5. 2. <br />Public Works Committee <br />Meeting Date: 05/21/2024 <br />Primary Strategic Plan Initiative: Not Applicable <br />Title: <br />Consider Recommendation to City Council to Request Proposals for Intersection Control Evaluations for <br />Riverstone North <br />Purpose/Background: <br />A resident of Riverstone North has requested the installation of STOP signs at 4 different intersections in the <br />Riverstone North residential development. A total of 13 intersections exist in the Riverstone North development. <br />Attached is a figure showing these streets. <br />Based on a preliminary review of these intersections Staff believes one or more STOP signs may be warranted. <br />However, Staff is concerned that changing the traffic control layout at one intersection may adversely affect <br />traffic operations at one or more other intersections due to drivers changing their routes to avoid the new STOP <br />signs. Therefore, Staff recommends enlisting the services of a traffic engineer to complete an intersection control <br />evaluation for the entire Riverstone North development. <br />Notification: <br />Staff proposes to request City Council approval on May 28th to issue requests for proposals.for an intersection <br />control evaluation of the Riverstone North development. If approved, Staff will directly solicit requests for <br />proposals from several local traffic engineering consultants. <br />Time Frame/Observations/Alternatives: <br />Time Frame: <br />Staff anticipates up to 10 minutes will be required to present this case and respond to questions. <br />Observations: <br />Riverstone North is fully built -out so traffic volumes and patterns should not change significantly over time. <br />Alternatives: <br />Alternative # I : <br />Motion to recommend City Council approval to request proposals for Intersection Control Evaluations for <br />Riverstone North. <br />Alternative #2: <br />Motion of other. <br />Funding Source: <br />No funds are required at this time. Staff will request proposals as part of their normal duties. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends alternative # 1. <br />Outcome/Action: <br />
