MEMORANDUM
TO: Council
THROUGH: Mike Shelton, City, Manager
FROM Paul Sensibaugh, Director of Public Works/City Engineer
SUBJECT: Resolution 92-86 establishing a stop sign on Barrenda
Avenue at Honda
DATE: August 5, 1986
Recommendation:
The Traffic Committee recommends that Council adopt Resolution
92-86 establishing a 2-way stop interseciton on Barrenda at its
intersection with Honda Avenue.
Background:
This intersection is presently uncontrolled. Due to the con-
figuration of the intersection approaching traffic cannot be seen
in sufficient time to stop.
Discussion
The intersection is considered hazardoius without any traffic
control and many "near-misses" have been reported. It is appropriate
that traffic be controlled heading downhill into the intersection on
Barrenda, since sight distance is greater on this leg than on Honda.
Fiscal Impact
The cost to the City is approximately $75 and can be paid out
of the 1986-87 Fiscal Year Budget - Capital Improvement ($. 50 tax)
