Approve No Left Hand Turn sil!n at the Intersection of Crvstal Avenue and Lake Valentine Road Mr. Moore indicated residents in the neighborhood near Mounds View High School expressed concerns about the cut-through traffic created by students using Crystal A venue to avoid the stop sign back-up on Lake Valentine and Fairview. In order to address this problem with the least amount of inconvenience to the neighbors, the consensus was to install a sign at the intersection of Lake Valentine and Crystal to restrict left turns from 7:00 - 8:00 a.m. on school days. Staff recommended approving a no left hand turn sign at the intersection of Crystal A venue and Lake Valentine Road. Mayor Aplikowski asked if the Sheriff would be present the first couple of days to monitor this new situation. Mr. Moore stated the Sheriffs office would be notified of this change. Councilmember Rem stated there were some neighbors who felt they could not make a left turn during the hours of 7:00 a.m. - 8:00 a.m. She suggested not only contacting the Sheriff before putting in the sign, but also contact the school principal of this change so the school could publish this in their newsletter. She also suggested putting orange flags on the signs to catch the drivers' attention to this change.
