ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT 5.10
TO: Mayor and Town Council December 20, 2022
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 105-2022, authorizing the posting of parking restrictions
along the frontage of Oak Hill Park at 3005 Stone Valley Road
BACKGROUND
Stone Valley Road is a two-lane arterial roadway that includes bicycle lanes and a mix of
raised curb and unimproved shoulder areas in the area of Oak Hill Park and Monte Vista
High School. Currently, there is a combination of 2-Hour Parking and No Parking Any
Time restrictions that extend along the frontage of Oak Hill Park on the south side of
Stone Valley Road, east of Glenwood Court that are within the jurisdiction of the Town.
The area is primarily unimproved (dirt and gravel) shoulders that are occasionally used
for parking and are accessible from Stone Valley Road.
DISCUSSION
Over the past several of years, area residents and members of the public have increasingly
reported concerns to Town and Danville Police Department staff regarding the use of the
existing 2-hour parking area by food truck vendors as a staging area to conduct their
business. This activity primarily occurs during the mid-afternoon lunch hour on
weekdays. The popularity of the vendors has increased over the years and generates
customers that park along Stone Valley Road. The activity has been observed to create
unsafe parking and circulation issues due to customer vehicles blocking the roadway and
bicycle lanes, and/or parking haphazardly along the unimproved shoulder along Stone
Valley Road impeding through-vehicular and bicycle traffic (Attachment B). This has
resulted in a high-volume of public complaints and requests for parking enforcement
assistance that requires daily monitoring and enforcement by staff.
As the Town has no mechanism for regulating where food truck vendors can park, it is
recommended by staff that the existing 325-foot 2-hour parking zone along the frontage
of Oak Hill Park along the south side of Stone Valley Road be converted to a No Parking
Any Time restriction in order to maintain public safety. The recommendation would
extend the existing 50-foot No Parking Any Time designation located just east of the
intersection of Stone Valley Road and Glenwood Court, resulting in a total parking
restriction length of 375 feet (Attachment C).

Feedback was sought from Recreation, Arts and Community Services staff regarding the
demand and utilization of the 2-hour parking and unimproved shoulder area along the
Oak Hill Park frontage. It was expressed that, other than the described activity, there is
infrequent use of the area for parking generated from events and uses of Oak Hill Park
and Community Center activities. In addition to the Oak Hill Park off-street parking lot,
overflow parking for events is available on Glenwood Court, and at the Monte Vista High
School parking lot during non-school hours.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Posting of the meeting agenda serves as notice to the general public.
FISCAL IMPACT
A labor and materials cost of $800 to install the necessary parking signs and poles is
available from appropriated funds included in the 2022/23 Operating Budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 105-2022, authorizing the posting of parking restrictions along the
frontage of Oak Hill Park at 3005 Stone Valley Road.
