Mr. Robles stated that it would defeat their purpose to clo~e off only one <br />and s~ated that one solution would he to rezone the whole area C 1 and <br />C 2 so that the residents could sell and leave the area. <br /> <br />Mr. LouHislop, Jr., 2434We~t Stanford, stated that a'lot of the traffic <br />was not using the driveway to stop at Starer Brothers, but for access <br />to the F~sh and Chips restaurant in the shopping center; and asked why <br />a barricade could not be put up to dead-end Stanford Street. <br /> <br />The Director of'Public Works stated that cul de sacs were a desirable way <br />of controlling residential traffic, but that it was prohibitive om streets <br />exceeding 500 feet in length because of the difficulty in getting fire fighting <br />equipment in and out. <br /> <br />Co~mcitman Evans asked lvir. Brink to make a statement as to what he felt <br />the closure of the driveways would do to the Starer Brothers' business. <br /> <br />Mr. Brink responded that he did not know; that he was sympathetic with <br />the residents' problem; that it was conceivable that Something could be <br />done to make access a little less convenient with ingress or egress. <br /> <br />Councilman Herrin stated that he was ~/ery sympathetic with the petitioners; <br />that he had experienced many of the same problems on his o~rn street; <br />that police surveillance had proved effective on his street; that after reading <br />the ,staff report, he was inclined to receive and file the report with the hope <br />that the staff might be able to continue to work with Starer Brothers and <br />the people in the community to relieve the situation. <br /> <br />Councilman Herrin's motion that the report be received and filed with <br />the express understanding that staff continue to work with the people in <br />the shopping center and citizens in the community on the existing traffic <br />problems and make an interim report containing additional solutions to <br />the problem beforethe end of March, 1973, was seconded by Councilman <br />Markel, and unanimously carried on a 5-0 vote.
