Session 1939 November 15, 2004 steps to pursue. One of those was a general, area-wide education program on the meaning of cross-walks, and that one involved work with the County Municipal League. They, in turn, recommended to East West Gateway that it be a major part of their pedestrian safety campaign and East West Gateway recently advised the City it would become part of their efforts. Ms. Brot then said if light-timing is not lengthened at Kingsland Avenue, if there will be an increased number of people turning left and if it will be more dangerous, especially at certain times of day. Mr. Wagner suggested that the County's suggestion of opening the gates at Kingsbury Boulevard could alleviate some of the congestion on Kingsland Avenue. Mr. Ollendorff said the ordinance needed to be amended to add the word "through" at appropriate places and that the City Clerk had been advised of the appropriate wording for this document. Mr. Wagner moved to amend and Mr. Sharpe seconded. The amendment was passed unanimously and the City Clerk will make the changes. It was decided to hold this Bill over again until the next meeting on December 6, 2004.
