Delay Installation of Parking Restrictions on North Side of Country Club
Drive in the Area of Manor Care Until Completion of Additional Parking
Construction
SUBMITTED BY: Mark Greenwood, P.E., Director of Public Works
DATE: June 22, 2006
CONTENTS: Exhibit, Vicinity Map
Recommendation:
By minute motion, authorize staff to delay installation of parking restrictions on
the north side of Country Club Drive in the area near Manor Care pending
completion of parking construction, but no later than to the end of August 2006.
Discussion:
At the August 25, 2005 Council meeting, City Council authorized staff to install golf cart/bike
lanes on Country Club Drive between Monterey Avenue and Cook Street, a process which
would include the addition of parking restrictions on the street in that area. At the same time,
staff was working with the management of Manor Care to provide additional on -site parking
spaces to reduce the parking impact on Country Club Drive. Manor Care management
indicated that they were in the process of developing additional parking and they did follow
through by processing the necessary plans for building additional parking spaces.
At the May 25, 2006 Council meeting, Council members inquired as to the status of the planned
parking restrictions on Country Club Drive. Staff performed a field review on May 26 and
observed that the additional parking spaces at Manor Care are currently under construction.
Staff estimates that this work should be complete in August 2006. During construction, parking
is further limited by the contractor's activities; therefore, staff recommends delaying any parking
restrictions on Country Club Drive until the additional parking construction is complete, but in no
case later than the end of August, at which time the golf cart/bike lane project would also
proceed.
