pedestrian network." Replacing the parking on the south side of Oakmont Way to <br />provide space for bicycle lanes furthers this Council- accepted objective. <br />3. Oakmont Way is wide enough to support inclusion of striped bike lanes <br />from Coburg Road to Sorrel Way and the planned bike boulevards to the east if parking is <br />removed from the one side of the street. The south side of Oakmont Way supports less <br />on- street parking than the north side. Removing parking from the south side minimizes <br />the reduction in on- street parking. <br />4. As part of the Oakmont Way paving project all existing street markings <br />and left turn preventing median barriers will be removed. <br />5. Removing parking from the south side of Oakmont Way to allow for bike <br />lane striping enables the public to use Oakmont Way in a more efficient, multi -modal <br />manner and, therefore, is in the best interest of the public. <br />6. The addition of bike lanes on this section of Oakmont will complete a link <br />in the bicycle facility network by connecting existing bike lanes on both Coburg Road <br />and the westerly portion of Oakmont with the planned bike boulevard on Sorrel Way and <br />others to the east. A well connected bicycle facility network encourages bicycle travel. <br />Thus, removal of 9 on- street parking spaces to allow for installation of bike lanes in both <br />directions will allow for a more efficient use of the public way by the public. <br />Based on the above findings, I order that: <br />1. Parking be removed from the south side of Oakmont Way from Coburg Road to <br />Sorrel Way. This parking restriction will be in place at all times. <br />2. The existing driveway and access restrictions shall remain in place. Where <br />necessary to accommodate the striping reconfiguration, median barriers or islands will be <br />reconstructed on the relocated centerline. <br />3. If, by action of a hearing official having jurisdiction to review this administrative <br />order, any portion of this administrative order is stricken or modified such action by the hearings <br />official shall have no effect on the validity of any other section or provision hereof, all of which <br />will remain in full force and effect. <br />Dated and effective this 30 day of April, 2012. <br />Thomas C.
