Traffic Study indicates potential for four-way stop signs at: a) Riverside and Joy b) Lakeshore and Machado c) Graham and Langstaff d) Graham and Poe e) Lakeshore and Poe f) Machado and Joy The only intersection which study shows would warrant a four-way stop sign is the intersection of Lakeshore Drive and Machado Street. , 31 Page twelve City Council Minutes Augus t 28, 1984 REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS - Continued. Mr. Culp - Continued. 2. The only intersection which warrants a traffic signal, based on Cal-Trans guidelines, is Riverside Drive and Lakeshore. - Mr. Culp recommended that prior to installation of traffic signal at Riverside Drive and Lakeshore and four-way stop at Lakeshore and Machado, we review with Cal-Trans, coordinate with the County and perform a formal traffic study done by an engineering consultant. Mr. Strigotte commented on the traffic study report and feels that we have ample justification for four-way stop signs at all the intersections which were studied. The results of the study are not conclusive, for the following reasons: 0 1) School system is mandating that childred living within one mile are required 0 to walk to and from school. 2) Some intersections have no sidewalks and ch i 1 dren wi 11 be walking during (Y') peak traffic hours. W 3) All accident reports have not been given to the City. In the future, all CD reports will be sent to the City Engineer. <t 4) Traffic Counters were tampered with. Mr. Strigotte requested resolutions authorizing five four-way stop signs be presented at the next Council meeting. Also, before school begins, crosswalks at intersections need to be painted. He commented that the intersections of Lincoln and Machado and Collier and Central need to be reviewed. - 3. Mr. Culp reported that a member of his staff, John Riley, has informed him that we may be eligible for federal funds for a city-wide traffic control inventory, which will include recommendations for signing and signalization. There is also the potential for receiving a computer, plotter, printer and software, so that we can maintain an on-going record of traffic engineering problems within the City. Mr. Culp will update Council as this project proceeds. r~r. Corcoran 1. Reported that on August 27, 1984 he received a copy of a Memorandum of Donation from the Santa Fe Railroad.
