� TRAFFIC COMMISSION MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 26, 2002
ATTENDING: MAYOR NANCOLAS, GORDON LAW, CHRIS ALLGOOD (FOR
SOBBA), AND BRUCE ALLCOTT
1. Request for additional entrances to 1703 E. Chicago St. lot — request for access
off Franklin to this property. Discussed concerns with proximity to intersection
of Franklin and Chicago and with Denver and Franklin. Action: Gordon will
review with architect and see if the distances from intersections and lining up with
Denver will allow access off of Franklin or not.
2. Request for vacation of Juniper Ave. by CCHD — We reviewed this using the
standard criteria for evaluating vacations of right-of-way and determined that it
would not be appropriate in this case. Action: Capt. Allgood will work with
Gordon to word letter to the highway district advising that the City would not
want this right of way vacated.
3. Request for larger stop sign at 18 and Cleveland — we reviewed the accident
statistics for this intersection and determined that it would warrant some efforts to
improve it. Action: Mayor to contact requesting party to advise that we will be
placing a larger stop sign there as well as posting a"stop ahead" sign before that
intersection when approaching from the south. Gordon will see that signs are
posted.
4. Request for vacation of right-of-way for west Morrison from Kimball to Parker —
• discussed at length. This section is needed for emergency vehicle access and thus
vacation of R-O-W would not be appropriate. Consideration of other options
such as making it one-way in etc. were discussed but it was felt that we did not
have adequate information on how that might impact others living in the area of
Parker and those in the apartment complex. Action: Bruce will write a letter
explaining this decision and requesting that the applicants provide more support
or comment from others affected by the making of it a one-way street.
