RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council conduct a public hearing and upon conclusion of the public hearing adopt:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOWNEY
ESTABLISHING A RESIDENTIAL PREFERENTIAL PARKING DISTRICT ON
THE EAST AND WEST SIDES OF BARLIN AVENUE BETWEEN CENTURY
BOULEVARD AND PRICHARD STREET
BACKGROUND
On June 13, 2011 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 11-1284 which established
residential preferential parking program regulations for the City. In order to establish a
residential preferential parking district, a minimum number of property owners must request the
program and the district must meet specific requirements. Among the findings required for
establishment of a district are:
■ A petition containing the signature, printed name, date of signing, and address of owners
of at least 75% of the dwelling units within the proposed district in support of the
proposal;
■ The proposed parking district is predominantly residential and includes whole blocks and
both sides of a street, unless the City Traffic Engineer determines this to be impractical
or undesirable;
■ There exists a shortage of reasonably available and convenient residential -related
parking spaces in the proposed district;
■ At least 75% of the on -street parking spaces within the proposed district boundaries are
occupied during the time of the requested parking prohibition or restriction;
A minimum of 50% of the vehicles parked on the street during the proposed restricted or
prohibited parking hours must be registered to nonresidents of the proposed district;
A determination by the City Traffic Engineer that the size and boundaries of the
proposed district constitutes a self-contained area and would not result in shifting the
parking problem to an adjacent area;

Preferential Parking Permit District on Barlin Avenue
April 10, 2018
No alternative solution is practical or reasonable;
�r
In February 2018, the City received a petition (see attached) from the occupants of the
properties on the 13600 block of Barlin Avenue (east and west sides) between Century
Boulevard and Prichard Street, requesting a parking prohibition at all times every day including
Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, and the establishment of a preferential parking district. The
petition was signed by 14 out of 18 total residences, or 78%, with all 14 in favor of the proposed
parking prohibition.
Staff proceeded with the evaluation of the proposed preferential parking district. Based on field
observations and measurements, there are 33 on -street parking spaces on Barlin Avenue, east
and west sides, between Century Boulevard and Prichard Street.
The Police Department conducted a license plate survey within the proposed preferential
parking district area on November 28, 2017 at 3:30 a.m and November 29, 2017 at 3:00 a.m.
This task involved running each of the license plate numbers for all the vehicles parked within
the proposed preferential parking district area during the proposed hours of the parking
restriction through the DMV database to determine which of the parked vehicles were registered
to owners residing within the proposed preferential parking district area. The results of the
survey conducted are summarized in the table below:
Proposed Preferential Parking Permit District License Plate Survey Results
13600 Block of Barlin Avenue
Based on a_ "review of the criteria established by Ordinance No. 11-1284 and the data
summarized in the table above, staff has verified that the minimum criteria and necessary level
of support by the residents have been met and that the proposed boundaries of the preferential
parking district constitute a reasonably self-contained area. Therefore, staff recommends the
establishment of a residential permit parking district and the implementation of the parking
prohibition at all times within the proposed area. The boundaries of the proposed preferential
parking district on Barlin Avenue are shown in the attached location map. On March 15, 2018,
the Public Works Committee considered this item and concurred with the staff recommending
adoption of the attached resolution (see attached) to City Council..
Provided that the City Council approves the establishment of the preferential parking district and
at least 50% of residents apply for parking permits within 60 days of the passage of the
establishing resolution, signs establishing the overnight parking prohibition with an exemption
for permitted vehicles will be posted. Permits may then be purchased by residents residing
within the proposed district at a cost of $25 annually based on the current fee schedule. If fewer

than 50% of residents obtain permits, or if the number of permit holders falls below 50%,
however, the City Council may repeal the residential preferentialparkingpermit district during a
public hearing noticed at least 10 days in advance.
In addition, a preferential parking district may be terminated by "resolution of the City Council
through a noticed public hearing upon receipt and verification of a petition signed by a majority
(50% plus one) of the property owners within an established district. Such determination shall
be based upon a finding that the conditions set forth in the establishing resolution no longer
exist or have diminished to such extent that the continuation of the district is unnecessary.
The Notice of Public Hearing for this item was published in Downey Patriot on March 29,
2018 (see attached proof of publication). In addition, public hearing notices (see attached copy)
were mailed to the owners and occupants of all properties_ located within 400 feet of the
boundaries of the proposed residential preferential parking district in accordance with Section
3178(c)(4) of the city's Preferential Parking Ordinance.
The proposed preferential parking district is categorically exempt per the provisions of the
California Environmental Quality Act under section 15301(C), Existing Facilities.
Staff recommends adoption of the attached Resolution establishing a residential preferential
parking district on the east and west side of Barlin Avenue between Century Boulevard and
Prichard Street.
The estimated cost of the installation of six (6) new preferential parking district "NO PARKING
ANY TIME" sign is approximately $600. Sufficient funds are available in the 2017-2018
approved budget in account number 10-3145 (Traffic and Street Maintenance Program) to cover
the cost of the new sign installations.
