Please <br />call Sandy Weinberg at 505-8563, and advise her if you will not be attending the meeting. <br /> <br />AGENDA FOR THE MEETING <br /> <br />1.Request to make the intersection of Washington and Kingsland a four way <br /> <br />stop. <br /> <br />Please find attached traffic request form submitted by Mrs. Ernest W. Stix, resident at 447 <br />Westgate. Mrs. Stix is requesting that the city make the intersection of Kingsland and <br />Washington a four way stop sign. <br /> <br />On a field inspection, the city has stop signs posted at the East and West bound locations <br />along Washington at the intersection of Kingsland. <br /> <br />Since this request came forth; the City has implemented the following to improve the safety of <br />this intersection. <br />A.Prohibit parking 30 feet upon the approach of the existing stop signs for <br /> <br />westbound and eastbound Washington. <br />B.Prohibit parking 25 feet from the intersection of the curb line with Kingsland for <br /> <br />the westbound and eastbound Washington. <br />C.Relocate the existing stop sign for eastbound Washington to be closer to the <br /> <br />intersection with Kingsland. <br /> <br />The traffic commission has heard this same request in July and September 2004. The <br />commission denied the request because they thought this intersection did not warrant a four <br />way stop. At that time, the commission recommended to prohibit parking for one space on <br />the west side of Kingsland just north of Washington to improve visibility at the intersection. <br />The Council approved and parking is prohibited in that area currently. <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br />V:\WP51\Mariela-Projects\Traffic Commission\agenda\2006\Agenda 10-11-06.doc <br /> <br />
