There are 2 Moorpark City Transit bus stops located on Second Street:
1. Northwest corner of Second Street and Millard Street
2. Southeast corner of Second Street and bard Street
This is a dangerous location for these bus stops given that the intersection of Bard and Second Street is a high traffic intersection. In December 2017, homeowners at 390 Bard Street had their vehicle damaged by a city bus outside their residence. After attending a Moorpark City Council meeting to voice their concern, City Council has moved to adopt Resolution 10.F under the Consent Calendar for their 1/17/18 City Council Meeting, which proposes that a 65 foot no parking zone be installed at this location.
As long-time residents, we are respectfully petitioning the introduction of this 65-foot no parking zone that would come with adopting this resolution. In addition to removing critical points of access to the residents at 390 Bard Street, creating this no parking zone would further remove parking options from neighborhood residents. Most importantly, this is a high traffic area for school children as they walk to and from school and home every day. Should a 65-foot no parking zone be installed where proposed on Second Street, it would do nothing to mitigate the risk of possible injuries.
Let's let the Mayor, City Council, City Managers know that we are against installing a 65-foot long no parking zone on Second Street.

I am honestly a bit overwhelmed by the attention this has received. This momentum belongs entirely to the neighbors who stood up to protect our street. It is incredible to see how many of you care about keeping our neighborhood accessible and safe.

The city should NOT be allowed to change the current parking design under these conditions. It is a city abusing their power to control public properties. Original design and city planning involving this address probably included safe street access and parking FOR this address. It’s buried deep in their city codes for zoning. Dig..you’ll find something somewhere that stated the need for street parking when the original city plan was made to put a house there in the first place. Win on a public playing field using their own zoning rules against them. Good luck!
Parking is already a nightmare over here. Taking away more street space just hurts the homeowners who have been here for years. Fix the bus stop placement instead of making us pay for it.
30 years in peaceful and a sudden chances that made it becoming an unsecured environment is unacceptable.
This is a simple request with a very simple solution that benefits many. Please adhere to this request, City of Moorpark!
Get it together Moorpark. Your city planning and fiscal management is abhorrent.
