many of our hilly bay area communities have these narrow winding streets and you see the no parking signs, right, on summit drive in corte madera. abc7 news reporter laura anthony is live and they think the no parking solution in corte madera will work for them. >> reporter: hi, the no parking on heather ridge way hasn't gone into effect now, but residents have been noticed it will sometime soon. this is all part of a fire safety program launched a couple of years ago. oakland is earmarked more than two dozen roads like this one for parking restrictions. the department says this road from pine haven to thorn hill is simply too narrow for any street parking, but some residents say a complete ban is a total over reaction. like many streets in oakland, heather ridge way can be a tight squeeze for a car, much less a fire engine. that's why last month the city

of oakland sent notices to residents that soon there will be no street parking allowed on either side of heather ridge. >> it's not just oakland. this is the greater bay area, marin county, sonoma county. when things start moving quickly in relation to fire, people can't get out in a timely manner and we can't get in when they're trying to get out. >> reporter: a typical fire engine needs 14 feet plus another 6 feet if a car is paukd 07b9 street. a recent survey at heather ridge found some spots is barely 14 feet wide and less than 20 feet in most places. >> it's too much. >> reporter: still some es are dejts sabaning street parking entirely is overkill. >> you see that there's areas where i think a fire truck can pass it's kind of going a nuclear option is kind of a middle ground. >> around here there's lots of streets with similar parking difficulties, and maybe this is just a start. they're going to go through parking everywhere.

i don't know where the cars wind up. >> reporter: another site disastrous, oakland hills fire in 1991 where fire equipment had a hard time getting in. and more recent infernos in places like paradise where people had a hard time getting out. in some cases abandoning their cars to run for their lives. >> clearly the paradise fire has made it very important that we have the ability to get out from where we are. >> reporter: now, complicating the issue here on heather ridge, many of these homes date back to the 1930s. some don't have driveways, some don't have garages. they have nowhere else to park but here on the street. i've seen residents out today with measuring tapes. they tell me that in this area it's at least 20 feet, maybe a little bit more, so they're hoping the city can negotiate with them and at least allow some street parking on these wider sections. it's an ongoing discussion. live in oakland, laura anthony, abc7 news. >> thank you, laura. >> right now san joe police are

looking for a hit and run driver. >> a pedestrian was hit and killed this afternoon at story road and jackson avenue. >> let's go right to the scene for you and abc7 news reporter kris reyes with the very latest. kris. >> reporter: good evening. i am on jackson avenue and this stretch of street has been shutdown from story road and cinderella causing quite a of traffic in the area. you can see there is an active scene. the vehicles involved in the crash, they're starting to be cleared out. the coroner's office arrived about half an hour ago. we are still waiting for the press information officer from san jose police department to arrive with a fresh update. but take a look at shots from sky 7 from earlier this afternoon. ns what we know so far. a pedestrian was killed by a hit and run driver in east san jose thursday afternoon. the crash was reported at story road and south jackson avenue at 3:45 p.m. the suspect left the area on foot and the intersection will be closed to traffic until 7:00 p.m. police are asking anybody who may have seen anything to please

call 911 and for drivers, of course, to avoid the area. now, we have been talking to residents around the crash. none of them want to go on camera, but one person told me she is not surprised at all about this fatality. she told me on the daily they see cars speeding on the street and not only that, but running red lights and doing doughnuts. we'll give you fresh updates. we'll put it on our website as we get them. now back to the newsroom. >> kris, thank you. another crash to tell you about. a 12-year-old girl from brentwood had to be air lifted from the hospital after she was critically hit by a hit and run driver. it happened around 7:00 this morning on sunrise road and trail side drive. the young girl was walking to edna hill middle school when the driver of an suv hit her and kept on driving. the superintendent of brentwood union school district said students who had class with the young victim were told about the incident and offered counseling. >> i think that it's unfathomable that somebody would

leave the scene after injuring a child. it's not really representative of the family and the community we have here in brentwood. >> the young victim was taken to u.c. davis medical center where she is now in stable condition. the female driver was found at a nearby parking lot on elkins way. she was booked into contra costa county jail on charges of dui and felony hit and run. >> a busy street in san francisco's chinatown is now being monitored by new security cameras after local merchants complained about crime driving away customers. city officials and neighborhood leaders hoped to stop crimes like this. you're looking at pictures taken by a business owner when thieves broke into an suv parked outside his store. 18 new high-definition cameras are now recording what happened along stockton street between sacramento and washington. police will be age to use the footage obviously, they hope, to solve crimes. >> new developments today in a case that has sparked a debate over the safety around san francisco's embarcadero. a judge denied bail for the man

but they asked the judge to deny bail, saying he was still a public threat. d.a. spokesman alex bastian. >> we feel strongly detaining him at this juncture while we figure out what the right outcome of this case is is the right approach. >> reporter: vincent's attorney asked the judge to let him out with a gps monitor and enroll him in a rehab program. >> i think this case provides us with a powerful opportunity to decide what we want to do and how we want to help people like mr. vincent. >> reporter: the prosecutor read a statement from kosarian. in part, i'm unable to sleep at night without having nightmares of mr. vincent finding me and attacking me again. the judge ended up denying bail saying jail in this case guaranteed public safety. reid represents the group safe embarcadero to all. >> everyone knows he is a danger to the public and the judge sees

coast of florida late sunday or early monday. this could be a devastating storm and no doubt we'll continue watching its progress. dan? >> okay, spencer, thank you. we sent this push alert on our free abc7 news app this morning as dorian continued to head toward florida. if you want to see alerts like this in the future, download the app from the app store. we'll keep you updated. as part of building a better bay area, we're focused on homelessness and possible solutions to the housing crisis. and in san francisco the city is one step closer to a new short-term fix. the san francisco planning commission today approved a plan to convert a parking lot near the balboa park bart station into overnight parking for people who live in their vehicles. 33 spots would be made available for people to park for up to 90 days. the plan still needs approval from the board of supervisors. >> two san jose schools restricted. where those students could be on campus? somebody spotted aid mountain lion. police did not find the mountain lion which had been seen on the
