Forwarded to Council Members <br /> ' Via e-mail on 2/1/O1 at 2:46 p.m. <br /> Mayor Swedberg explained he had done a- ride along with the police on a snowy morning <br /> and witnessed the issue with the stop sign on Main Street first hand. It is not clearly <br /> visible and people are going through same. <br /> Mr. Palzer explained that the City may not modify or change signs in the County right-of- <br /> way. Mr. Palzer referenced a letter from Police Chief Heckman and concurred with his <br /> recommendations. Mr. Palzer suggested talking with the County to get flashing lights to <br /> alert people of the intersection. <br /> Mayor Swedberg stated that the City could requested that the County improve the stop <br /> sign or install flashing lights or authorize the City to make the improvements and assume <br /> the expenses associated with same. <br /> Council Member Capra requested that 5taff obtain costs for installing flashing red lights <br /> at the intersection. Mayor Swedberg concurred. <br /> Mayor Swedberg suggested sharing the costs of installation and the flashing lights with <br /> the County and School District. <br /> Mr. DeVine suggested the City contact the County to request that the pavement markings <br /> be repainted on the street as they were removed when the pavement was scraped this fall. � <br /> Mr. DeVine stated that markings are not visible and felt that it would be helpful if they I <br /> were. <br /> Council Member Broussard Vickers suggested requesting that the police department to <br /> conduct a sting operation at the intersection and ticket individuals that do not stop for the <br /> stop sign. Mayor Swedberg stated he was uncomfortable with same, due to the fact that <br /> people simply do not see the sign and the problem needs to be resolved. <br /> Council Member Capra questioned the number of violations for this particular area of <br /> concern and Mayor Swedberg indicated that the information was contained in Council <br /> packets. <br /> Mr. March stated he would like to see an overhead stoplight at the intersection to improve <br /> safety at the intersection and to be used for hanging community banners and holiday <br /> decorations. <br /> Council Member Broussard Vickers asked Staff to ask the County when they intend to <br /> repaint the crosswalks and to request them to do it as soon as possible. <br /> Mayor Swedberg directed Staff to prepare cost estimates to install rumble strips, <br /> rearrange signs, install an overhead stoplight, and to install overhead flashing lights for <br /> Council review and discussion. <br /> VIII.
