Staff observed the intersections and reviewed the accident reports. Both intersections are <br /> controlled by yield signs. While no past accidents within the last three years were the result of <br /> drivers failing to yield at the yield sign, it is still preferred to use stop signs rather than yield signs to <br /> manage right-of-way at an intersection. Approval of the attached ordinances will remove the <br /> existing yield signs and replace with stop signs. <br /> SCHEDULE: Stop signs are usually installed within 10 days of approval. <br /> BUDGET AND STAFFING IMPLICATIONS: <br /> Budget Impact: Budgetary impacts are approximately $400 for the installation of the requested <br /> signs and pavement markings. <br /> Staffing Impact: Approximately 4 hours of staff time to make and install the signs. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: No objections anticipated. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: None <br /> Page I 1 <br />
