He indicated that with <br />the traffic on Xkimo Street he does not 'think there are enough signs to tell you the speed limit. <br />He stated he is concerned about traffic flow, but does not think that his professional clients will <br />have office hours during rush hoUr, which will help. <br /> <br />Cmnmissioner Brauer asked if he was Willing to move the main entrance to 143rd Avenue.' <br /> <br />Mr. Feldman stated that is a piece 0f property he dOes not own. <br /> <br />Associate Planner Wald commented that Staff Would be uncomfortable having only one access <br />point fbr eighteen units.: She stated they Can look at other traffic control measures, but would <br />want two access points.: She noted that thei_ access that comes into the first phase straddles both <br />properties and is a shared access for pl-[ase 11 and Outlot A. She added a cross-easement would be <br />needed. <br /> <br />Planning Commission/December 2,'2004 <br /> ' Page 1'2 of 19 <br /> <br /> <br />
