BUSINESS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
YAKIMA, WASHINGTON
AGENDA STATEMENT
Item No.
For Meeting of February 17. 1998
ITEM TITLE: Revisions to Yakima Municipal Code Section 9.50.050,
Parking Prohibited at All Times on Certain Streets
SUBMITTED BY: Chris Waarvick, Acting Director of Public Works
CONTACT PERSON/TELEPHONE: Bill Quitta, Traffic Associate, 575 -6005
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
Yakima Municipal Code, Section 9.50.050, should be revised to include parking restrictions on a
portion of 11th Avenue from Yakima Avenue to Walnut Street. This issue is in response to recent
citizen concerns about traffic congestion caused by parking on both sides of 11th Avenue near
Providence Medical Center. Staff recommends the restriction of parking on the east side of
11th Avenue between Yakima Avenue and Walnut Street. This will create a more adequate travel
way for motorists and emergency vehicles and still maintain one side of the street for the parking
convenience of area residents.
