RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION:                     

                     Approval of the Ordinance.

 

ITEM SUMMARY: 

                     This Ordinance amends parking regulations in the Downtown Area as follows:

o                     Designates the parking spaces on Tennessee Street between Cloyd Street and Davis Street as three-hour parking.

o                     Removes the No Parking Zone on Davis Street between Tennessee Street and McDonald Street.

 

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: 

                     Engineering Staff and Main Street Staff have worked with property owners in the Downtown area regarding on-street parking and recommend the spaces along both sides of Tennessee Street between Davis Street and Cloyd Street be designated as three-hour parking.

                     Due to the relocation of both the Central Fire Station and the Collin County Government Center, the No Parking Zone located on Davis Street between Tennessee Street and McDonald Street is no longer needed.

 

FINANCIAL SUMMARY: 

                     The cost to change the signs and markings is available in the Public Works operating budget.

 

BOARD OR COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
