Resolution No. 9741
Resolution of the Council of the City of Palo Alto Amending Resolution No. 9739
Continuing the Evergreen Park-Mayfield Residential Preferential Parking District
(RPP) Program to Expand the Program Area and Add a New Zone G on the East
Side of El Camino Real Between College Avenue and Approximately 189 Feet
North of Park Boulevard, and Make Technical Corrections and Clarifications
RECITALS
A. On January 23, 2017, the Council adopted Resolution No. 9663, which established
the Evergreen Park-Mayfield Residential Preferential Parking Program pilot and rescinded
existing parking restrictions that conflicted with the restrictions established by this RPP district.
B. On February 5, 2018, the Council adopted Resolution No. 9739 concluding the pilot
and continuing the Evergreen Park-Mayfield Residential Preferential Parking Program as an
ongoing program. At that time, the Council expressed a desire to expand the District boundary
to include the east side of El Camino Real between College Avenue and Park Boulevard which
would be established as a new, separate parking zone. El Camino Real is a state highway under
the jurisdiction of Caltrans, and the application of the RPP regulations to El Camino Real is
therefore subject to Caltrans' approval.
C. The Council now desires to expand the District boundary as described above and
make some technical corrections.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Council of the City of Palo Alto RESOLVES, as follows:
SECTION 1. SECTION 3, "Parking Restrictions within District", of Resolution No. 9739 is
amended to read as follows:
SECTION 3. Parking Restrictions within the District.
A. Two-hour Parking Limit and No Re-parking. In the areas within the District listed in
Table 1, no person shall park a vehicle adjacent to any curb for more than two hours.
Re-parking a vehicle more than two hours after initially parking on the same day in the
same Parking Zone is prohibited. These restrictions shall be in effect Monday through
Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, except holidays as defined in Palo Alto Municipal
Code Section 2.08.100. Vehicles properly displaying a valid Parking Permit as described
in Section 4 of this Resolution are exempt from these restrictions.
