Baker, and Blair O'Cailaghan, 2214 N. Greenleaf, expressed <br />concern regarding the potential traffic impacts on their neighborhood from CalTrans' <br />scheduled closing of the La Veta overcrossing on October 14, 1991 and suggested that <br />vehicles be diverted to 17th Street to prevent the intrusion of through-traffic into their <br />neighborhood. <br /> <br />Following discussion and suggestions by Councilmembers, the Mayor requested the City <br />Manager meet with representatives of the neighborhood to explore possible solutions to the <br />impending traffic problem. <br /> <br />Florence Leach, 2025 W. Tenth Street, suggested that the City should have undertaken a <br />Citywide traffic study suggested sometime earlier by Councilmember Acosta in order to <br />avoid approaching traffic problems on a piece-meal basis. She also expressed concern that <br />the City would have to issue bonds to repay the $20 million dollar loan from the Section 108 <br />fund for the Bristol Street Widening Project. The City Manager explained that no bonds <br />would be issued by the City for this project, and that the loan would be repaid out of future <br />Community Development Block Grant allocations to the City. <br /> <br />Miles Leach, 2025 W. Tenth Street, observed that the Mayor's suggestions were generally <br />only opposed by two Councilmembers and expressed the opinion that Santa Ana's <br />government resembled that of Stalin and Hitler. He also suggested that recommendations of <br />staff needed to be more fully explored by the Council. <br /> <br />CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 295 OCTOBER 7, 1991 <br /> <br /> <br />
