Resolution to Approve Changes to Traffic Patterns and Parking on Certain City Streets for the 2012 University of Michigan Student Move-In Program from August 29 - August 31, 2012
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 29 at 6:00 A.M. through Friday, August 31, 2012 at 10:00 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.
