Item No. 05 352
Date: September 26, 2005
ItemlSubject: Amending Schedule I of Chapter 291, Article III, Sec. 38 (A9) of the Code
of the City of Bangor - Parking Prohibited at Al Times - Ods Street
Responsible Department: Police Department
Commentary:
Otis Street is a 25 fact wide residential street with residences only on the westerly side.
The westerly side of the street a designated "No Parking". When vehicles are parked on
the easterly side of the street, some residents on the west side find it difficult to exit their
driveways. During the winter months, the usable portion of the street narrows due to
snow banks, thereby exacerbating the problem. Currently, City Ordinance does not allow
vehicles to park within 30 feet or an intersection. Extending the no -parking zone on the
easterly side of the street M 230 feet from the intersection of State Street will allow mine
of the affected residents easier egress from their driveways.
Department Head
Manager's Comments:
This issue has been discussed at some length by the Transportation and Infrastructure
Committee, which reviewed a number of alternatives. While none of the alternatives
appears to be optimal, this proposal will address at least a porton of the problem and is
recommended. The Committee has also asked that staff review the situation after the
change is made and return to the Committee to report on haw it has workEd. „„1 pt®
