Built from agendas only; the posted minutes and agenda packets were not read, so outcomes are not recorded.
Action: 8th St NW and University Ave traffic study; staff recommended keeping the existing wood-pole span-wire signal operating and applying for grants to convert the intersection to a mini-roundabout.
Traffic control reviews: changing Valleyview Dr at 20th St NW from yield to stop, adding stop control southbound on 1st St SE at 7th Ave SW, and southbound on 5th St NW at 20th Ave NW. Council was also asked to approve traffic signal cabinet art wraps proposed by the Magic City Lions.
