DISCUSSION The City's permit parking program was established to limit intrusion of nonresidential and commuter parking into residential neighborhoods. The Valley High Permit Parking District, initially created in 1993, is generally bounded on the north by Edinger Avenue, on the east by Raitt Street, on the south by Warner Avenue, and on the west by Greenville Avenue. Owners and residents of properties on the residential blocks west of the Valley High Parking District have noted a lack of available parking on their streets and have asked to participate in the City's permit parking program. These residential blocks are not within an established permit parking district. Consistent with City policies, staff worked with the property owners to determine whether support exists to institute a permit parking district. Sufficient petitions were received from residents of Everglade Street between Anahurst Street and Maywood Avenue to meet the criteria for permit parking. Similar inquiries had also been received from residents of nearby streets. Therefore, to establish an area that accommodates any future requests, staff recommends amending the existing Valley High Permit Parking District boundary to include the area bounded by Edinger Avenue, Greenville Street, Warner Avenue, and Fairview Street (Exhibit 1). Council adoption of this resolution is required to finalize the new Valley High Permit Parking District boundaries (Exhibit 2). STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #5 Community Health, Livability, Engagement & Sustainability, Objective #4 (support neighborhood vitality and livability). 55A -1 Resolution Amending Valley High Permit Parking District June 7, 2016 Page 2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project is exempt from further review.
