PUBLIC COMMENTS ON ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA <br /> <br />Davidson called for public comments on items not on the agenda. <br /> <br />Douglas Weeks, 737 Nighthawk Circle, Louisville, Colorado stated that there is a problem with cut- <br />through traffic in his neighborhood. A traffic study conducted by the City confirms that there is an <br />unusual amount of traffic from outside the neighborhood. Barriers were temporarily erected on the <br />north end of Nighthawk Circle, allowing a right turn only. Resident responses to a survey from <br />Meredyth Muth, Community Facilitator, are equally split on how to remedy the situation. He asked <br />that Council not look at the neighborhood as divided on what they would like done but realize that <br />although their choices may not be similar, they all agree that this is a safety issue and something <br />needs to be done. <br /> <br />John Gedney, 723 Nighthawk Circle, Louisville, Colorado agreed with Weeks. He stated that the cut- <br />through traffic creates a significant safety issue for the neighborhood children. The temporary <br />barriers erected by the City were highly effective in eliminating cut-through traffic and did not create <br />an inconvenience for anyone previously using the neighborhood as a shortcut. He asked that Council <br />seriously consider placing permanent barriers at the north end of Nighthawk Circle. <br /> <br />Rob Shapiro, 782 Nighthawk Circle, Louisville, Colorado, agreed with Weeks and Gendey. <br /> <br />COUNCIL INFORMATIONAL COMMENTS ON PERTINENT ITEMS NOT ON THE <br /> AGENDA <br /> <br />Davidson reported that on June 1, the City paid off a $5.5 million water bond with funds escrowed <br />from July, 1996 to now. The net effect of paying this bond off will save the water-users of the City <br />of Louisville $2.7 million over the ten years remaining on the bond. <br /> <br />Sisk complimented City staffon the appearance of the flowers and trees outside City Hall. He stated <br />he is looking forward to staff applying their abilities to the arteries and gateways of the City to <br />reproduce the same setting throughout Louisville. <br /> <br />Keany arrived at 7:08 p.m. <br /> <br />REGULAR BUSINESS <br /> <br />PRESENTATION - PROCLAMATION OF COLORADO RECYCLING MONTH, JUNE <br /> 1998 <br /> <br />Davidson read and presented a Proclamation of Colorado Recycling Month, June 1998 to Mona <br />Newton, member of the Louisville Resource Conservation Advisory Board. <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br /> <br />
