RE:            Agenda items

Item #1 – 6^th Street Blue Curb Request
Residents at 1337 6^th Street have requested a blue curb due to hardships entering their home from the rear dirt driveway with its many stairs and disability.  Their neighbors are also requested a blue curb for the same reason. The new restaurant at the corner of 6^th and O’Neil has customers that take up all the roadway parking space.

Item #2 – North and Ruth No Parking Sign Request
Request for a No Parking sign has been submitted for the western most corner of the North and Ruth intersection. This portion is an unimproved dirt pathway, where the road is 24 feet wide. When a vehicle is parked at this corner, it is that it makes it difficult for traffic to squeeze by. See Figure below for more details.

Item #3 – Stop sign at Notre Dame and Belburn Drive
Request for a 3 way stop at the Notre Dame and Belburn Drive intersection has been requested. A subsequent traffic count was furnished for this intersection for a 24 hour period. The highest hourly volume for a 24 hour count were 263 vehicle per hour with 65 vehicle coming from the minor leg for that hour. This meets the volume requirements for the City’s Stop Policy for installation of Stop Signs at a three way intersection.
