Van Milligen, City Manager Gus Psihoyos, City Engineer 4C:; c J'l Dell Street - Request for Parking Removal TO: SUBJECT: INTRODUCTION The Police Department has made a request to the Engineering Department to investigate the need to remove parking on a portion of Dell Street. (See attachment.) DISCUSSION Dell Street is 30 feet wide from Arlington Street to a point 100 feet to the north as referred to in Officer Flannery's memo. This width does not allow for angle parking on the west side of the street and parallel parking on the east side while still providing for the free movement of traffic. There is a retaining wall located midway between Arlington Street and Loras Boulevard that reduces the street width to 13 feet. Parking is currently prohibited on both sides of the street adjacent to the wall. RECOMMENDATION Based on the officer's and Engineering Department's review, I recommend the City Council approve the removal of parking on the east side of Dell Street across from the angle parking as well as the already-restricted portion adjacent to the wall. One parking stall will remain on the east side of Dell Street just south of Loras Boulevard adjacent to the laundromat. ACTION TO BE TAKEN The City Council is requested to adopt the attached ordinance providing for the removal of parking on the east side of Dell Street from Arlington Street to a point 50 feet south of Loras Boulevard.
