RE: Extend no parking on the south side of Ceape Avenue from Court Street to 120
feet west
BACKGROUND
The Oshkosh Fire Department now has a large ladder truck based at station 15. There are 2 on
street parking stalls directly across from the station garage doors. When cars are parked
across from their garage entrances, it is very difficult to maneuver the truck into the garage.
ANALYSIS
The only potential affected party is the office/law building in this area. The owners/tenants of
this building have no objection. There is plenty of off and on street parking available in the
area.
The traffic and parking advisory board recommends approval (5-0).
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of these changes is updated signage which will be covered by the sign department
operations budget.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend approval.
Respectfully Submitted, Approved:
Jim Collins, Transportation Director Mark A. Rohloff, City Manager
