Funding Source: Not applicable. Recommended Action.: Motion to: Adopt Resolution NoaOS�L , a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Authorizing the Closing of Main Street to Vehicular Traffic for Certain Special Events. Alternative Action(s): Do not adopt resolution to close Main Street for special events in 2005. Cl Gl E-- La REQUEST FOR ACTION MEETING DATE: 21712005 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER:CS05-003 Analysis: Certain special events require the closure of portions of Main Street in the downtown area in the interest of public safety, crowd access, and event operation. The California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) requires a City Council resolution _ declaring the city's intention to close the first block of Main Street in order to issue a permit for the closure. A CalTrans permit is needed at this location (Attachment 2) because Pacific Coast Highway is a state highway with turn pockets onto Main Street. Events occurring in 2005 that require closure of Main Street in downtown Huntington Beach are the Wavecrest Beach Cruiser Meet, 41h of July downtown activities, and Halloween in the Downtown. The times of the day listed on the resolution (Attachment 1), 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, do not reflect the actual times of individual events but rather a time frame that will enable the city to fulfill the CalTrans requirement for closure. In addition, the time frame provides the city with some flexibility for accomplishing the various times for events. Time is of the essence for this approval as the first event is scheduled for March 12, 2005. Environmental Status: Not applicable Attach meal Us : City Clerk's Page Number No. Description 1.
