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 2005 GROVE STREET.
WHEREAS, Mrs. Georgina Molina, resident of 2005 Grove Street, has requested a blue
curb disabled persons parking space in front of her residence; and
WHEREAS, the resident and her husband, Mr. Francisco Molina, both possess valid
disabled persons placards from the California Department of Motor Vehicles; and
WHEREAS, the resident stated that she is requesting the accommodation since it is
difficult for them to find parking in front of their residence; and
WHEREAS, staff visited the site and observed that Mrs. Molina's residence has a
driveway and garage; and
WHEREAS, staff took measurements and confirmed neither the driveway nor the garage
meet accessibility standards for disabled persons parking; and
WHEREAS, additionally, staff observed that the slope of the area on E. 20th Street where
Mrs. Molina prefers to have a blue curb disabled persons parking space exceeds the allowable
slope to accommodate a vehicle with a disabled driver or passenger (2% or less) and that the
closest parking space where the slope of the street is less than 2% is on Grove Street in front of
the residence; and
WHEREAS, staff further recommends installation of 20 feet of red curb at the corner,
adjacent to the proposed blue curb on Grove Street, to better inform the public of the parking
restrictions established by Assembly Bill 413, also known as the "daylighting" law; and
WHEREAS, this item was presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on June 11, 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, Mr. Molina 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, after discussion, the Traffic Safety Committee voted to approve staff's
recommendation to install a blue curb disabled persons parking space with signage in front of the
residence at 2005 Grove Street, since all three conditions of the Special Hardship Cases section
of National City Municipal Code section11.32.225(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 2005 Grove Street.
