Title
Resolution to Approve Changes to Traffic Patterns and Parking on Certain City Streets for the 2014 University of Michigan Student Move-In Program from August 27 - August 29, 2014
Memorandum
The attached resolution is to approve a request from the University of Michigan to change traffic patterns and parking on certain City streets from Wednesday, August 27 at 6:00 A.M. through Friday, August 29, 2014 at 11:00 P.M. to assist the University Student Move-In Program to proceed in an efficient and orderly manner. In an effort to minimize the anticipated congestion in the City caused by the returning student population, the University has requested the changes at the indicated dates and times to allow University housed students to move into their respective residence halls.
A restriction on peddling licenses and sidewalk occupancy permits within a one-block radius of the housing units is also included in the resolution.
The University of Michigan agrees to pay the City of Ann Arbor $10,450.00 for occupancy of the public right-of-way during the move-in period, and the costs for any other City services specifically related to the student move-in program. The University will maintain the required emergency traffic lanes and will staff barricades to insure the safety and security of individuals moving into university owned housing.
