DISCUSSION
City Council approved a property owner request to install a green zone in front of the home business at 912 East Commonwealth Avenue in May 2018, designating the area as 15-minute parking between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, holidays exempt to provide short-term parking for deliveries.
The property owner no longer needs the green zone and requested removal as it negatively impacts the availability of on-street parking for new tenants at that property.
Staff does not expect removal to negatively impact adjacent residents, tenants or property owners since the City installed the green zone specifically for 912 East Commonwealth Avenue. Removal of the green zone would return this curb space to unrestricted parking, except for the “Early Morning Parking” restriction between 2:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m.
The City Traffic Engineer recommended granting the property owner request to remove the green zone in front of 912 East Commonwealth Avenue. The Transportation and Circulation Commission unanimously supported the City Traffic Engineer recommendation.
