Hansen, P.E., P,~,bJl9_Woj:l<s Qi~r~ Katie Larson, Police Chief~'/? Ordinance No. 627- Prohibit Parking on 124th Avenue NE/NE 173rd Street1127th Avenue NE ISSUE: Shall the City Council pass first reading of Ordinance No. 627 to prohibit parking on 124th Avenue NE/NE 173rd Street1127th Avenue NE? RECOMMENDATION: To pass first reading of Ordinance No. 627 as presented. BACKGROUND AND POLICY DISCUSSION: Woodinville Municipal Code Section (WMC) 10.03 establishes parking restrictions on specified public streets in the City. Recently, businesses, citizens, and staff have raised safety and other concerns about vehicles parking on sections of 124th Avenue NE, NE 173rd Street, and NE 127th Place as shown on the attached map. The most prevalent complaint concerns the ability to see oncoming traffic when pulling out of the driveways. Vehicles parked along the road block the sight distance of exiting vehicles to an unacceptable level (20 to 30 feet verses the 155 feet minimum required). Efforts to have these vehicles park elsewhere under the existing law have proven to be unsuccessful (24-hour rule under RCW 46.55.085). After our field review, consideration of traffic volumes, accident history, roadway configuration and purpose, and adjacent land uses, we recommend that on-street parking be prohibited along sections of 124th Avenue NE, NE 173rd Street, and 127th Place NE on both sides of the streets (please refer to Attachment 1 for affected areas). The City surveyed twenty adjoining property owners located adjacent to these roadways. Three responses were received, two supporting the "No Parking" areas and one opposed. Based upon the conditions in the field, the purpose of the roadway, and traffic and safety issues, staff recommends that on-street vehicle parking be prohibited as presented. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Pass First Reading of Ordinance No.627, as presented or amended. 2. Take no action and provide further direction to staff. RECOMMENDED ACTION: I MOVE TO PASS FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 627 PROHIBITING ON-STREET PARKING ON BOTH SIDES OF SECTIONS OF 124rH AVENUE NE, NE 173RD STREET, AND 127TH PLACE NE AS PRESENTED.

We have owned the above cited properties and have been providing s@rvfces for the past ne.idy 40 years; parkfng in these areas without incident. Since your letter did not state what kind of safety concerns were brought up by the citiz.ens who requested the evaluation of the roadway w@ would like more information about concerns raised, We do have a question, why has this become an i~ue au of a sudden?
