Title
Resolution to Prohibit On-Street Parking on the South Side of Brockman Boulevard from Brock Court to Ferdon Road
Memorandum
Attached for your review and approval, please find a resolution to approve the prohibition of on-street parking on the South Side of Brockman Boulevard from Brock Court to Ferdon Road.
The Brockman & Crestland Sidewalk Project proposes filling the gaps in the sidewalk system on Brockman Boulevard from Packard to Ferdon in 2026. Following several public engagement meetings, staff developed a design that narrows Brockman from 31 feet to 22 feet in width in order to create some additional space for the new sidewalk. The proposed design will reduce the proximity of the proposed sidewalk to adjacent residences and will also have the extra effect of slowing traffic by narrowing the roadway.
In order to accommodate this, on-street parking will need to be eliminated on the south side of Brockman Boulevard. The proposed pavement layout on Brockman Boulevard will provide enough width for two way/yield traffic while allowing parking on the north side only.
Chapter 126 of City Code requires City Council approval for the permanent restriction of parking for more than one block.
Budget/Fiscal Impact: Other than the minor cost of installing the No Parking signs, the removal of parking will have no substantial budgetary impacts.
