At a previous meeting, a question was raised regarding the speed limit on
Pennsylvania Avenue. It was noted the speed limit on Pennsylvania Avenue has
, been reduced from 25 mph to 1 5 mph. The average daily traffic count is 927
vehicles with no unusual traffic patterns. City Engineer Rich Baier noted the
driveway and entrance road to the North Greenwood Apartments is on private
property. The City cannot install speed bumps or other traffic control devices on
the property.
(:;)
Identification stickers on resident's vehicles were discussed.
Reverend Graham suggested a "Phase 2" meeting schedule to be discussed
at the next meeting. It appears Monday nights are not the best day of the week for
this task team to meet.
The next meeting is scheduled for October 14, 1 996 at 6:30 p.m. at the
Martin ~uther King Center, 1201 Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue, Clearwater,
