i <br /> # � <br /> Page 2 <br /> intersection is different because of the accident rate. This demonstrates people driving through <br /> the intersection cannot handle all the other problems here. <br /> � Lt. Barthelemy has no problem with stop signs on Folk; he would oppose them on Division. <br /> Judy Moss expressed surprise at the average speeds shown by the traffic counts. Newell advised <br /> the traffic count was done on a Thursday, which Mrs. Hurd said was a heavy traffic day. <br /> BartheleFny believes that people traveling in this area use Division as the through street. A stop <br /> sign on Division would not be obeyed. This would cause worse accidents than what there have <br /> been. � <br /> Newell stated that installing stop signs on Folk would not slow the traffic down on Division. He <br /> mentioned there is a police officer assigned to this neighborhood. The neighborhood people have <br /> talked to this officer about a specific person who was causing a problem. The officer has taken <br /> care of that problem. Things like this will stop the speeders. <br /> Moss mentioned that the children of the neighborhood should be made awaze of the trafiYc and <br /> told to stay out of the street.

There being no one opposed, the motion carried. <br /> Nordholm added that he is glad we have this kind of system where the residents can come to the <br /> City and voice their concerns, and have something done about them. <br /> Mrs. Hurd is also concerned about the parking at the corner of Division and Woodford. Matt <br /> stated that parking can be pulled back from the corner on the east side of Woodford and that he <br /> will investigate it. <br /> Item#2 Staff request to temporarily change Church Street to two way between Wood and <br /> Eldorado Streets. <br /> Newell received a request from Soy Capital Bank to change Church Street between Wood and <br /> Eldorado Streets from one-way traffic heading north to two-way traffic. Discussion began of <br /> intersections and signalization. The Bank's original thoughts were to expand the drive-up lanes <br /> and this traf�ic change would benefit them. Newell told them that he would oppose access to the <br />
