- Where it stands: on 2026-08-11 the committee recommended a stop sign facing Scrimgeour Rd. only, 2-0 (Luis A. Ojeda dropped off the call).
- Next: Council adoption and installation.
Details
- Stephen S. Rolle: stop signs cannot be used to control speed (the federal manual says they are ineffective for that), and the intersection meets no warrant (volume, crashes, sight distance). No approach currently has a stop sign, so the side street should get one.
