The areas, streets and portions of streets designated as paid parking zones shall be depicted on the Traffic Control Map adopted pursuant to Section 11.04.020; and WHEREAS, Redding Municipal Code 11.28.060 provides that the City Council may by resolution, establish, or modify rates, as they relate to paid parking devices and their hours; and WHEREAS, Redding Municipal Code 11.28.075 provides that the City Council may, by resolution, establish employee parking permit areas and pursuant to California Vehicle Code section 22507(b), an employee parking permit program may be utilized to designate employee parking permit zones that will improve parking availability for customers if the use of the permits will not adversely impact parking conditions for residents and merchants in the area. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL THAT: I The recitals set forth herein are true and correct. A, 2. Pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.24.040 the City Council establishes no parking C7 zones as shown on Exhibit A, attached and incorporated herein. These areas shall be delineated by red curb markings and/or signage. 3. Pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.24.120 the City Council establishes Loading Zones as shown on Exhibit A. 4. Pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.24.170, the City Council modifies the time limited zones within the Paid Parking Zones and declares it unlawful for any person to allow any vehicle under control or in custody to remain, stand, or park for longer than the signed time limits between the hours of 8AM and 6PM on any day except Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, at the locations shown on Exhibit A, and shall be properly signed per the Redding Municipal code. 5. Pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.28.020, the City Council declares that the areas in Downtown Redding shown on the attached Exhibit B labeled Paid Parking Zone Map are paid parking zones. 6. Pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.28.060, the City Council declares that the standard rate within the Paid Parking Zone in Downtown Redding is set at $ 1.00 per hour within on -street locations and off-street locations except for allowances made by the Redding Municipal Code for employee and residential parking permits. 7. Pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.28.075, and CVC 22507 the City Council establishes the Employee Parking Program and finds that: a. After an audit of available parking spaces, the average utilization of the Downtown area is consistently approximately 65%. The City of Redding Municipal Code sets a goal of 85% occupancy, thus leaving 20% of spaces available for additional parking to reach the goal. b. The parking spaces designated as 10 -hour parking areas totals approximately 350 spaces. These spaces will provide allowances for long term parking options surrounding the vicinity of the downtown core. C. Of the 350 spaces available for longer term parking, 175 spaces shall be offered at a discounted monthly rate for qualified Downtown employees in certain designated lots based on the goal of 85% occupancy. d. The provision of an Employee Parking Program will encourage employees to utilize underutilized lots around the core of Downtown, without negatively impacting parking beyond these lots that would otherwise be overwhelmed. e. The development of the Employee Parking Program will encourage employees to move out of the Downtown core on -street parking and utilize the off-street parking areas thereby not adversely affecting parking conditions for merchants within close proximity. The provision of adequate customer parking and employee permit parking will thereby not adversely affect residential areas surrounding the Paid Parking Zone. 8. Pursuant to the findings above that the employee parking areas have approximately 350 off-street parking spaces, 175 shall be made available for employee parking permits in the areas so designated, as shown on Exhibit A. and that, based on the findings set forth in Section 7, above, the employee parking zones so designated will not adversely impact parking conditions for residents and merchants in the area. 9. Pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.28.075, the City Council declares that the Employee Parking Program shall establish a standard rate of $25.00 per month. 10. The City Engineer shall cause to be signed and marked all areas noted on Exhibit A in accordance with the Redding Municipal Code and amend the Traffic Control Map adopted pursuant to Redding Municipal Code 11.04.020 to account for the change in parking established herein. 11. Amendment of the Traffic Control Map is exempt from review under CEQA, per Section 15601(b)(3) — Common Sense Exemption. CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the actions may have a significant effect on the environment; therefore, the activities are not subject to CEQA.
