ING RESTRICTIONS ON GARVEY AVENUE BETWEEN SAN
ABRIEL BOULEVARD AND DEL MAR AVENUE
In August 1998, the Traffic Commission approved a "post card survey' of businesses on
Garvey Avenue between San Gabriel Boulevard and Del Mar Avenue as a response to
various parking concerns from businesses and a specific request from three business
owners on Garvey Avenue requesting a 15-minute parking zone in front of their
businesses. 72 post cards were to businesss owners and/or property owners and results
indicate that existing parking restrictions are acceptable. The request by the three
businesses for a 15-minute parking zone is due to the fact that their location is like an
"island" surrounded by L.A. Auto Auction, with no on-site parking and with on-street
parking occupied. Staff recommends the installation of a 20-minute parking zone on the
days when parking is at its peak with the retention of the 2-hour parking restriction on the
other days for businesses located at 7951-7953 Garvey Avenue.
Recommendation: Approval of the installation of a 20-minute parking zone on the days
when parking is at its peak with the retention of a the 2-hour parking restriction on the
ther days for the businesses located at 7951-7953 Garvey Avenue.
