The County has indicated a willingness to delinate the parking spots to get the parking vehicles to "crowd** the curb leaving space between the periling vehicles and the "fog lines" (white stripes on the side). Alternative li. * This vouli entail the of ?eleered par.ving al'ocs ;appto:the parking are to either replace it with a packing area on the north or to delete the 6 spaces as a consideration. Additional considerations that should be looked at regarding the issues are as follows: 1. Speed Liait - Change in the speed zone as noted before the speeds on either sides of this area are at 30 NPH west and 40 MPH east and this is a 35 HPH zene. Once the construction with Metro Waste Control is dene# we would rsquest a speed study to see if this could be lowered. The risk in this however ie they mey raise it further ss it is bsssd on the average traveled speed drivers go. Theoretically it could raise the limit rather than lower it. 2. Access Dock - In order to addresa the trespass probiem rlTe dity could on its winter access install s dock to allow those people who are parking on County Sosd 51 to use e dock rather than trsspass on the residents. In addi*:ion to placing the dock there it may be appropriate to notify people of the location. Mr. Singer has raised the question as to whether prior to 1983 parking was prohibited on County Road 51. In researching the records it is our understanding that it had not been restricted prior to that. j )n.5: following 1:e a 3 / i : * : : a 3 : 1 a * j 3 , ; ; ; ii :‘ : < 5: TO t rho 3 ? a : a i: - ?af15tria a :r ' a 3. a - : ? i . :r la.ae* - ■ : *. :•. a . i i :: i3 pedajcrial zraczlc fram: le tiorin is limitsd it wouli generally be ignored by boch pedistriana and drivers, - 7la3h_i_na ” '*?h:Le i i i *: i a 1 1 y effaceive chase loose their effeccivaness :o mo sc drivers in the area and begin to blend into the backgi lund. • ££££i.!12. ^ request was made regarding extendFiTg "these based on site distances when they are parking.
