' ' CITY OF ROSEMOUNT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR ACTION CITY COUNCII,MEETING DATE: MAY 6, 199'7 AGENDA: PARKING COMPLAINT AGENDA SECTION: Response to Public Comment PREPARED BY: THOMAS D. BURT, CITY ADMINISTRATOR AGENI�'$�K�:� � ), A ! 1 [=fV1 �} H ATTACHMENTS: Memo, Letters, Photos, Map APPROVED BY: At the April 15, 1997 City Council Meeting a resident asked that the City Council review the parking problems along 143rd Street and Chili Avenue as it relates to parking and after school hours use of a high school athletic field. Staff reviewed the neighbors concerns and have contacted the school athletic director and RAAA coaches, and have requested they inform players and spectators to use the High School parking lot. The Police Department will focus on this area and if there are individuals parked illegally they will receive a citation. In addition, the Public Works Department will extend the yellow paint on the curbs at the intersection of 143rd Street and Chili Avenue, so there is an appropriate set back from the intersection to assure visibility and minimize safety concerns. If there continues to be parking issues along 143rd Street the ne}rt step would be to evaluate posting"no paxking" signs. Prior to such a decision, staff recommends a neighborhood meeting be conducted to solicit input from all residents. We will continue to monitor the area and ask that the residents keep the City informed if . problems continue. RECOMMENDED ACTION: As described above. COUNCIL ACTION: �. ' ' � y � � . . .

Date: April 17, 1997 The attached minutes of the April 15th council meeting show a concern raised by residents in the area of the high school regarding parking on the"Chili Hill". The main concern being that people using the softball field are parking on the streets rather than in the high school lot, while there is little that can be done regarding the legal on street parking we are able to control the parking on the hill by strictly enforcing the posted axea along both sides of the hill.

Apri128, 1997 Deaz Softball Parent: Please see the attached letter from Jim Topitzhofer,the Director of Parks and Recreation. He has brought to my attention a concern that a number of the neighbors in Rosemount have voiced concerns about. I certainly want to try to do whatever we can to get along with the neighbors that live in proximiry to the high school boundaries. Please read Mr. Topitzhofer's letter and from now on,please park in the high school parking lot for all of our games. Even though it might be a slightly longer walk, I think it is a small request that would allow for a better rapport between the high school and Rosemount city residents. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, � Mic el J.
