(1160-00 TRAFFIC) Mayor Stout asked Joe O'Neii to explain why it takes so long for the study on speed limits to be completed. Joe O'Neil, City Engineer, described the process. Councilmember Alexander suggested that staff meet with the residents in the community to let them know the process for installing a signal and how speed limits are set. He stated he would be happy to be there also. Mayor Stout felt this would be a good idea to get the residents input on setting of speed limits for this area. He suggested Councilmembers Alexander and Gutierrez have a noticed, public meeting at one of the elementary schools. Councilmember Buquet felt the City should be careful in how they move forward with this because he did not feel a political process should be used in setting a speed limit. He continued to inquire of Mr. O'Neil how the temporary signal would be handled. Joe O'Neil, City Engineer, explained the design of the temporary signal. Councilmember Gutierrez stated he agreed with Councilmember Alexander and Mayor Stout's suggestion for the public meeting with the neighbors in the Fairmont/Milliken area. Councilmember Buquet suggested that something come out in the Grapevine as to how speed limits are determined as an intbrmational item for the entire community. Mayor Stout agreed and felt information on the traffic signal installation process would also be beneficial for the general public to know about. Nancy Negretti asked if the temporary signal would be in place throughout the school year and inquired if a signal would be going in at Victoria Park Lane and Mi!iiken. Mayor Stout stated the temporary signal would go in before school started. He added there is a signal scheduled for Victoria Park Lane and Milliken, but that there is no money for it to go in at this time. Ms. Negretti inquired if a temporary signal could be installed at the Victoria Park Lane and Milliken location. Mayor Stout added a temporary signal cannot go in for a three to five year basis before a permanent one can be installed. Jim Frost, City Treasurer, reported on a similar situation that had previously occurred in front of Alia Loma High School and how it worked out. He stated he was pleased that there is a proposed signal at Fairmont and Milliken.
