Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br />City Staff then recommended a sign be installed for approaching vehicles and this was the <br />County’s response: “The “Turning Vehicles Stop for Pedestrian” sign is an optional sign that <br />may be used to help remind motorists to stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk. It is not a <br />required sign and has been used in limited cases throughout the county, mainly where there are <br />high pedestrian and motor vehicle traffic at a signalized intersection or other site specific <br />considerations might justify the need to provide this reminder. The intersection of Hamline and <br />County Road F has moderate traffic and pedestrian levels, there are no site obstructions or <br />unique considerations at this location from my review. This is the basis for not installing the <br />sign that was requested from the resident. <br />Lexington Ave has these signs installed at a few locations (694 ramps and CR F) where the <br />traffic levels are twice that of Hamline. Additionally, Land O Lakes had facilities on both side of <br />Lexington where staff would walk back and forth to the buildings which created substantial <br />pedestrian use thereby substantiating the need for using this optional sign. Characteristics like <br />these are what justify the use of optional signs. <br />The county appreciates the resident’s acknowledgement of the inappropriate driver behaviors <br />exhibited in this area and continues to offer that enforcement is a much better modifier than <br />installing a static sign. The static sign will likely not result in the desired outcome the resident is <br />hoping for.” <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />Staff was requested to bring this item forward to a Work Session for Council discussion. <br /> <br />Budget Impact <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
