Mr. Sharpe introduced Bill 8740, which was read for the first time: AN ORDINACE AMENDING CHAPTER 10.36 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE, RELATING TO REGULATIONS FOR SPECIFIC STREETS, BY REPEALING SECTION 10.36.150, RELATING TO LEFT TURNS PROHIBITES ON CERTAIN STREETS AT ALL TIMES OR DURING DESIGNATED HOURS, AND ENACTING IN LIEW THEREOF A NEW SECTION TO BE KNOWN AS SECTION 10.36.150 LEFT TURNS PROHIBITED ON CERTAIN STREETS AT ALL TIMES OR DURING DESIGNATED HOURS," THEREBY AMENDING SAID SECTION SO AS TO PROHIBIT LEFT TURNS BY NORTHBOUND VEHICLES ON THE EAST LEG OF TRINITY AVENUE AT DELMAR BOULEVARD BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 7:00 A.M.

COMMENTS Mr. Wagner said the City Manager's notes relating to Bill 8740 indicated Councilmembers could request of him to notify the neighborhoods affected by the Bill, and he would like to have that done. Ms. Welsch asked about the reason for not limiting turns on Saturdays on "the Trinity turn Bill". She noted that traffic is quite heavy on Saturdays and presents the same challenges when attempting to turn left and she would like to know the rationale for including Saturday. Mr. Ollendorff said that his cover memo did not state the situation correctly. That memo reads, "prohibits left turns" but it also prohibits "through traffic" or "crossing traffic." He should have said this Bill will permit right turns only." Page 19
