EXCERPTS FROM <br /> TRAFFIC & PARKING COMMITTEE MEETING <br /> JULY 14, 1993 <br /> — Item #2 Request for stop signs at the intersection of North <br /> 33rd Street and Meadow Lane. <br /> Swartz noted that staff has recommended that stop signs should be <br /> placed on Meadow Lane. , <br /> New�ell stated he cannot see why the accident rate is so high at <br /> this intersection, but the traffic on 33rd seems to be the <br /> through and dominating street in the neighborhood. The speeds on <br /> 33rd are significantly higher than on Meadow Lane. <br /> Swartz stated the ADT is not high enough to place a stop sign in <br /> a normal circumstance. <br /> Newell stated there is no standard ADT at which to place stop <br /> signs for a two-way stop condition. There are traffic require- <br /> ments for four-way stops. <br /> Swartz does not want to set a precedence for future situations <br /> like this. . <br /> Newell stated that the accident rate requires attention, even <br /> though the traffic volumes are low. <br /> It was moved and seconded (Hughes/Curlin) to accept staff recom- <br /> mendation for the placement of stop signs on 33rd Street facing <br /> Meadow Lane. There being no one opposed, the motion carried. <br />
