Attendees are therefore advised that such recordings of transmissions are being made whether perceived or unpersceived by those 2 00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:33.440 present and are deemed acknowledged and permissible. >> Roll call, please. >> Stephanie MacArthur, director of traffic and parking. >> Helen Rigo. >> William Sutton, interim director, DCM. >> John Le Point. Thomas Ferris forward, please. Anyone here for citizen input? 3 00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:51.280 Anything that's not on the agenda? Anybody? Great. U motion to approve the minutes from the April 15th meeting. >> Motion accepted. >> Motion by John. Second by Helen >> and third by Bill. 4 00:00:51.280 --> 00:01:09.119 Curb cut opening 87 Etna Street. It's okay. They don't need to be here. Um, the property is currently served by an existing 16 foot curb opening on Veil Street. The applicant proposes to create a new 16 ft curb opening on street and 5 00:01:09.119 --> 00:01:24.960 provide improved access to an existing parking area. Total opening for this location will be 32 ft. That has been surveyed by the engineering department as well as location. They haven't found any issues 6 00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:47.200 and there are no objections to this request per the city engineer. >> Motion to approve. >> Motion first by Helen and second by Bill. That's all. >> A curb cut opening 386 High Street. The existing parcel parcel is currently 7 00:01:47.200 --> 00:02:02.640 cherished by a 14oot curve opening in the driveway on Walnut Street. The applicant proposes to create a new 20ft curve opening for a driveway on High Street to provide access for parking. Total opening for that location is 34 ft. And the site plan has been 8 00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:18.520 completed. Again, the engineering department has reviewed that application as well as the location. They have found no issues. There are no objections to that request. >> Motion to approve. >> Motion to approve by Helen. >> Second >> and seconded by John. 9 00:02:19.040 --> 00:02:36.480 curbcut opening 2325 Salisbury Street. The applicant proposes to create two new 16 foot curve openings on Salisbury Street to provide access and parking. Total opening for the location will be 32 ft. This project has been received 10 00:02:36.480 --> 00:02:52.080 and reviewed for site approval. The engineering department has reviewed that application and they found no issues. There are no objections to that request per the city engineer. >> Motion to approve. >> Motion to approve by Helen and seconded 11 00:02:52.080 --> 00:03:18.959 by John. Miscellaneous >> table request >> request was made by a resident on Lafayette Drive for a stop sign to be posted on St. Jo St. Joseph Northreame 12 00:03:18.959 --> 00:03:36.080 Street due to vehicle speeding coming from Eastern Avenue. >> You was tabled at the last meeting. Person is not in attendance. Is that person in attendance? Come on right up. what I just said. >> If you could just state your name and uh your address, please for the record. 13 00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:51.680 >> Crystal Barkley on Lafayette Drive. >> Okay. >> What do you got going on over there? >> So, there's the school, the Notre Dame school coming down St. Joseph. I live like right at the end of Lafayette Place. Um my kids ride their bikes. They 14 00:03:51.680 --> 00:04:08.799 come out of um Lafayette Place and cars are coming off Eastern A onto St. Joseph still kind of picking up speed, flying down. And my son like just a car just missed my son because um there was a car 15 00:04:08.799 --> 00:04:26.320 coming from um uh what is it? The falls and they're not supposed to come up. They kind of like it's a oneway. They're supposed to come out and go right, but they come and they do a little left onto Notre Dame. 16 00:04:26.320 --> 00:04:41.600 >> Okay. Um, so there's no stop sign the whole way down Notre Dame Street, >> right? >> So >> I mean St. Joseph, sorry. >> St. Joseph Street. So there is a stop sign on St. All >> on Notre Dame. >> Notre Dame coming up. Yeah. 17 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:58.400 >> So I did a study going back to 2021. There was one crash in the Central. >> Oh, really? >> And and the purpose for that crash, the reason was anyway was because >> somebody didn't stop at the stop sign. >> Yeah. >> So um >> Yeah. People coming down >> that St. Joseph Street is about 930 ft 18 00:04:58.400 --> 00:05:14.000 long. It's a rightway. >> Yeah. >> I personally am not a proponent of putting stop signs on on rightways. >> Okay. >> I have not done a study there. I'm waiting for some equipment. There's really no place where I can put one of my trailers to get a count on cars, but I can't imagine that 19 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:31.039 >> um we're going to have a um a very high amount of cars traveling there. I'm not discounting that people are not speeding because I'm I'm sure maybe they are. It's 25 miles an hour there. >> Yeah. It's certainly going to be up to the board, but it would be my recommendation uh for our