STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
The existing ordinance establishing permit parking requires modification to allow
neighborhoods outside the coastal zone to apply for permit parking restrictions on their
local streets.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve for reading by title only Ordinance No. , amending Section 10.42.030 of
the Huntington Beach Municipal Coderelated to Residential Permit Parking.
ANALYSIS:
On September 6, 1988, the City Council directed that modification be made to the
existing code section pertaining to permit parking. This was prompted by a request for
relief from parking pressures created by Huntington Beach High School students on a local
neighborhood.
The amended section will allow any street of a neighborhood to apply for parking relief.
The methods for determination and establishment of the district(s) have not been
changed. Costs to establish the district (s) are borne by the participants.
FUNDING SOURCE:
No funds are required by this change.

Disapprove the modification as written and give direction for other changes to be made.

ORDINANCE NO. 2977
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
AMENDING SECTION 10.42.030 OF THE
HUNTINGTON BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO
RESIDENTIAL PARKING PERMIT
•
The City Council of the City of Huntington Beach does ordain
as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 10.42.030 of the Huntington Beach
Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows:
.10.42.030 Designation process and criteria. (a) Petition
of residents. The director is authorized to establish districts
upon the following criteria:
(1) Upon receipt and verification of a petition signed
by persons occupying dwelling units comprising not less than 75
percent of the developed frontage of the street proposed for
designation, the director shall undertake such surveys or
studies as are deemed necessary to determine whether a street
should be designated as a residential parking district.
(2) Findings of need and necessity. If the director
finds that on -street parking on a street is substantially
reduced or impaired by commuter vehicles for an extended period,
the director may recommend to the city council that the street
be designated as a residential parking district.
(b) Factors to be considered. In determining whether a
street identified as eligible for designation as a residential
parking area may be so designated, the director shall consider
factors and criteria which include, but are not limited to, the
following:
(1) The extent to which the residents desire and need
permit parking and their willingness to bear the administrative
cost in connection therewith.
(2) The extent to which legal on -street parking spaces
are not available for the use of residents and their guests
because they are occupied by commuter vehicles..
(3) Whether other regulatory measures would better
solve the problem, e.g., parking restrictions and strict
enforcement of such restrictions.
