2. Change Lindell Blvd. from a one-way to a two-way street from Forsyth Blvd. to <br />approximately 120 feet north of Forsyth Blvd. <br /> <br />The area around the intersection of Lindell and Forsyth is highly commercial. The parking lot located at <br />the intersection of Lindell Blvd. Forsyth Blvd is under reconstruction. The new parking lot will have just <br />one entrance/exit facing Lindell Blvd. <br /> <br />Currently, Lindell Blvd. is a one way street from Asbury Ave. to Forsyth Blvd. However, due to the <br />access of the parking lot at the north-west corner of Lindell and Forsyth, drivers usually turn illegally <br />from Forsyth onto Lindell. <br /> <br />Public Works recommends that Lindell Blvd. be a two-way street from Forsyth Blvd. to approximately <br />120 feet north of Forsyth Blvd. and that a barricade be installed at the 120 ft distance on Lindell north of <br />Forsyth Blvd to separate the two-way Lindell Blvd section from the one-way Lindell Blvd. section. This <br />will prevent drivers from continuing in the wrong direction and will visually separate the residential <br />portion of Lindell Blvd. from the commercial area. <br /> <br />Public Works notified the residents and businesses in the 7300 block of Lindell and Forsyth Blvd. of the <br />proposed changes and requested that they provide their comments during this meeting. <br /> <br />Public Works recommends that the proposed changes be approved. <br /> <br />3. Parking Meters near the intersection of Lindell Blvd and Forsyth Blvd <br /> <br />Please find a sketch attached showing locations where the City proposes to install approximately 42 <br />parking meters. The meter locations are as follows: <br /> <br />Area-street Parking <br />spaces <br />Parking lot in the north west corner of Lindell and Forsyth 15 <br />Lindell (East side) 5 <br />Lindell (West side) 5 <br />Del Lin (East side) 5 <br />Forsyth (north side east of Lindell) 6 <br />Forsyth (north side west of Lindell) 6 <br />TOTAL 42 <br /> <br />Public Works will notify the residents and businesses in the 7300 block of Lindell and 7300 block of <br />Forsyth Blvd. of the changes.
