<br />, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: It would probably reduce the speed <br />when people got used to it. The first initial shock could <br />create more accidents that you're willing to face. I guess I <br />really don't know the answer at this time.' , <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: Were there several studies quoted out of <br />your traffic engineer's office, on speed 400 feet from stop <br />signs? I believe there were. There are several articles out <br />of traffic engineering studies, actual studies made, that 400 <br />to 500 feet from stop signs, the average speed increased. <br />People over-speed once they have to stop. <br /> <br />MR. MICHAEL OLSON: At least it would give'them a chance <br />to get onto Hamline. <br /> <br />MRS. MONICA TUGGL~, 4126 James Circle: Why is everyone <br />using the Hamline exit? Everyone that works at Land O'Lakes <br />and Control Data, why can't they go down - a lot of people <br />work downtown. Do they have to go down Snelling? (Inaudible) <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: .The traffic is 5300 AnT on Hamline <br /> <br />MRS. NANCY OLSON, 4107 Gale Circle: I just have one <br />question I'd like to ask. I lived in another area and when <br />you come to a spot like this where there is so much emotion <br />and 'everybody wants something, you have to get outside help to <br />come in and solve the problem. Has that ever been considered? <br />Even though it cost a little bit, it did help. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: We have had three outside people - <br />consultants - help us on this. We have had our eng1neer, who <br />is a consultant to us. He's not, the village engineer, as <br />such, he works for the village - Mr. Christoffersen. We have <br />had a highway specialist from Short-Elliott tell us about the <br />traffic flow. We've had our consultant from (inaudible) and <br />Chapman tell us whether it's good, general planning and maybe <br />somebody else. We've had 'the fire chief comment to us and <br />we've had the Ramsey County police comment to us. Anything <br />else? We have our own internal groups, of course, but as far <br />as hiring consultants or people that are not working for the <br />Village, we'd have to pay them. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ADELE ANDERSON, Park Department: I have a question about <br />your last comments. Can you share with us any recommendations <br />or any of the information that Mr. Christoffersen and the <br />other planners you mentioned, the other consultants that have <br />given you information - did they make a recommendation either <br />way? <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: They all did. The traffic consultant <br />merely gave us some figures. Beyond that, Mr. Christoffersen, <br />would you like to comment on your recommendation from an <br />engineering viewpoint? <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: Based on the length of both Norma <br />Avenue and Flor~l Drive and considering the input, the traffic <br /> <br />23 <br />
