CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS
COUNCIL RESOLUTION
Date June 28, 1995
A RESOLUTION APPROVING RESIDENTIAL PERMIT PARKING ON TATUM STREET
WHEREAS, the city has a parking policy in place which sets forth regulations
and procedures for establishing residential permit parking; and
WHEREAS, residents on Tatum Street have experienced ongoing problems
with non-residential traffic and parking associated with the University of
Minnesota; and
WHEREAS, through the years various types of signs to limit parking have
• been placed in the area in an attempt to alleviate the parking problem which also
limits parking by area residents, and creates confusion for residents and police;
WHEREAS, property owners have presented a request for residential permit
parking in accordance with the city's residential parking permit policy; and
WHEREAS, the planning commission, following their public hearing,
recommended approval of the request based on the following conclusions:
(1) The residential neighborhood is adversely impacted from heavy non-
residential traffic associated with the University of Minnesota which,
without parking restrictions, would create significant, chronic parking
from the U of M staff and students and associated blight from
automobile traffic.
(2) Residential permit parking will allow residents to leave a personal car
on the street when needed, yet reduce the negative impact from non-
residential parking such as air pollution, noise and litter.
(3) Residential permit parking will keep streets free for residents to have
access to their homes and driveways and will preserve the safety of
children.
