— a — <br /> Swartz believes that installing signs will not improve <br /> safety or other neighborhood problems. He sees that, in order <br /> to make the intersection safer, a yield sign will determine who <br /> is at fault. This Commission tries not to over-sign and tries <br /> to - limit signs to where they are absolutely needed. He is not <br /> convinced either way. <br /> Bauer noticed that all the accidents have been caused by <br /> southbound vehicles and the tree obstructs the view. <br /> Barthelemy commented that the neighborhood drug problem is <br /> being enforced and a sign would not help the matter. <br /> Swartz commented that the Commission is not opposed to <br /> signage; the question is the proper signage. <br /> Bauer would like to see a stop sign instead of a yield sign <br /> because of the obstruction. <br /> Schiller moved to place stop signs on Calhoun, and Main <br /> would be a through street. <br /> Barthelemy seconded the motion. Those in favor we�e Phil <br /> Bauer, Jim Schiller, David Swartz and Mark Barthelemy. Matt <br /> Newell, Bryan Curlin and Judy Moss were opposed. <br /> Moss is opposed because it seems the Commission has always <br /> been in favor of yield or no sign when a stop sign is requested. <br /> She feels too many signs could create accidents. <br /> Curlin feels traffic on Main Street should stop instead of <br /> Calhoun. <br /> Newell stands with his recommendation. He would be willing <br /> to do another evaluation in 30 days. <br />
