The Traffic Advisory Committee voted to replace 20‑minute time limits with two‑hour parking in front of 1424 through 1444 Fremont Boulevard after a presentation from Leslie Lantero of the Public Works Department.

Lantero explained staff received a request from a business owner at 1444 Fremont Boulevard who said customers commonly need longer than 20 minutes to complete transactions. She noted the green curb markings had historically signified 20‑minute time restrictions and that current code within the Central Traffic District allows the city to impose different time limits via posted signs. Staff recommended replacing the 20‑minute signs with two‑hour parking signs and graying out the green curb for the specified frontage; other adjacent frontage (vacant lot and liquor store) would remain with existing markings.

Committee members asked whether the applicant lived above the business and whether other merchants supported the change; staff said notices had been sent to nearby businesses and that at least two of the four businesses on the block would see their frontage change to two‑hour parking. No opposing public comment was recorded in the posted meeting.

A motion to approve the sign changes was made, seconded and carried by voice vote. Staff will implement the change by replacing signage and repainting curb markings as described and will finalize cost estimates as part of routine maintenance work.

The action was procedural: it changed time‑limit signage and curb markings and did not involve a larger zoning or land‑use decision.
