2. Illegal car camping and dumping of trash and debris along Pitchford Avenue west of Westec Drive have created safety issues and has placed a burden on City resources. 3. Closure of Pitchford Avenue west of Westec Drive was requested and is supported by adjacent property owners. 4. This segment of Pitchford Avenue does not currently serve as a vehicular route and closure will not cause any detriment to the public or the abutting property owners. The abutting property owners do not currently use this segment of Pitchford Avenue for on - street parking purposes. 5. It is in the best interest of the public's health, safety and welfare to close the segment of Pitchford Avenue west of Westec Drive to vehicular traffic until such time as one of the abutting properties develops in a manner that will take access from this segment of Pitchford Avenue or Pitchford Avenue is extended to make it a through street. 6. The closed segment of the Pitchford Avenue will remain accessible to emergency vehicles. 7. ` The closed segment of Pitchford Avenue will remain open to pedestrians and bicycles. 8. The City's adopted transportation -related plans and policies do not require that this segment of Pitchford Avenue remain open to vehicular traffic. Upon development of property that will take access from the segment to be closed, or extension of Pitchford Avenue making it a through street, the segment will be reopened. On the basis of these findings, I order that: 1. The segment of Pitchford Avenue west of the intersection with Westec Drive, approximately 1,500 -feet in length is hereby closed to vehicular traffic until property taking access from this street segment is developed or Pitchford Avenue is extended to make it a through street. 2. Pedestrian and bicycle access remains open through the barricade. Dated and effective this 8 day of April, 2016. Matthew J. Rodrigues AIC Traffic Engineer Administrative Order -- Page 2 of 2
