THE. CORPORATION OF THE
CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM

COUNCIL

MEMORANDUM JUN 9 - 1985

TO: Be Kirk June 5, 1986
City Administrator

FROM: FE. Peters, P. Eng.,
City Engineer

SUBJECT: Angle parking on Flint Street south. of Manning Avenue =
Public Works Committee - June 3, 1986

Recommendation:

That the west Sstde of Flint Street between Manning Avenue and
Coquitiam Avenue be designated for angle parking only.

Background and Comments:

The portion of Flint Street recommended for angle parking is

. adjacent to Aggie Park. The portion of Aggie Park south of Coquitiam

Avenue already has angle Parking. The portion north of Coquitiam
Avenue jis used both as angle and paralie!. There ts no curb or
Pavement in this section. so that the angle parking would have to be
designated by signs only. The boulevard area is narrow in this case
and would normaily not be considered suitable for angle parking.
However, the Committee feels that angle Parking ts justified In this

case because of the shortage of Parking adjacent to the park and the
fact that Flint Street is not a heavily used road.

Because there is no curb on this portion of this street, there
is the Possibility that angle parked cars Will encroach on the

considered in a future budget. The portion south of Coquittiam Avenua
was curbed for that very reason severa| years ago.
