Origin
Summary
My office has received concerns of traffic safety on Avondale Avenue during school pick-up and drop-off times, due to the lack of legal parking areas that allow for cars to temporarily stop. To improve the traffic flow and safety for students, I propose a parking amendment on the south side of Avondale Avenue to allow 15 minute interval parking during pick-up and drop-off times.