discussion to 20 00:05:31.039 --> 00:05:46.800 maybe put some slow signs, >> uh children in play, those type of things. >> That would be lovely. >> But it would be certainly up to the board to do that. >> So, we did we did put up some slow signage when the initial request came in um on Monday, March 16th. So, we did put some additional slow signage um 21 00:05:46.800 --> 00:06:01.680 approaching that intersection in between Eastern Avenue and Mason Street. >> Okay. Do we have flashing signs that say slow down? >> That would be great. >> Um, we have the solar pedestrian crossing signage. So, unless there's a 22 00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:18.000 crosswalk there uh that's ADA compliant, that's the one that I can place at that intersection. >> But I'd have to go and see if it's an ADA compliant crosswalk >> to be able to put. >> I'm surprised that the school hasn't like done anything just cuz all the kids, 23 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:32.479 >> right, >> that are, you know, coming out of school and It's just a rough area >> on that other property you're talking about. Somebody coming out the wrong way or or against the one >> the false. >> Yeah. Maybe they could correct some of that signage or put some more to have have 24 00:06:32.479 --> 00:06:48.240 >> they probably wouldn't listen cuz they could just, you know, listen to a stop sign either, right? >> No. Well, yeah, probably not cuz it's a different traffic pattern. So, they might not >> signs are up. >> Yes, the slow signage is up. But the solar pedestrian sign, >> we'll work on a solar solar sign. If I 25 00:06:48.240 --> 00:07:03.759 can get um if I can get the equipment I'm looking for, we We'll get a um a detailed traffic study of there if we can and if it requires it. I mean there are times that yeah we can put them on a on a right away >> on a right away. >> Let's see if that helps you a little bit. >> Okay. Thank you so much. I'm sorry about the children. 26 00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:23.440 >> Feel free to reach out. >> Okay. Thank you so much. Have a great night. >> Thank you. >> We have a we need a motion on it. >> Oh yeah. Motion for the motion. >> Motion to deny or accept a stop sign on it. right away. >> Now you stop signing. >> I second it. 27 00:07:23.440 --> 00:07:37.919 >> Okay. >> First by Helen, second by apologies. >> You're good. >> Uh we have the issue of the William S. Green School to make Brenell Street a one way from Jackson to Lapam. 28 00:07:37.919 --> 00:07:54.000 This traffic pattern will help alleviate the traffic and parking issues and safety concerns brought to the traffic department and the police department and it was tabled in order to contact the abuters. But I believe we're doing a study now. >> Correct. So, um I just want to let all the board members know um after meeting 29 00:07:54.000 --> 00:08:09.039 with the school administration, they are hiring an outside traffic study firm to come in and do a traffic study around certain areas of certain schools. >> So, at this point, the company is recommending that we not make any permanent changes around those schools until the study is complete. 30 00:08:09.039 --> 00:08:24.319 >> Okay. >> Motion table by John. >> I second by Bill. >> All right. So, we'll take that and we'll find out what that study says. >> Yeah. >> Is there anybody here that wants to discuss anything? I don't know if there's anybody here. I don't know if there's anybody here that wants to have a discussion. 31 00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:43.279 >> Is there anybody from uh from Green School for that? Any other Butters? Anybody has any discussion on that? >> Okay. Usually it's the safety consist from Diamond Regional Vocational Technical High School requesting no parking signage on Locust Street from 32 00:08:43.279 --> 00:09:03.279 Stone Haven Road to Hyest and on Hyest Street from Locust to possibly Thorn Hill Road. >> Here, come on up. >> Yes, sir. Mr. Mr. Bentley. Just >> good afternoon. Brian Bentley, 33 00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:23.279 superintendent director, Diamond Regional Vote Tech High School. >> Greg Joy. I'm the architect with Castle Boos Associates, the architect for the project. >> Are you looking to put some signage up to uh >> We are we have construction that's going to be uh that is going on. It will be 34 00:09:23.279 --> 00:09:39.680 completed with the opening of school coming up in this August. Uh what we expect is that when the traffic is circling the building to exit and a traffic pattern which the architect will explain to you and show you a depiction of that is that as they exit from around the building for the safety of everyone 35 00:09:39.680 --> 00:09:55.279 there the buses in particular is that the we clear out that area there has been a conglomeration of cars that do park on higher and street right now because they're going still going into the new the old school. The old school is going to be demolished. It will be 36 00:09:55.279 --> 00:10:12.880 fenced off in its entirety when these begins on September the 8th. As the buses enter the building um enter the