5A. Stop Sign Request at Juniper and Walnut
Mr. Anderson said the intersection is in an older neighborhood from the late
1960's and there is inconsistency as to what intersections have stop signs and
what intersections are uncontrolled. He noted that the roads in the area are
due for reconstruction in several years. Walnut carries the bulk of the
neighborhood traffic. The intersection does not meet warrants for a three-way
stop condition. Mr. Anderson recommended a stop sign for traffic on Juniper
as it meets Walnut. He also recommended adding two additional stop signs at
similar intersections on Walnut and one at Elm to provide consistency.
MOTION: Mr. Grawe moved, second by Mr. McKenzie, to recommend the
installation of four stop signs as recommended by the City Engineer. Motion
passed 5-0.
