Policy

The Public Works Department installs No Parking Anytime signs on public roadways adjacent to playgrounds or recreational areas.

Rationale

The City has many playgrounds and recreational areas. No parking adjacent to these areas improves a motorists sight distance. Experience has shown that this then adds to the safety of children playing in the area.

Procedure

The Public Works Department will take requests to install No Parking zones near playgrounds. The Public Works Director will investigate the request. The Recreation Director will be notified of the proposal. Conditions such as the impact of a parking ban on available parking for facility events will be considered.
