Recommendation:
By minute motion, direct staff to reinstall the double yellow centerline on
Grapevine Street and authorize the City Manager to approve a contract
with a local striping contractor in an amount not to exceed $5,000.
Executive Summary:
In an effort to address concerns of residents on Grapevine Street, a number of
improvements have been made on Grapevine Street including installing "No Through
Truck" signs, installing an all -way stop at Goldenrod Lane, and resurfacing the street
with rubberized asphalt. In an effort to address a request for sidewalk and/or bike lanes,
staff conducted a survey of all the residents on Grapevine Street. As the attached
survey summary shows, a strong majority of residents do not wish to see sidewalk or
bike lane or other improvements installed with the exception of the reinstallation of the
double yellow centerline, which was strongly desired.

Therefore, staff recommends the double yellow centerline be reinstalled as soon

local striping contractor for this work, in an amount not to exceed $5,000. Funds
are available in Striping Account number 110-4315-433-3320.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: Mark Greenwood, P.E., City Engineer
From: Martin Alvarez, Senior Management Analyst
Date: November 12, 2004
Subject: Resident Survey on Grapevine Street
Attached is a spreadsheet outlining the results of the survey we sent to all Grapevine
Street residents. There were sixty-nine residents surveyed and we received a total of
forty-five responses (65 % participation).
As you will see on the attached spreadsheet, the results clearly indicate that the
residents on Grapevine Street do not wish to see a sidewalk or bike/golf cart lane
installed. However, the majority of the residents indicated that they would like the City
to add a double yellow stripe down the center of Grapevine Street.
We also gave residents an opportunity to provide additional comments concerning
issues on Grapevine. A majority of the residents that provided comments requested
additional patrolling on Grapevine for speeding and cut -through truck traffic.
I hope this information will assist you and your staff in addressing this issue. If you have
any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me at Ext. 448.