drive and they depart dispatch students, okay, they're going to be leaving. If there are cars that are parked on Hyest Street running from the gate um where 37 00:10:12.880 --> 00:10:29.360 Locust Street is heading in a northerly direction towards Thornhill Road or U Bulock Street or going westerly from the gate at Locust Street going towards Feno Street, that's going to be a very tight turn for those buses and parents uh to pick up soon. Parents will be not having 38 00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:44.640 a parent dedicated parent pickup spot just yet. So, it's going to be heavily traffked. If there are cars parked there on both Locust Street and on Hyasin Street, it's going to create a log jam. Right. This is in an attempt to clear 39 00:10:44.640 --> 00:11:00.720 out that area so that the morning drop off and the afternoon pickup will be mostly free for the students to board buses safely, the buses to exit diamond prop uh property safely and for parents to pick up and or drop off their students. Um I do I know that the 40 00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:18.000 architect here, Mr. joint does have some pictorial displays if you'd like to see them. >> Yeah, and I think just echoing Mr. Bentley's uh point, I think this board is not, you know, new to Diamond's traffic circulation and the uh issues around uh either drop off or mainly 41 00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:33.200 dismissal when parents quue along Stone Haven Road. As uh construction progresses and the new building opens, we're we're going to essentially flip uh the site. So the new building will become occupied uh where students will go and obviously where the existing 42 00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:50.880 building w is currently will become uh the construction zone. What that does effectively for uh the traffic is it pushes those drop offs back into the site much more deeply. Uh good for the traffic on Stone Haven Road. Uh but along Locust and Hyasin, which are are 43 00:11:50.880 --> 00:12:08.000 are more narrow uh streets, uh it it does pose some challenges, particularly with queuing for parent drop off. If if the parents that are queuing currently on Stonehaven now start queuing along um Locust Street and Hyasin 44 00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:25.200 intermingled with parked cars. Um it it does kind of represent some potential challenges uh with also bus access going out there for the first year of construction uh of the fields and the demolition. uh the main kind of uh two 45 00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:41.680 bus loops, the bus loop and the parent loop that are on site that will uh you know more or less resolve those traffic queuing issues out on the streets are not available because they sit where the current building is and that needs to be demolished before they can be constructed. Uh so at a minimum this 46 00:12:41.680 --> 00:12:58.399 would be an interim measure. Uh given the feedback we've gotten from the neighborhood uh potentially a permanent measure uh I think would be uh helpful to resolve some of these issues. Uh in the permanent condition uh when the building is back there that that queuing 47 00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:15.519 out on Stonehaven is likely not to happen anymore. One because we have adequate uh queuing space on site. Uh but two uh the building is just kind of so far away that it's it's less likely that people will queue there. It's more likely that they would continue to queue on Locust and Hyasin uh on streets that 48 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:31.440 are somewhat more restrictive in width and and may be problematic. We do see this as a one-year situation. Um it may extend, but at least a one-year because the new building that's being uh that's being constructed will have parent a dedicated parent drop off area and 49 00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:46.320 pickup area. So that eliminates some of the street parking for sure and there will be a different bus route which will be separated from the cars also. So this is for this year coming up uh knowing what we're going to be facing in August when we open up the school. 50 00:13:46.320 --> 00:14:01.760 >> Nice. Are you looking for um school times during the school hours? >> Uh Fenoir Street currently has a I took a picture of it of what it's on Fenoir Street and it just indicates no parking 8:00 a.m. to 400 p.m. Monday through Friday. We think that that probably 51 00:14:01.760 --> 00:14:16.800 might be a little bit of an overreach because when school's not in session, we don't anticipate a problem. Um, but that's the current signage that's on Fenmore right now. Uh, would that work? Oh, that would work fine. Um, so I would go for that. But if it is restricted and 52 00:14:16.800 --> 00:14:32.959 the board feels that they want to say, well, let's do this just doing school hours. We also have to consider do the neighbor does the neighborhood and do parents know the school time hours? They should. >> Okay. But I'll leave it that way. >> And they're visitors. >> Yeah. Yes. 