Potential danger in eliminating 1IIl emergency access route to the High School and to I <br /> certain lo<;al residents. .. <br /> 2. Setting a dangerous precedent for others in the city to request turning their public <br /> streets into cuI.de.sacs because of what might be done on Valenti~.e. <br /> 3. Possible drainage problems created by closing the street. <br /> The committee did, however, have some sympathy for the proposalllIld reconunended I <br /> that the residents present a more detailed plllIl to City Council. Detail such as breakdowns <br /> of the damage caused at this point, and why the specific problems and circumstances are I <br /> unique to their area and would therefore not give cart-blanche to other city residents to <br /> make similar requests, etc. <br /> This is certainly not the first time that traffic around the High School ha.s been defined as a I <br /> problem. Perhaps Council and the Committee will have to examine more creative methods <br /> to address the issue. Currently it is'not possible for the police to patrol Valentine at the I <br /> key times and enforce the traffic laws because of limited resources. <br /> Ramline Ave Sidewalk Snow Removal: I <br /> The committee agreed to table the discussion of this issue for one moth. Dwayne will <br /> provide some cost estimates for providing this service at the April meeting. Because of the I <br /> snow being thrown onto this walkway from street plowing and also because.ofthe <br /> retaining wall that borders a good portion of the sidewalk, Dwayne has reservations about <br /> how effective the effort can be. eI <br /> "No Left Turn" at Crystal Ave: <br /> The committee proposed to install a sign stating "No Left Tums" onto Crystal Ave (from I <br /> County Road F) between the heavy morning traffic hours of 7:00 and 8:00 AM. Due to <br /> feedback from the Sherifrs Department and also to lack of complete support from all the I <br /> Crystal residents, the City Council decided against supporting the installation of the sign. <br /> Consolidation of City Waste Removal & Retycling: I <br /> Leslie volunteered to investigate what some options would be to set up a contract so that <br /> waste removal and recycling C{)uld be done on the same day citywide and perhaps by the I <br /> same company. She noted that contracting with a single hauler can possibly involve the <br /> city if the city's hauleris named in any lawsuits. Something to be wary of. <br /> Renaming of County Road F: I <br /> The committee decided that this is not an appropriate issue for OUf involvement. We will I <br /> not spend time with it. <br /> I <br /> .. <br /> I <br /> i <br />
