RE: Residential Parking Permit District (RPPD) "D" Area Amendment —
Parking Study Results
INTRODUCTION
Becky Bruxvoort has submitted a letter to the Engineering Department requesting an
amendment to the current RPPD "D".
BACKGROUND
On April 24, 2014, a petition was submitted by Becky Bruxvoort of 1673 Alicia Street
regarding an area amendment to the current RPPD "D" that would add the following
streets:
• Alicia Street from Pennsylvania Avenue to Andrea Street, both sides;
• Andrea Street from Donovan Drive to Marjorie Circle, both sides; and
• Marjorie Circle from Amy Court to Welu Drive, both sides
o Marjorie Circle from Pennsylvania Avenue to Amy Court was
amended to District "D" in 12/2012.
This amendment would not change the current time restrictions that are established for
RPPD "D".
DISCUSSION
A parking study was conducted for a petition to amend RPPD "D" on Alicia Street,
Andrea Street, and Marjorie Circle. Engineering has determined the total available
curbside parking in the petition area is 102 parking spaces. A count was conducted on
04/29/2014 from 0928-0941 resulting in 47 cars parked curbside, with 42 of the 47 cars
being non-residents of the area.
According to City Ordinance 9-14-321.722(B):
1. At least eighty percent (80%) of the curbside 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
2. At least twenty five percent (25%) of the curbside parking spaces in the
proposed parking district were utilized by nonresident parkers. For purposes
of this criterion, the latest available motor vehicle registration information shall
be used.
This parking study results in 46.1% of the total curbside spaces being utilized during
peak hours. Of the 47 cars parked during the study, 89.4% were non-residents of the
area. The vast majority of the 47 cars were located on Marjorie Circle between Amy
Court and Andrea Street, and Alicia Street between Pennsylvania Avenue and Andrea
Street. If Ms. Bruxvoort limited her petition to this area, 100% of the curbside spaces
were utilized during the parking study, exceeding the 80% criteria. Ms. Bruxvoort
petitioned a larger area than was necessary in an attempt to prevent the parking
problem from simply migrating to adjacent streets. Of the proposed area to be added,
68.8% of the residents signed the submitted petition.
Since the parking area did not meet the 80% criteria, and since there is no provision in
the ordinance to make an exception, we are recommending that the area be limited to
the portion of the petition meeting the criteria. Therefore, only Alicia Street from
Pennsylvania Avenue to Andrea Street, both sides, and Marjorie Circle from Amy Court
to Andrea Street, both sides, be amended to the RPPD "D".
Staff conveyed to Ms. Bruxvoort that the current construction at Hempstead High
School is anticipated to last through early 2016. When completed, parking capacity on
Hempstead property will increase from approximately 470 stalls to 799 stalls. Ms.
Bruxvoort still wanted to proceed with the petition.
RECOMMENDATION
Engineering recommends Alicia Street and Marjorie Circle amended by the City Council
to existing RPPD "D". I recommend that the City Council set a public hearing to amend
Residential Parking Permit District D by adding Alicia Street from Pennsylvania Avenue
to Andrea Street, both sides, and Marjorie Circle from Amy Court to Andrea Street, both
sides. Engineering also recommends the portion of the petition not meeting the 80%
criteria be excluded from RPPD "D". This includes Marjorie Circle from Andrea Street to
Welu Drive both sides, and Andrea Street from Donovan Drive to Marjorie Circle.
Attached is a map showing the two areas recommended and not recommended for
RPPD "D".
REQUESTED ACTION
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution setting a public hearing
for the proposed amendment of RPPD "D".

Residential Parking Permit District D Area Amendment
Dubuque City Council,
RECEIVED
14 APR 24 AM 8: 43
City Clerk's Office
Dubuque, lA
The residents of Alicia Street, Andrea Street, and Marjorie Circle would like to request
an AREA amendment to existing Residential Parking Permit District D (9-14-321.736)
that would add the following streets:
O Alicia Street from Pennsylvania Avenue to Andrea Street, both sides;
® Andrea Street from Donovan Drive to Marjorie Circle, both sides; and
O Marjorie Circle from Amy Court to Welu Drive, both sides
The existing criteria established in District D (9-14-321.736(B)) is adequate and
approved by residents that have signed the attached petition. That criteria states: No
vehicles shall park curbside in residential parking permit district D during the hours of
seven o'clock (7:00) AM to three o'clock (3:00) PM daily, on school days, without
displaying a valid parking permit issued by the City.
This AREA amendment will only add the before mentioned streets to District D. No
changes will be made within the current District D.
Due to parking congestion created by non-resident vehicles, littering, noise disturbances
and overall safety concerns for both resident and non-resident traffic, we the residents
of Alicia Street, Andrea Street, and Marjorie Circle seek approval by the City Council for
this proposed AREA amendment to existing Residential Parking Permit District D.
Thank you,
Becky Bruxv
