Webb, Public Works Director — 949-644-3311 dawebb@newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Antony Brine, City Traffic Engineer tbrine(o-)_newportbeachca.gov PHONE: 949-644-3329 TITLE: Parking Restriction Revision — Vista del Oro and Mar Vista Drive in Corona del Mar High School Area ABSTRACT: On August 9, 2016 the City Council approved parking restrictions to prohibit parking on residential sides of Vista del Oro and Mar Vista Drive in the area surrounding Corona del High School to reduce student parking impacts on the surrounding neighborhood streets. Since the implementation of these No Parking areas, Residents from the Bluffs and Plaza communities have requested the City revise the parking restrictions to allow residents to park in the zone overnight to reduce the parking impact to their adjacent neighborhoods. RECOMMENDATION: a) Determine that the action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15311 (Accessory Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines because it will have no potential to have a significant effect on the environment; b) Rescind Resolution No. 2016-99, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Newport Beach, California establishing a "No Parking" area on the north side of Vista del Oro between Eastbluff Drive and Mar Vista Drive, and on the west side of Mar Vista Drive between Domingo Drive and Vista del Oro; and c) Adopt Resolution No. 2016-110, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Newport Beach Prohibiting Parking of Vehicles on the north side of Vista del Oro between Eastbluff Drive and Mar Vista Drive, and on the west side of Mar Vista Drive between Domingo Drive and Vista del Oro between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays of each week. 6-1 Parking Restriction Revision — Vista del Oro and Mar Vista Drive in Corona del Mar High School Area September 13, 2016 Page 2 FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: Staff anticipates there will be minimal costs associated with the installation of traffic signage and necessary enforcement. DISCUSSION: On August 9, 2016 the City Council approved parking restrictions to prohibit parking along portions of Vista del Oro and Mar Vista Drive in the area surrounding Corona del High School in an effort to reduce student parking impacts on the surrounding neighborhood streets. Upon approval, city staff installed No Parking Anytime signs on the north side of Vista del Oro between Eastbluff Drive and Mar Vista Drive, and on the west side of Mar Vista Drive between Domingo Drive and Vista del Oro on August 29th. The Police Department has begun issuing warnings to vehicles that parking is no longer allowed within this zone. To better inform the residents of the pending action as well as solicit comments, Public Works staff also met with both the Bluffs and Plaza Home Owners Associations to discuss the new parking restrictions. During these meetings, several residents noted the loss of parking along Vista del Oro and Mar Vista would adversely affect their neighborhoods. This concern has been reiterated by additional residents that have just contacted staff within the last two weeks. Many residents around the High School are requesting a revision of the parking restrictions to allow for overnight and weekend parking within the zone. To address the association and resident concerns, staff recommends the parking restrictions on north side of Vista del Oro between Eastbluff Drive and Mar Vista Drive, and on the west side of Mar Vista Drive between Domingo Drive and Vista del Oro (residential sides of the streets) be revised from a permanent parking prohibition to weekdays between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Additionally, staff recommends excluding Thursdays from the above -listed parking restriction to accommodate parking during the street sweeping operation along the south side of Vista del Oro between Eastbluff Drive and Mar Vista Drive, and on the east side of Mar Vista Drive between Domingo Drive and Vista del Oro (school side of the streets). Municipal Code Section 12.44.010 Parking Time Restrictions, allows for parking restrictions related to specific hours and days of the week to be implemented through a City Council Resolution. 6-2 Parking Restriction Revision — Vista del Oro and Mar Vista Drive in Corona del Mar High School Area September 13, 2016 Page 3 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15311 (Accessory Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, as the only physical change to the environment will be the installation of new small regulatory signs within the existing developed public right- of-way to alert motorists of parking restrictions and no other changes to the streets, sidewalks or parking spaces is authorized. NOTICING: The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the meeting at which the City Council considers the item).
