RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA,
AUTHORIZING THE INSTALLATION OF A BLUE CURB DISABLED PERSONS PARKING
SPACE WITH SIGNAGE IN FRONT OF THE RESIDENCE AT 1721 WILSON AVENUE.
WHEREAS, Mr. Ramon Pinedo, resident of 1721 Wilson Avenue, has requested a blue
curb disabled persons parking space in front of his residence; and
WHEREAS, the resident possesses a valid disabled person placard from the California
Department of Motor Vehicles; and
WHEREAS, Mrs. Maria-Pinedo, daughter of Mr. Pinedo, stated that they are requesting
- - the accommodation since it is difficult for her father to access their home from the driveway
located at the back of the house and it is difficult for her father to find parking in front of his
residence; and
WHEREAS, staff visited the site and observed that Mr. Pinedo's residence has a driveway
located behind the house; and
_ WHEREAS, staff took measurements and confirmed the driveway meets accessibility
__- standards for disabled persons parking; and
WHEREAS, this item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on February 12,
2025; and
WHEREAS,-staff sent notices to area residents inviting them to the Traffic Safety
Committee Meeting and/or contact staff with any questions; and
- --- WHEREAS, Mrs. Pinedo was in attendance to speak in support of the blue curb disabled
persons parking space; and
WHEREAS, staff presented the results of the site evaluation to the Traffic Safety
Committee and initially recommended denying the request, since the large driveway behind the
house was sufficient to accommodate parking for a disabled person; however, after discussion --
including explanation from Mrs. Pinedo that the gate providing access to their house is old and
narrow, making it difficult to open, and is cost-prohibitive for her to replace, and that her father
has challenges using the back driveway to park because he has difficulty walking long distances
the Traffic Safety Committee voted to approve the installation of a blue curb disabled persons
parking space with signage in front of the residence at 1721 Wilson Avenue, since all three
conditions of the Special Hardship Cases section of National City Municipal Code section
11.32.225(C), Disabled persons parking zone, are met.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY,
CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE, AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:

disabled persons parking space with signage in front of the residence at 1721 Wilson Avenue.
