Most of the people traveling that road are aware of the curve, but there may be <br />people on the road that are not aware of the curve. <br /> <br />Mr. Gronlund suggested leaving the two chevrons on the corner in place and removing the <br />remaining chevrons. <br /> <br />Councilmember Cook commented the placement of these chevrons was citizen driven, and might <br />as well remain citizen driven. <br /> <br />Public Works Committee I June 20, 2006 <br />Page 1 of 15 <br /> <br />-105- <br />
