A petition was received to establish a Residential Parking Permit District (RPPD) on
Phyllrich Drive between Keystone Drive and Keymont Drive.
The City's parking study of this area indicates that during the requested time period, at
least 80% of the curbside spaces were utilized, and at least 25% of such curbside
parking spaces were utilized by non-resident parkers. The petition, therefore, meets the
requirements of the RPPD ordinance.
City Engineer Gus Psihoyos recommends City Council approval of the establishment of
a Residential Parking Permit District on Phyllrich Drive between Keystone Drive and
Keymont Drive between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. daily, except Saturdays,

the ordinance. The petition requests that the parking restriction be effective
between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. daily, except Saturdays, Sundays and

The City's parking study of this area indicates that during the requested time
period, at least 80 percent (80%) of the curbside spaces were utilized, and at
least 25 percent (25%) of such curbside parking spaces were utilized by non-
resident parkers. The petition, therefore, meets the requirements of the RPPD
ordinance.
At its August 7, 2006 meeting, the City Council adopted an ordinance designating
as Residential Parking Permit District H, Vizaleea Drive and Keymont Drive from
Keyway Drive to its westerly terminus. At its December 4, 2006 meeting, the City
Council adopted an ordinance designating as Residential Parking Permit District
H, Hansel Drive between Keystone Drive and Keymont Drive. The time and days
requested by the petitioners on Phyllrich Drive correspond to those in District H.
Therefore, Phyllrich Drive should be added to District H.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
It is recommended that Phyllrich Drive between Keystone Drive and Keymont
Drive between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. daily, except Saturdays, Sundays
and holidays be approved and designated as a Residential Parking Permit
District (RPPD).
At the March 5, 2007 public hearing, the City Council may reject the petition,
adopt an ordinance designating the proposed area as a Residential Parking
Permit, or adopt an ordinance modifying the proposed district. The City Council
may also adopt alternate hours other than the 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. parking restriction
daily except Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
