Vrf attachment: "¢ounc# Referral, 27t Street Adjacent to Beach Park Unsafe Roadway," by Lt. Alan Zachary, dated 10/26/98 BAKERSFIELD POLICE MEMORANDUM October 26, 1998 To: S.E. Brummer, Chief of Police From: A.L. Zachary, Traffic Commander Subject: Council Referral, 21st Street Adjacent to Beach Park Unsafe Roadway (Rowles) 21 st Street between Oak Street and Westwind Drive, is a 2-lane east/west roadway. 21st Street is abutted at the north curb line by Beach Park and at the south by Jim Burke Ford. The north curb line allows approximately nine, time limited (90 minutes) parking spaces just west of Oak Street. The remaining spaces to Westwind Drive are posted 'no parking.' In this configuration there is ample room for traffic movement both east and west. Parking enforcement is rarely conducted on the time-signed portion of 21st Street, unless there is a complaint. This is due to the fact that almost all of the parking inside Beach Park is not time restricted and there is more than ample parking. On any given day less than one-tenth of the unlimited parking spaces are utilized at the park. Most vehicles parked in the time-signed portion of 21st Street, belong to Jim Burke employees. On October 23, 1998, Police Service Technician T. Freeman was assigned to mark vehicles in the 90 minute zones. Twelve citations were issued for overtime parking. In summation, parking on 215 does not restrict traffic flow. Parking enforcement in that area is addressed on a complaint basis only. This is the first inquiry we have had about parking on 21st Street, causing a dangerous narrowing of the roadway. There have been no reported collisions on 21st between Oak Street and Westwind Drive, due to parked vehicles. Recommendations: Have street maintenance reassess parking needs on 2 l~t Street between Oak Street and Westwind Drive (i.e., removal of time limitation or no parking signs, etc.). Continue to handle parking violations in the area on a random patrol and complaint basis.

'CARSON REQUESTED STAFF PROVIDE A STATUS REPORT REGARDING PLACEMENT OF STOP SIGN AT 8TM AND T STREETS." The Traffic Engineer completed a study of the intersection of 8th and T Streets earlier this month. No warrant for a 4-way stop is met. The last study was consistent with the previous three studies and no changes in traffic patterns, volume or pedestrian usage was noted. The intersection has an excellent history with only one accident reported in over twelve months. Since the volumes observed in all the traffic studies for this intersection are less than half of the minimum threshold required to consider stop signs and the area is built out with no increases in traffic volume expected, a 4-way stop is unlikely to be warranted in the near future. The Traffic Engineer proposes no changes. slw: P:\DATA\WP\1998\WF0017992.8th&T. ref. wpd Page 1 of 1 City of Bakersfield *REPRINT* WORK REQUEST PAGE 1 REQ/JOB: WF0017992 / 001 PROJECT: DATE PRINTED: 10~23~98 REQUEST DATE: 10/21/98 CREW: SCHEDULE DATES START: ±0~21~98 LOCATION: COMPLETION: 11/02/98 GEN.

The street pavement in the 1500 block of El Toro Drive needs some minor patching adjacent to the concrete gutter. There are lots of cars parked out in the street, making it difficult to patch these areas. However, the Street Division will contact residents and patch these areas the week of October, 26, 1998. SPEED BUMPS The plans and specifications for the installation of the Speed Bumps on El Toro and the alley have been completed. The bumps will be installed by City crews to expedite the project. Work is expected to start in a few weeks and be completed about the end of November. The General Services will install the signs and road markings.

The Building Director will order a summary abatement of the 300 wing so we can take immediate action to clean it up. The City can then file a lien against the property for the cost of abatement and begin foreclosure. As directed by the City Council, Economic Development/Community Development Department has a proposal to appropriate $246,000 to the Home Operating Budget to demolish the Casa.
