PULLED CONSENT ITEMS <br /> <br />A. Motion to Authorize the Purchase and Installation of Two Speed Display <br />Signs for the County Road E2 School Zone <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Polka stated staff is proposing the City Council authorize <br />the purchase and installation of two speed display signs along County Road E2 for the school <br />zone adjacent to Valentine Hills Elementary. She explained the Council discussed this matter in <br />January and reported the new signs would flash when school was in session and the speed zone <br />was in effect. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes stated she had no problem with the proposed signage but questioned <br />when the signs would be flashing. She asked if the sign would be flashing only in the mornings <br />and afternoons when children were walking to and from school. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Polka indicated staff would be working with the school <br />district and the County on this issue. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes recommended the signs be flashing for more than 15 minutes prior to <br />and the end of each school day. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden requested staff report back to the City Council on the times the sign <br />would be in effect after a conversation was held with the school district. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant believed the new sign would be a great improvement over the current sign that was <br />in place. He supported staff figuring out the proper timeframe for the flashing sign. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden questioned what the City would be doing with the existing school speed <br />zone signs. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Polka stated she would report back to the Council on this <br />matter at a future meeting. <br /> <br />MOTION: Councilmember Holmes moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a <br />motion to Authorize the Purchase and Installation of Two Speed Display <br />Signs for the County Road E2 School Zone, directing staff to meet with the <br />proper school district officials to establish a timeframe for the flashing signs. <br />The motion carried (5-0). <br /> <br />7.
