Attachments: ProposedResolutionfor Adoption "Exhibit A,"prepared by David Goodin CityManager'sReport:S.W.73rdStreet Resolution EXHIBIT A: d Proposed StreetStandardsforAngleParkingonS.W.73rd Streetfrom57Courtto59Ave. The public right-of-way corridor for S.W.73rd Street varies from 50to60feet wide between 57th Court and 59th Avenue,with the asphalt pavement itself occupying either 47,46',or 44f of the right-of-way (i.e.,different for each section of the street).An eighteen foot (181)long automobile will extend sixteen feet (16')into the street when parked ata 45 degree angle. Without considering encroachment over the sidewalk itself,an automobile can park over the street gutter which is approximately 2'wide.Therefore,an eighteen foot long car requires 14'of the street pavement for parking.Using this design requirement,the sections of 73rd Street that are developed with 4&wide and47 wide pavements canbe re-painted as follows: 46'18' Sidewalkw/curb&gutter T 14' CenterLine.CenterLme...19'47 Sidewalkw/curb&gutter For the section of 73rd Street where the pavement is only 44'wide,angle parking can only be created on the north side of the street with the south side developed for parallel parking.
