Council asks county input on possible Zion Road parking restrictions
Summary
Solicitor and city engineer advised that Zion Road is a County road and that Council should consult the County Engineer and police; Solicitor Facenda noted that road-width rules can require permitting parking on at least one side when the roadway is 28 feet or wider.
Council discussed a possible ordinance to restrict parking on Zion Road between Tilton and the bike path and was advised that the street is a County road, so any local restriction would require County consent.
Solicitor Facenda said the Council could suggest no-parking but must first coordinate with the County. He noted that, "based on the roadway width, if 28' or greater you have to permit parking on one side," and recommended that Engineer Gina Nassar contact the County Engineer and that the Police Department evaluate whether parked vehicles create safety problems. Council members agreed to have staff follow up and report back at the next meeting.
