidental to the administration of
the residential parking permit pro-
gram.
(4) Public hearing: Upon receipt of the report
and recommendation from the city man-
ager, the city council shall set a public
hearing on the petition. Upon completion
of the public hearing, the city council may
reject the petition or adopt an ordinance
designating the permit area as a residen-
tial parking permit district and the hours
such parking restrictions are to be in effect.
