<br />C.~,~nication was presented fr~n the Planning Commission recommending approval of
<br />
<br />vacation of Delhi Road right-of-way lying outside of the new alignment (now known
<br />
<br />as Warner Avenue), inasmuch as it has been determined that the street is unneces~
<br />
<br />sary for present or future proposed use, and that it serves no purpose as dedicated
<br />
<br />Protests
<br />Proposed painted
<br />traffic island
<br />North Broadway and
<br />Seventeenth Street
<br />
<br />and the matter was taken off the Agenda.
<br />
<br />The matter of a proposed painted traffic island on North Broadway and 17th
<br />
<br />at the south end, was again presented, and Attorney Milford W. Dahl, 401 W.
<br />
<br />Street,
<br />Eighth
<br />
<br />Street, representing a group of the residents in the area~ requested the Clerk to
<br />
<br />read a letter addressed to the City Council, dated March 6th,1961, fr~m Attorney H.
<br />
<br />Rodger Howell, 201 W. Eighth Street, reference the protests of Dr. Paul Freeman
<br />
<br />others, to the left-turn lane being proposed for the intersection of Broadway and
<br />
<br />17th Street, and requesting further study of this problem by the Traffic Engineer.
<br />
<br />On motic~ of Councilman Gould, seconded by Heinly and carried, the communication
<br />
<br />was received and filed. Attorney Dahl presented a pe%ition, signed by approxlmatel
<br />
<br />persons, opposing the No Parking restrictions at Broadway and 17th Street, and
<br />
<br />thirteen individual letters from Dr. Paul H. Freeman, 1603 North Broadway; A. S.
<br />
<br />Bash, 1732 W. 17th Street; Jessie F. Ferris, 730 South Ross Street, and others,
<br />
<br />protesting the No Parking signs in front of the Welsh Rest Home, 1611 No. Broadway
<br />
<br />and Dr. Paul Freeman's office, 1603 North Broadway, and on motion of Councilman
<br />
<br />Gould, seconded by Heinly and carried, the petition and communications were
<br />
<br />and filed. Attorney Dahl stated that on the west side of Broadway, Dr. John P.
<br />
<br />Davis and Dr. Arthur B. Wade have developed the maximum parking space, and on the
<br />
<br />east side no adequate development has been made to provide parking. Further, chan-
<br />
<br />nelizing all of the traffic flow to Flower Street and Broadway will not solve the
<br />
<br />problem, and suggested the installation of a three-way signal, on a trial basis,
<br />
<br />with additional time taken for further study by the Traffic Engineer. Dr. G.
<br />
<br />Stanley Norton, 1722 Heliotrope Drive~ inquired about placing a No-Left Turn sign
<br />
<br />at said intersection between the peak hours of ~ P.M. and 6 P.M., and Councilman
<br />
<br />Heinly answered his question. It was moved by Councilman Gould, seconded by Brewer
<br />
<br />and carried, that action be continued on this matter until April 17, 1961, a study
<br />
<br />be made by the Traffic Engineer as to the feasibility of a two-cycle or a three-
<br />
<br />cycle traffic operation, and to discuss the matter with Attorneys Dahl and Howell.
