Memorandum To: Ron McLemore, Charles CaJTington City of Winter Springs From: Victor Dover Date: June 12, 2002 l' Sul~ject: Hickory Grove Boulevard on-str:eet parking Ron and Charles, .. R~arding the on-street parking on Hickol"}' Grove Boulevard: The original Master Plan produced by our office envisioned parallel parking next to the sidewalk on both sides of the median in this street section. Curb-to-curb dimensions are thus shown in our Master Plan at 18'. with 12' sidewalks between the curb and R.O. W. linc. The Town Center District Code allows ,with DRC approval, a change from parallel parking to diagonal parking on a case-by-case basis. The curb-to-curb dimensions of the street must then be adjusted accordingly (V General Provisions: 1. Parking; 2. On-Street Parking). The Code requires 18' in cross section tor the diagonal parking stalls, The Code is silent on which dimensions should be used for the drive aisles as this dimension varies a great deal depending on the angle chosen for the diagonal parking. Diagonal parking laid out at a relatively shallow angle can be accommodated in a 28' curb-to-curb dimension. Many conventional suburban parking standards (such as the Dade County Zoning Code) recommend 29' curb-to-curb tor 45 degree diagonal parking. A slightly narrower dimension is preferable on tramc calmed streets. Diagonal parking at angles greater than 45 degrees allows for a somewhat greater number of parking spaces over a long run. however parking at angles greater than 45 degrees is less desirahle a<; it causes slrcets to begin to look and feel like parking lots. Regarding the;diagonal on-street parking on Hickory Grove Boulevard shown on the latest plans sent to us for review: The diagonal parking in question along Hickory Grove Boulevard appears to be 33' curb-to-curb (11iribbon curb, 10' drive aisle, 2' valley curb, 18' parking stall, 2' gutter apron). According to conventional suburban standards, this should accommodnte diagonal parking at an angle somewhere in-between 45 degrees (29') and 60 degrees (commonly reql:1ired to be 34.7' curb-to-curb). ll1C question is not wheth~r the curh-to- curb dimcnsiolljshown in the plans can accommodate diagonal parking, the question is whether it can accommodate an angle as steep as that desired by the applicant (this angle currently appeurs to be 60 degrees). Our recommendation, in order to create streets that feci urban and not like drive aisles in a parking lot, is that the angle of the diagonal parking be kept as close to 45 degrees as possible. (f the <lngle is kept to 45 degrees, the curb-to-curb dimension call be reduced by 4 or even 5 fect and this width within the R.O. W. can be given to the sidewalks (presently shown at 7') achieving a sidewalk width of II or 12 lee I.
