Member Johnson introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption:
DESIGNATING GREEN VALLEY ROAD AS A
RESIDENT -ONLY PARKING PERMIT AREA
WHEREAS, the City Council has the power and authority, pursuant to
Chapter 9, Section 9.11, Subd. 2 of the City Code, to designate parking restric-
tions, and it appears that resident parking only zones should be created on cer-
tain portions of Green Valley Road; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has met at the time and place specified in a
notice duly given with respect to the subject matter hereof and has heard all
interested persons; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds the following conditions exist on Green
Valley Road (hereinafter the "area") as a result of the present lack of parking
regulations:
1. The area is detrimentally impacted by parking of non-resident
vehicles during the proposed hours of restriction and that such impact creates
an unreasonable increase in hazardous traffic conditions threatening the safety
of children, pedestrians and pets.
2. The area does not have sufficient parking to accommodate the con-
venient parking of vehicles by residents thereof in the vicinity of their homes.
3. The restriction of on -street parking available to non-residents will
reduce vehicle noise, pollution, congestion, accumulation of litter and other
adverse environmental effects of automobile traffic and will thus encourage
reliance on car pools and mass transit.
4. The health, safety, welfare, and integrity of the residents, the
residential area and the City as a whole, and the attractiveness and livability
of the neighborhood will be better protected by a system of resident -only
parking.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the
Golden Valley that resident parking only shall
sides of Green Valley Road between Kelly Drive
North on the east. Said parking restriction to
9.11 of the City Code.
