Title
Resolution to Prohibit On-Street Parking on the North Side of Pauline Boulevard from South Main Street to South Seventh Street
Memorandum
Attached for your review and approval, please find a resolution to approve the prohibition of on-street parking on the north side of Pauline Boulevard from South Main Street to South Seventh Street.
The City applied for and received Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds to be used in conjunction with utility funds to rehabilitate Pauline Boulevard between Main and Seventh. Construction is scheduled for the spring of 2025. ?
Based on the recommendations in the Ann Arbor Moving Together Toward? Vision Zero Comprehensive Transportation Plan, feedback from the Transportation Commission (Resolution attached), and the results of the public feedback, City staff developed a design that includes bike lanes along Pauline between Main and Seventh. In order to accommodate this, on-street parking will need to be eliminated on the north side of Pauline Boulevard within the project limits. The proposed pavement layout on Pauline Boulevard will allow for a separated bike lane on the north side, 10-foot wide vehicle lanes in each direction, and a striped bike lane and parking lane along the south side.
Chapter 126 of City Code requires Council approval for the permanent or temporary restriction of parking for more than one block. Therefore, a resolution to prohibit on-street parking on the North Side of Pauline Boulevard from South Main Street to South Seventh Street is presented.
Budget/Fiscal Impact: Other than that minor cost of installing the No Parking signs, the removal of parking will have no substantial budgetary impacts.