53 00:14:32.959 --> 00:14:48.720 >> And also where on Locust, how far are you looking to do the prohibited parking? Same on Hyestence. Are you looking to go up to Thorn Hill? I know that that when we had that meeting, it really wasn't discussed. >> Thornhill. Thornhill was a good spot. I >> actually the it could go beyond probably 54 00:14:48.720 --> 00:15:05.760 be better. Thornhill is a pretty I'm looking at walking. If I'm a person that's going to walk into the school and I'm down by Thorn Hill, that's a pretty good walk. North Mary Street would actually be a better spot, okay? Because that really pushes it down because that's going to be one of the bus routes that way heading on Highest Hyest Street 55 00:15:05.760 --> 00:15:23.320 and going on Logus Street um up to Fenmore would be a good spot because Fenmore already is no parking. So, we would just keep that in its solidity right there. >> And are you looking for both sides or just one side? >> Both sides. >> Okay. 56 00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:42.000 questions from the board. >> The hour would be se 7 7 to three would be better, Mr. Bentley. >> That's what I was thinking. >> 7 to three. >> Sure. Our our school operating hours are actually uh for Let's go with the faculty. Faculty has plenty of room to spot, but the the glut of cars are 7:30 in the morning until approximately 3:00 57 00:15:42.000 --> 00:16:04.160 in the afternoon. That's the glut right there. Uh I know that this sign that's on Fenmore 8 to 4 is a little throwback to a few years ago. And uh it it probably 7 to three would be better. And once the school gets uh up and 58 00:16:04.160 --> 00:16:20.480 running full-blown and the building is demolished, then the traffic >> we do expect by uh September of 2027 when the school is now back and it's mostly in completion stage to a degree. There will be athletic fields that will still going to go where the current building is right now. Uh it may have to 59 00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:37.040 extend beyond that uh of what I've just stated. Uh but this is a good buffer in there to get people into a patent where are they going to park and when that finally gets relieved with our soccer field, our track and so on football field, it will be uh a welcome addition to people to be able to park where they can. 60 00:16:37.040 --> 00:16:52.399 >> I think for the benefit of the board and and the audience, the the main driver of people queued out on the road and parking out on the road is not necessarily the availability of parking or queuing space on the site even as it currently stands. It's really the confl 61 00:16:52.399 --> 00:17:09.199 the conflict between the bus traffic, >> the student traffic and the parking those that kind of drop off loops going through the parking areas. So when the buses are queued, nobody can get out of the parking when parents are lined up in the Q- line uh through the school right 62 00:17:09.199 --> 00:17:23.919 now. I think most of you have probably been down the drives there. You can't pull out of parking spaces. So to alleviate that that kind of delay in leaving, people park out on the road or people queue out on the road. It's not necessarily for the lack of space on the 63 00:17:23.919 --> 00:17:40.320 building uh side. It's really the the lack of abil ability to get out, right? >> The new bus loops uh are double wide in one direction or parent dropoff loops are double wide in one direction. So there's a lane for queuing and and and waiting and there's a lane for travel. 64 00:17:40.320 --> 00:17:57.919 uh they're separated out uh fully from the parking. So people pulling out of parking spaces are not in direct conflict with those people queuing for pickup. So the new scenario uh not only gives more queuing, you know, line space uh within the site proper, it also 65 00:17:57.919 --> 00:18:15.280 eliminates those kind of uh tertiary delays uh for folks when they're getting in and out of there. So hopefully, you know, the the design is intended to resolve these issues that happen out on the street. Uh we can't obviously control people when they're driving. Uh but uh that is what the design intends 66 00:18:15.280 --> 00:18:32.400 to do and we took a lot of time to to make sure we address those issues best we could uh on the on the site. >> So it's obviously that's a main concern of the bus drivers, right? >> Yes. That's the main the main problem is that >> we have 17 buses uh every single day uh and at the end of the day they stage uh 67 00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:49.520 for the students to come out safely exit the building and get onto the buses but we're mixing them and as Mr. Joints already said with the cars, the parent pickup so it's going to be congested. Uh these stop signs stop signs no these no parking signs would help eliminate that congestion on the turns and the travel. 68 00:18:49.520 --> 00:19:05.280 And if we need to revisit in September of 27 to make an adjustment or removal, we can always do that. >> Absolutely. >> I'm satisfied with that. >> Motion the board. >> We're going to make the motion the same time as 7 to three or the same time on the sign. You want to do 7 to three? 