Ms. Sachar stated that the reason for the change is that the Clayton School District is greatly enlarging Gay Field and will now have games and practices at night. They may also rent out the Field for other kinds of activities. They anticipate a large overflow of cars and a lot of activity on residential streets during the evening. The Traffic Commissioners voted for the restricted hours for the residential parking permit system be changed and extended to 12 (noon) to 9:00 p.m. every day. 3.Study for Del Lin Drive Please find attached a traffic request from Sean Davis dated September 17, 2005. He is requesting that Del Lin Drive be blocked at the alley just south of Forsyth Blvd. He stated that residents along Northmoor are concerned about the amount of commercial traffic, theft, vandalism, crime, litter and illegal parking, mostly from businesses on Forsyth. Currently, parking is prohibited on Del Lin Drive as follows: Del-Lin Drive: West side thereof between Northmoor Drive and Forsyth Boulevard. On the northeast corner of Del Lin and Northmoor from the east property line at 7347 Northmoor to a line extending five feet north of the access driveway for 7347 Northmoor. Also, parking is prohibited on the east side of Del Lin, for 25 feet south of Forsyth and on both sides of the entrance of the alley just south of Forsyth. High commercial traffic may be a result of the Metro construction project. This area is under study because it is in the vicinity of the future Forsyth metro link station. The traffic commissioners voted for the request to close the street at the alley to be denied and for the area to continue to be studied for possible parking problems due to metro link construction/implementation.
