Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Hardin, Councilmembers Peterson and Beahen. Voting No: <br />Councilmembers Beyer and Zimmerman. <br /> <br />Mayor Hardin suggested stop signs on both ends of 171st. <br /> <br />Councilmember Beahen stated that she shares much of what Councilmember Zimmerman <br />indicated; there is still a lot of friction in that neighborhood. She summarized what she felt the area <br />needed: Place stop signs at either end of 171st, place speed bumps (more than one - at least two) <br />on Zeolite, and to increase Police patrol. She expressed concern about the vindictive language that <br />was used at the neighborhood meeting. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Beahen and seconded by Councilmember Peterson to direct that stop <br />signs be placed at either end of 171st, that speed bumps be put in on Zeolite, and that Police patrol <br />be increased in the area. <br /> <br />Further discussion: Councilmember Peterson stated he could support that but that he would like <br />the motion separated out. <br /> <br />Amendment by Councilmember Beahen and seconded by Councilmember Peterson to direct that <br />stop signs be placed at either end of 171st. <br /> <br />Amendment carded. Voting Yes: Mayor Hardin, Councilmembers Beahen, Peterson, Beyer and <br />Zimmerman. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Councilmember Peterson, regarding Zeolite, inquired of the success the City has had with speed <br />bumps. <br /> <br />Mr. Jankowski responded that the City has done a speed study and there is a decrease of six to <br />eight miles per hour at the 85th percentile. Thus, they have proven effective at reducing speed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Peterson stated he is not quite ready to vote on speed bumps. Maybe increased <br />patrol would work - or what we have done prior to this could ease the situation. <br /> <br />Councilmember Beahen stated she would at least like to see the speed monitored for a period of <br />time. <br /> <br />Mr. Jankowski stated that the sign we had previously talked about is booked up for a few months <br />but he has scheduled renting the sign from the County for October. <br /> <br />Case /12: Proposed Ordinance to Amend the R-1 and R-2 Residential Districts <br /> to Establish Churches as Permitted Uses <br /> <br />Zoning Administrator Frolik stated that Council introduced an ordinance to allow churches as <br />permitted uses in the R-1 and R-2 Residential Districts. That ordinance is being presented for <br />formal adoption. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Zimmerman and seconded by Councilmember Peterson to adopt <br />Ordinance #96-17 to establish churches as permitted uses in the R-1 and R-2 Residential Districts. <br /> <br />A roll call vote was conducted by the Recording Secretary. <br /> <br />Councilmember Beahen: aye <br />Councilmember Zimmerman aye <br />Councilmember Peterson aye <br /> <br />City Council/September 24, 1996 <br /> Page 5 of 13 <br /> <br /> <br />