69 00:19:05.280 --> 00:19:34.000 >> I say 7 to three. >> 7 to three. Yes, please. >> Motion to approve from 7 to three. >> Motion by Bill to approve and seconded by John. Sir, >> thank you very much. Have a good day. Enjoy. >> Good day, folks. That's another one for me. 70 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:58.559 >> That was another one for green, >> but it's another >> All right. We have a request to make Cambridge Street a oneway from Ars 4 to Lapam Street. This is around the green school. >> I don't think anybody's here. >> Is there anybody here for that? 71 00:19:58.559 --> 00:20:14.640 >> I'll I'll I'll read it off and then we can table it. >> Uh should be noted this request was by the traffic board on 26th June 2024 and was denied due to opposition from former director of DCM. Uh at this meeting, prohibited parking Monday to Friday, 7:00 to 4:00 p.m. on 72 00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:31.120 the south side of Cambridge Street from Oxford Street and Lapam was approved by the board to help with parking issues with the Green Elementary School. Motion to uh table this >> motion to table. >> Second by John and second. >> And again, I just uh want to add to the 73 00:20:31.120 --> 00:20:46.400 record um this will also be a request that should be tabled until the traffic study is received. I' I'd agree. Once that traffic study is complete, um that may alleviate all of the issues there al together. >> All right. 74 00:20:46.400 --> 00:21:01.840 We have a table handicap from 49 Richmond Street. I you don't have to get up. We looked at it. I did go by the house. >> Um this was um if you have in your packet >> 49 tabled it because the the single 75 00:21:01.840 --> 00:21:18.080 family home does have a driveway and a gate at the front of it. I did go by and measure it. The curb cut is 13.4 and the driveway is 10.4. Um the vehicle that is listed in the 76 00:21:18.080 --> 00:21:35.039 packet was parked uh in front of the house on several occasions I went by. So it it appears at least on the times I went by, which was very random, um the vehicle is not utilizing the driveway. There was a car in there last month. That vehicle is no longer there. Um, so 77 00:21:35.039 --> 00:21:51.120 it would be up to the board to uh and that would be the only disqualifier would be the driveway, but it's it would be up to the board to approve or not. >> You having trouble getting out of the out of the car? >> My my dad, he uses two canes and my mom, 78 00:21:51.120 --> 00:22:07.120 she uses um like a walker and she has oxygen and to open the doors and be able to even me assist them, I can't. And for them to get out, it's very difficult. So having the front parking makes it easier 79 00:22:07.120 --> 00:22:24.159 for the both of them to be able to access the car and and you know get into the car. It's just it it's I mean for the average person who squeeze we do what we can but >> they're like 80. They were born in 47 80 00:22:24.159 --> 00:22:40.520 46. >> Is it that tight? >> The only thing I would add with that is um it's an SUV type vehicle. So, it's probably typically about 8 ft wide. And again, the driveway is 104. So, you you got a couple of feet on either side, but 81 00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:58.080 >> I don't have a problem. >> All right. Is a motion on the board to approve or disapprove? >> Motion to approve. >> Motion to approve by Helen, seconded by John. So, be all you'll be all set over there. Um, just hang on.

But if you come from Robersonson Street up fourth, you can turn on the 109 00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:38.960 Wade because the buses aren't there and people just zoom right by there and then kids are running down Wade Street trying to catch the bus. >> So if you if you sat there and saw that, you'd be like, "How the hell is that happening without someone getting hit or 110 00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:54.080 anything like that?

And and I've seen kids from my window almost get hit a few times, you know. >> Where would you propose putting that sign? right where um fourth and uh Wade Street 113 00:31:27.440 --> 00:31:43.200 because bus comes down on the fourth and the other one comes down Wade Street comes up Wade Street. >> The only thing I would say is once those buses in the road there's no one going by >> they but these cars still go by then. Uh 114 00:31:43.200 --> 00:32:00.320 the bus monitors they're helpless. They can't >> What I'm saying is is once that bus is in the roadway s the car is not going to go around it. >> Yeah. Way too tight. Yeah. That's way too tight. >> Yeah, but I'm just saying on Fourth Street and Wade when you come off the other side of the street, 115 00:32:00.320 --> 00:32:16.159 >> you can still go by the buses cuz that bus is back a little bit on fourth and the other one's back on fifth, but if they're coming off the main street, they can take a right and come down or take a left and come down Wade Street. >> Right. 116 00:32:16.159 --> 00:32:33.640 >> And the kids are running down uh Wade Street trying to catch the bus. >> Right.
