DIRECTOI^Q^ MTG. 1/10/12 APPROVING THE SUBMITTAL OF A FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION CHANGE FOR MONROE STREET TO THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION CITY ATTORNEY ^^^S. DEPT. TRANS APPROVING THE SUBMITTAL OF A FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION CHANGE FOR MONROE STREET TO THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No, 2012-012 approving the submittal of a functional classification change for Monroe Street, from Carlsbad Village Drive to Park Drive, to the State of California, Department of Transportation. ITEM EXPLANATION: This portion of Monroe Street is unclassified in the Circulation Element of the General Plan but functions as a local street. The majority of the street is 40 feet wide curb-to-curb and features curb, gutter, sidewalk on both sides of the street. The portion of Monroe Street from Carlsbad Village Drive to approximately 550 feet south of Carlsbad Village Drive is 48 feet wide curb-to-curb. The portion of Monroe Street from Park Drive to approximately 425 feet north of Park Drive is unimproved on the east side and is approximately 34 feet wide. Adjacent land use along this portion of Monroe Street is primarily single-family residential, Carlsbad High School is located on the west side of Monroe Street between Basswood Avenue and Chestnut Avenue, The posted speed limit on this portion of Monroe Street is 25 miles per hour. The California Vehicle Code requires the residential street prima facie posted speed be limited to roadways that are 40 feet in width or less OR have the functional classification of a local street as stated in Section 40802(b)(1) of the CVC, As a result, the Police Department has determined that the portion of Monroe Street that is wider than 40 feet (to accommodate a northbound left turn lane at Carlsbad Village Drive) is not enforceable. In order to enable our Police Department to legally enforce the posted 25 mile per hour speed limit on Monroe Street and create a consistent speed limit of 25 miles per hour for the entire length of Monroe Street from Carlsbad Village Drive to Park Drive, staff is recommending that the City of Carlsbad submit a functional classification change for Monroe Street to the California Department of Transportation, which would change this portion of Monroe Street from its current functional classification of a collector street to a local street, FISCAL IMPACT: None, ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and therefore does not require environmental review.
