NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOWNEY DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council adopts all above recitals as findings and incorporates them by reference.
SECTION 2. After review of the application submitted by the residents of the proposed district, the required criteria set forth in Downey Municipal Code Section 3199.6(c)(2) has been met as follows:
100% composed of single-family residential uses and includes the entire 11700-11800 block of Corrigan Avenue.
(fi) Multi -family properties, if any, within the proposed district boundaries consist of duplexes, triplexes of fourplexes only.
The application meets this criteria because the proposed permitted parking district is AT4*TW-t

(iv) A minimum of fifty percent (50%) of the vehicle parking spaces within the X,r#,F#saj�-mstrk-,tai or itrilhAitat!

Staff has further determined that the size and boundaries of the proposed residential preferential parking district would reasonably constitute a self-contained area, and therefore, the establishment of said district within the aforementioned boundaries will be effective in terms of addressing the on -street overflow parking issue which exists at this location without any shift of parking overflow to adjacent areas; (vi) The street block in question is a designated residential street Forpurposes of this section, "residential street" shall be defined as any street located within an area zoned as residential which does not appear on the Circulation Plan contained within the Circulation chapter of the City's adopted General Plan.
