Parks & Assistant Public Works Superintendent Riverblood stated that parks is currently <br />completing that action and will review that segment the following day. <br />Councilmember Musgrove stated that part of her inquiry on the 13 crosswalks on Alpine is that <br />the striping is fading in some locations. She asked and received confirmation that some of the <br />crossings have been abandoned. <br />Public Works Superintendent Riemer noted that the abandoned crossings have had the signs <br />removed. He noted that some of those crossings were relocated to better locations. <br />Councilmember Musgrove stated that if a driver does not see the sign, there is striping that needs <br />to be refreshed in order to make drivers aware of the crossing location. She noted that some of <br />those roads will become busier when the Highway 10 project begins. <br />Public Works Superintendent Riemer replied that they review those crossing locations every two <br />to three years, regardless of construction activity. <br />Chairperson Riley stated that if the City believed additional crosswalks would be helpful, he would <br />assume those would have been discussed. <br />Public Works Superintendent Riemer provided additional details on crossing locations. He noted <br />again that only seven out of 100 vehicles will stop for a crosswalk, even if it is marked. <br />Councilmember Musgrove commented that she is not requesting additional crossings, simply <br />maintenance of the ones that already exist. <br />6.
