,AUG 4 1987 <br />B00K f . <br />These parked vehicles create several hazards: <br />1. Stopping sight -distance through the curve west of the 30th <br />Street/Country Club Drive intersection is restricted; <br />2. The view of pedestrians crossing 30th Street is obstructed; and <br />3. A roadside recovery (shoulder) area is not available. <br />There have been no reported accidents in the vicinity during the past three <br />years. <br />ALTERMATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />1. Authorize the posting of regulatory signs along 30th Street to <br />prohibit parking in the right-of-way. Enforcement can not be upheld <br />until the draft Right -of -Way Ordinance is adopted. <br />2. Permit parking to continue in the 30th Street right-of-way. <br />RECOMIV'DATION AND FUNDING <br />Alternative No. 1 is recamnended to increase safety along 30th Street. <br />Funds are available for regulatory signs in the Traffic Engineering <br />Division budget. <br />TO: County Commissioners <br />r <br />FROM: <br />DATE: August 3, 1987 <br />Since I will be in Tallahassee representing the Commission <br />before the Governor and Cabinet meeting on Tuesday, August 4th, I <br />wish to express mg viewpoint on one of the matters on the County <br />Commission Agenda that is related to the consideration to <br />prohibit parking along the right-of-way on 30th Street in the <br />vicinity of the Vero Beach Country Club. <br />I have been affiliated with this club as a member and a <br />guest of many of the members for over 30 years and believe that <br />the club, although private in nature, contributes a great deal to <br />the recreational and social opportunities for a great number of <br />our county residents. This additional parking is important to <br />the functions that are held at the club and to my knowledge has <br />not created any serious traffic problems. I believe that Michael <br />Orr indicates that there has not been an accident in this area in <br />over three years. I would hope that my fellow Commissioners will <br />take this into consideration and allow the parking to continue as <br />it has for many years without major incident. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously (4-0) <br />permitted parking to continue in the 30th Street <br />right-of-way. <br />20 <br />
