Voting No: None. <br />Case #14: Report from Public Works <br />1) Review Stormwater Pollution Control Ordinance <br />Acted on under Case No. 11. <br />2) Consider Policy for Traffic Control Modification Requests <br />Public Works Director Olson indicated the Public Works Committee reviewed the draft policy <br />for traffic control modification requests. The current policy for bringing an issue before the <br />Public Works Committee for review requires only a written request or an email from a single <br />individual. The idea and discussion at the Public Works Committee was that traffic control <br />modification requests can be taken at any time from Council and staff if they see a safety <br />concern. The idea was not to limit the ability to respond, but that there would be more <br />ownership in the actual traffic control modification if there are a number of residents in support. <br />The discussion at the Public Works Committee was that the policy should require a petition <br />signed by a minimum of five property owners or residents residing within 500 feet of the <br />requested traffic modification. The motion of the Public Works Committee was to recommend <br />to the City Council that the attached Policy for Traffic Control Modification Requests be <br />adopted. <br />Councilmember Elvig explained there was a fair amount of discussion by the Committee. The <br />idea was not to make it difficult for residents to bring something forward. However, a fair <br />amount of money is expended for speed studies, etc. This policy requires five people within 500 <br />feet of the requested traffic modification to make the request. <br />Motion by Councilmember Elvig, seconded by Councilmember Cook, to ratify the <br />recommendation of the Public Works Committee in Case No. 2 and to adopt the attached Policy <br />for Traffic Control Modification Requests. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Elvig, Cook, Jeffrey, Olson, <br />Pearson, and Strommen. Voting No: None. <br />City Council /November 14, 2006 <br />Page 22 of 31 <br />
