In order to do this, the City and the Police Division need the ability to change traffic patterns and parking regulations in Muirfield Village to include implementing one -way traffic on designated streets and prohibiting parking on a variety of streets. For the most part, this request is the same as presented last year. As noted in the accompanying legislation, we are requesting that Council temporarily waive certain provisions of the Sign Code in order to facilitate traffic movement and to provide directional signage; waive the restrictions regarding the loading and /or unloading of commercial waste receptacles within 500 yards of any residentially -zoned property between the hours of 7 a.m. to 11 p.m; and create temporary fire lanes on Strathmore Lane and Dunsinane Drive on the fire hydrant side of the roadways. This allows implementation of a workable traffic and public safety plan to accommodate the large volume of traffic and spectators for one of the signature events in the City of Dublin. Again, we anticipate generally following the same plan used in recent years. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of Resolution 16 -11 at the April 11, 2011 Council meeting.
