RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
AUTHORIZING THE CITY ENGINEER TO APPROVE INSTALLATION OF
RED CURB "NO PARKING" FOR THE PARADISE KNOLL COURT CUL-DE-SAC TO
PROVIDE EMERGENCY VEHICLE ACCESS FOR THE SAFETY OF THE RESIDENTS
WHEREAS, Mr. James Waltz of 915 Paradise Knoll Court has requested red curb
"no parking" on both sides of his driveway to improve access. Mr. Waltz stated that vehicles
often park illegally "head-on" between the driveways, making it difficult for ingress and egress;
and
WHEREAS, City staff surveyed the site and observed that Paradise Knoll Court is
a cul-de-sac that provides driveway access to five single-family residences. The spacing of the
driveways results in small sections of curb between the driveways, which are unsuitable for
parallel parking. As such, drivers are choosing to park "head-on" which is illegal. The cul-de-
sac should be kept clear of parking to provide emergency vehicle access. Ample parking is
available on E. 9th Street which intersects Paradise Knoll Court; and
WHEREAS, at their meeting on August 12, 2009, the Traffic Safety Committee
approved the staff recommendation to install red curb "no parking" for the Paradise Knoll Court
cul-de-sac to provide emergency vehicle access for the safety of the residences.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
National City that the City Engineer is authorized to approve installation of red curb "no parking"
for the Paradise Knoll Court cul-de-sac to provide emergency vehicle access for the safety of
the residences.
PASSED and ADOPTED this 1st day of September, 2009.
