City Engineer, the Public Works Supervisor, and the Chief of Police, or their designated <br />representatives; 3) a written summary of the staff committee's findings shall be transmitted to the <br />Road and Bridge Committee; and 4) following review by the Road and Bridge Committee, the <br />person making the request shall be advised in writing of the determination. Also considered at the <br />August meeting was a list of eight commonly requested traffic calming measures, some of which <br />include requests for signs, road closures, speed bumps, etc. Mr. Jankowski stated he would like <br />to get a formal policy that the City Council can support and he was hoping to have time to go <br />through each issue listed. He proposed the posting of four-way stop signs, stop signs and yield <br />signs that we could rely on the manual of traffic control and that it be the basis for these requests. <br /> <br />Upon inquiry by Councilmember Zimmerman, Chief Auspos stated they have talked several times <br />about these requests. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zimmerman suggested there should be more discussion of this issue when <br />Councilmember Beyer is present. <br /> <br />Chief Auspos explained that some signs are not warranted - people want them to control speed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zimmerman felt that it means a lot to homeowners to have child at play or deaf <br />child signs. Sometimes when you grant a request, you have other people that are not satisfied with <br />what you did. <br /> <br />Mr. Jankowski felt that some of the other ones, like "children at play" signs will have more <br />discussion. These signs are discouraged but many cities do post them. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zimmerman suggested having a list for the next meeting and Police Chief Auspos <br />and Public Works Supervisor Mevissen could go over the list and Mr. Jankowski could have some <br />sort of proposed policy at the next meeting. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Consensus was to adjourn the meeting. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 6:08 p.m. <br /> <br /> ~Respect fu lly~~n~'~tt~.xx~x~2 ~ <br />// Jo T~ieli-ng ~ <br />[,~ording Secretary <br /> <br />Ste{,e Janko~tl6 <br />City Engineer <br /> <br />Road and Bridge Committee/September 9, 1996 <br /> Page 3 of 3 <br /> <br /> <br />
