City Council <br />Study Session Summary <br />November 10, 2015 <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />• Crosswalks <br />• Traffic signals <br />• Speed bumps <br />• Speed radar <br />• Speed trailer <br />• Enforcement (summonses, warnings) <br />Council member Keany asked about rumble strips which will not interrupt <br />snowplowing but will cause other unintended consequences such as increased <br />noise. <br />Planning and Building Safety Director Russ said roadway geometrics and the <br />surrounding environment must match. <br />Council member Keany also asked about various signage. <br />Council member Lipton likes markings on the pavement. He is concerned that <br />McCaslin is becoming a thoroughfare and speed is increasing. Lipton would like <br />staff proposals to address the issue. Council member Loo would like to know if <br />ticketing works to slow McCaslin drivers down. Chief Hayes said it is a <br />temporary fix, and only works for a couple of weeks. Flashing lights were <br />discussed. Whatever the City decides to implement must be widely <br />communicated. Council member Keany said the lights on the flashing signs <br />need to be maintained. <br />There was a discussion of the Washington /McCaslin intersection. <br />Council member Loo would like to see the cost of increased enforcement. <br />Michael Menaker suggested that the issues are mostly at rush hour. <br />Accidents and intersections were discussed. <br />Mayor Muckle would like some standard of how the City will handle traffic. There <br />is general agreement that speed on McCaslin is increasing. He would like <br />rational solutions both long and short term. Kowar said painting crosswalks is <br />minimal. Signs are $30,000, bump outs $5000 per side. <br />Council member Loo said most of the problems are coming from neighbors. The <br />City needs to do a public education effort. <br />Chief Hayes will look at summons — wording shows why we do what we do. <br />Maybe warnings should look more like tickets. Warnings build relationships as <br />the person recognizes they are not getting a ticket. <br />
