DESCRIPTION
The Roads & Drainage Division received a request from a representative of the Sundance HOA to restrict parking along Sundance Boulevard. Sundance Boulevard is located in the Mulberry area in S-27, T-29S, R-23E, and is classified as an Urban Collector road.
Staff conducted parking studies on Sundance Boulevard to analyze this request and determined that vehicles are parking in the median, creating sight obstruction issues.
Pursuant to FS 316.008, the Board of County Commissioners is vested with the authority to set parking restrictions on County roadways. Additionally, the posting of the requested restrictions will promote public safety and assist the Polk County Sheriff’s Office in their enforcement efforts.
To comply with statutory requirements, it is necessary for the Board to adopt a Resolution establishing the parking restrictions.
RECOMMENDATION
Request Board adopt the associated Resolution to establish parking restrictions for Sundance Boulevard. Estimated cost for installation of the signs is $121.32.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding is budgeted in the FY 22/23 Transportation Millage Fund.
