Description) Finance: Council Notes: ,CITY OF SAN BERIQRDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT On August 17 , 1992, a report by the Project for Public Spaces (PPS) , entitled San Bernardino Downtown Plan, was presented to the Community Development Commission. This report, among other issues, addressed the fact that many people jaywalk at the "Breezeway" on Court Street, between "E" Street and "D" Street. It is concluded that a mid-block crosswalk will be necessary on Court Street to respond to existing and future pedestrian use . IA mid-block crosswalk was, therefore, included in the plans for installation of diagonal parking on Court Street. ISection 21106 , of the California Vehicle Code, states that local agencies may establish mid-block crosswalks by ordinance or resolution. We recommend that the attached resolution be adopted to establish this mid--block crosswalk. URGENCY CLAUSE: Construction has been started on installation of diagonal parking, and the mid--block crosswalk. This resolution will need to be adopted at the Council meeting of 11-2-92, in order for it to be authorized by completion of construction. 10-27-92 a 0 1 RESOLUTION NO. 2 RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AUTHORIZING THE LOCATIONS WHERE MID-BLOCK 3 CROSSWALKS ARE PERMITTED IN THE CITY IN ACCORDANCE WITH 4 CALIFORNIA VEHICLE CODE SECTION 21106 .
