County for stop signs on County roads and is there anything else we can consider to enhance the <br />safety such as striping, warning lights that we can build into the project. <br />Vice Chair Elvig comments are that we are putting a light in at Armstrong and 116 and it will <br />intermittently stop the flow of traffic north and south which would create gapping in the traffic <br />flow which we think will significantly impact the safety and clear traffic at Alpine and <br />Armstrong and we will be happy to entertain this again after the project is complete if this <br />intersection is still a problem. <br />Councilmember Tossey doesn't want to go to the County if we are putting in a trail along <br />Armstrong Boulevard and a traffic light at Armstrong and 116. <br />Motion by Chairperson McGlone, seconded by Councilmember Tossey Based upon discussions, <br />and taking into account the planned Armstrong/Bunker improvement project, recommend to the <br />City Council that staff work with Anoka County to consider options to enhance the safety of <br />Armstrong Boulevard and Alpine Drive intersection during the trail construction component to <br />the project. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson McGlone, Vice Chair Elvig and Councilmember <br />Tossey. Voting No: None.
