OLD BUSINESS The Deputy City Clerk presented from the meeting of August 16,
"Resident Only" 2004, resolution designating "resident only" permit parking on
Permit Columbia Drive, Wake Forest Road, Amherst Place, Tulane Place,
Parking Dartmouth Place, Rutgers Drive, and Fordham Drive:
Defer request for "resident only" parking and direct staff to
implement Phase 1, of the recommended phased plan, in each
of the Areas (as designated in staff report).
Direct Staff to include funding in the proposed Fiscal Year
2005-2006 budget for Phase 3 in Area 1 and Phase 2 in Area 2,
if needed.
Direct staff to re-evaluate and report back to the City Council
the need for "resident only" parking on Cornell Drive if parking
strategies within different phases prove successful.
The Transportation Services Manager reviewed the Agenda Report
dated November 1, 2004, and responded to questions from
Council.
Michelle Morey, Costa Mesa, supported implementation of Area
1/Phases 1, 2, and 3, and opposed Phase 4. She objected to time
limits for parking on Fordham Drive. The Transportation Services
Manager clarified that the parking restriction between 10:00 a.m.
and 4:00 p.m, was intended for the south side of Wilson Street, not
Fordham Drive, and would be implemented as part of Phase 1.
Dianne Dollriehs, Costa Mesa, opposed "resident only" parking
restrictions, supported the staff recommendations, and urged
Council to proceed. with Phases 1, 2 and 3. She asked that
enforcement be factored in as part of the program.
Jeff Anderson, Costa Mesa, speaking on behalf of himself and his
neighbor; supported "resident only" parking, as did Costa Mesa
residents Don Marshall and Ron Lane.
John Dollriehs, Costa Mesa, objected to private control of public
space, and observed that allowing certain residents to park on a
public street while excluding others would be unfair since everyone
shares the cost and all should share the benefit. He supported
Phases 1, 2, and 3, and suggested keeping the park option open.
Pat Lake, Costa Mesa, took exception to restricting the length of
time allowed to park on Wilson Street.
Barbara Goddard, Costa Mesa, President of the Costa Mesa
Heritage Homeowners Association, stated that parking on side
streets is important to residents in the eight -home Costa Mesa
Heritage tract due to the lack of sufficient parking on their cul-de-
sac. She voiced concern about "resident only" permit parking and
parking on Wilson Street.
The following Costa Mesa residents opposed parking on Wilson
Street: Andy McMillan, who also opposed "resident only" permit
parking; Dennis Gonzales; Royellen Duffield, who supported permit
parking; and an unidentified Costa Mesa resident.
Loretta Fitzhugh, Costa Mesa, opposed "resident only" permit
parking which would severely impact the mobile home park in
which she resides.
Linda Bolton, Costa Mesa, encouraged constructing a parking lot
at Wilson Park, and approved of Area 2/Phase 1, modification of
traffic striping on Vanguard Way.
Danny Deneff, Costa Mesa, supported "resident only" permit
parking on Wake Forest Road, and addressed the safety issue in
terms of a crosswalk in front of his home.
Costa Mesa residents Kyle Landis and Heine Austin supported
Area 1/Phases 1 and 2. Mr. Heine asked that permit parking be
rejected and that the "resident only" parking on Cornell Drive be
removed. Kathy Cardos, Costa Mesa, thanked Council for the
permit parking on Cornell Drive.
The Transportation Services Manager responded to a question
from Council Member Cowan by stating that the existing permit
parking on Purdue Drive, Littleton Place, and Loyola Road was
.designed to protect the residential. parking from events parking at
the.Orange County Fairgrounds. The Police Sergeant added that
the parking is monitored during events.
MOTION/To Approve A motion was made by Mayor Monahan to approve the "resident
Died only" permit parking request, to approve and implement Phases 1
and 2 in Area 1, approve and implement Phase 1 in Area 2,
approve funds for Phase 3 in Area 1, if needed, for the 2005-2006
budget, direct staff to re-evaluate the situation and report to
Council in six months, the report to include any enforcement
personnel needs of the Police Department, and request staff to
explore the bus routes on Wilson Street for relocation and/or bus
turnouts. The motion died for lack of a second.
Mayor Pro Tem Mansoor advised caution regarding parking on
Wilson Street, and suggested that staff should investigate other
options. He voiced traffic collision concerns regarding Wilson
Street but was open to considering cul-de-sac barriers on Fairview
Road. He thought that closing the rest rooms at Wilson Park would
limit it to neighborhood use and alleviate the transient problem,
and suggested permit parking during the evening hours. Mayor
Monahan had the same concerns about traffic on Wilson Street,
and endorsed a pilot program which includes moving the buses or
creating turnouts. He felt that this would provide much-needed
parking on the south side of Wilson Street, and supported approval
of the "resident only" permit parking. He observed that if the
"resident only" permit parking is - instituted and parking is ` not
allowed on Wilson Street, the residents- on that street will have
nowhere to park.
MOTION/Motion to A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Mansoor to implement
Approve Died "resident only" permit parking between 1.1:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.;
directing staff to review options during the 2005-2006 fiscal year
budget in relation to adding fencing to the cul-de-sacs and
permanently securing the Wilson Park rest rooms. The motion died
for lack of a second.
MOTION/To Approve A motion was made by Council Member Cowan, seconded by
Council Member Scheafer, to implement Phases 1 and 2 in Area 1;
to implement Phase 1 in Area 2; to institute a 6 month "resident
only" parking permit for Area 2; and to return for future
consideration the placement of signs on all streets in Areas 1 and
2 for street sweeping purposes; and staff to return in six months
with an update.
Council Member Scheafer opposed closing the Wilson Park rest
rooms because of the inconvenience to families with children. He
did not believe that the open rest room encouraged vagrants to
use the park.
