EXCERPTS FROM TRAFFIC AND PARKING COMNIISSION MINUTES <br /> Wednesda , March 12, 1997 <br /> Y <br /> Request from Webster-Cantrell Ha11 to install stop signs at the intersection of 19th and Decatur <br /> Streets. <br /> Matthew Newell received a request from Mr. Robin Crowe stating concerns that there is an <br /> accident problem at the intersection of Decatur and 19th Streets. He feels that stop signs are <br /> needed at that intersection to stop traffic on Decatur Street. The traffic counts are included in the <br /> Agenda material. There have been three accidents in the past three years here. The traffic on <br /> 19th Street is almost twice as much as that on Decatur Street, and the yield sign on 19th Street is <br /> not working for this reason. Drivers are surprised by the oncoming traffic, and this causes <br /> accidents. Staff has agreed to ask the Commission to place stop signs to make traffic stop facing <br /> Decatur Street. <br /> Mr. Crowe stated that he agrees with staffs recommendation. <br /> It was moved and seconded (Hansen / Moore) to accept staff recommendation that the existing <br /> yield signs currently facing 19th Street be removed and stop signs be placed facing Decatur <br /> Street. There being no one opposed, the motion carried. <br /> , <br />
