Davidson asked Paul Wood, Planning Director, to remail the letter sent every year to the local real <br />estate companies telling them where they can put "Open House" signs. <br /> <br />REGULAR BUSINESS <br /> <br />APPOINTMENTS TO BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS <br /> <br />Davidson appointed David Ferguson to the Historical Commission and Kyle Callahan to the Resource <br />Conservation Advisory Board. <br /> <br />DISCUSSION/DIRECTION - HOOVER STREET PEDESTRIAN CROSSING <br /> <br />Mayer had been contacted by the neighbors of the intersection of Hoover and Sycamore about what <br />they felt was a high level of danger for their children crossing the intersection. Tom Phare, Bruce <br />Goodman, Tom Mayer, and neighbors had a meeting at that intersection. Phare did some speed <br />studies and 15% of the traffic is traveling in excess of 35 m.p.h, in a posted speed limit of 25 m.p.h. <br />Mayer sent a memo to Council listing possible alternatives. <br /> <br />Richard McDonald, 248 West Sycamore Lane, Louisville, Colorado, felt the situation is an accident <br />waiting to happen. <br /> <br />Denise Brewer, 381 West Sycamore Lane, Louisville, Colorado, asked Council to consider placing <br />white crossing lines and yellow flashing school zone lights at that intersection. She presented Council <br />with a petition. <br /> <br />Janet Obenchain, 169 West Sycamore Lane, Louisville, Colorado, stated that her home is on the <br />corner of this intersection and she has three children. She spoke of the dangers of the intersection <br />and asked that something be done. <br /> <br />Laurie (INAUDIBLE), 176 West Sycamore Lane, Louisville, Colorado, spoke of the number of <br />children coming to the school from all over town for T-ball and Soccer practice and that something <br />needed to be done. <br /> <br />Tom Phare, Public Works Director, felt the more yellow flashing school zone lights there are, the <br />more disobedience and less respect for the school zones. He commented that, if Council chose to go <br />ahead with the yellow flashers, he wanted criteria established that he could use to apply toward <br />additional requests. He stated that the traffic count on these two streets was 1,000 vehicles. <br /> <br />The neighborhood showed a short video. <br /> <br />Davidson called for Council questions. <br /> <br />Lathrop asked about the cost of the yellow flashers. <br /> <br /> <br />
