Discussion ensued with Mr. Brian Fields, P.E., City Engineer, Public Works Department.
Commissioner Robert S. Miller spoke for the Record on egress and safety concerns.
Further discussion.
Regarding a Department of Transportation right-of-way, Commissioner Gilmore asked
Mr. Baker, "What is planned by DOT (Department of Transportation) for that?" Mr.
Baker stated, "I don't know." Commissioner Gilmore added, "Why doesn't the City and
the Developers enter into discussions with the DOT (Department of Transportation) for
putting the frontage road in here?"
Commissioner Gilmore then noted, "Why don't we talk to the DOT (Department of
Transportation) about this piece right here and talk to the Church about coming out here,
and then it would solve a lot of our concerns. It is a right-of-way, so why not utilize the
right-of-way for what it is there for?" Mr. Fields stated, "We'll be glad to talk to the
DOT (Department of Transportation) about that. It is probably programmed for six-
laning through there, which may not take up all that right-of-way, but we'll be glad to
bring it up with them and see if they are open to that idea."
Further discussion.
Commissioner Miller stated, "I would like to get a Consensus about - having Staff look
into the possibility of making this DOT (Department of Transportation) Easement, the
way to get out, and they would go out through the Church, exit there, right onto that
traffic light. The alternative to that would be to make one (1) exit onto [State Road]
434 from all of these properties and probably use this one, because he is the first guy
going in and he and his people are going to have to get out of that - residential area - if
he goes forward with this. So I would like to get a - Consensus of the Commission on
both of those Items."
Commissioner McGinnis said, "Yes." Commissioner Krebs stated, "Check into it. "
Mayor Bush added, "We have Consensus on that. "
With discussion, Mr. Baker asked, "Since the plans show the Cross Access Easement
on the private property, could the frontage road that you are talking about be on
private property instead of in the DOT (Department of Transportation) - right-of-
way?" Commissioner Miller said, "Sure, if the DOT (Department of Transportation) is
- going to take it at some point. "
Mayor Bush said, "Anything that you could come up with, that would address what the
Commission is saying here would be good - how it is done." Mr. Baker said, ''All right,
thank you. "

change, and we are going to do an extensive effort in trying to get that out to our
citizenry, but essentially, we will be asking everyone to use this 'Toter' as it is referred
to, and then if you have additional waste, then you set it out in a plastic bag next to it or

Regarding speeding and traffic concerns, discussion followed with Chief of Police Daniel

Commissioner Miller spoke for the Record on supporting Traffic Calming.
With discussion, Commissioner Gilmore stated, "In some areas, I see the sidewalks are
within two feet (2') of the edge of the street. Is it possible in those - and desirable I
should say, in those areas to put a curb in there - I refer to the sidewalk on the - east side
of Shetland [Avenue], that thing is so close to the street, to me it is almost dangerous.
And in some of these, you do have near the streets or near intersections, you are two feet
(2') away from the street."
Mr. Anderson spoke of Arabian Avenue and said, "I felt it was better to put it two feet
(2') away for a very short distance, and get it away as fast as I could to save the trees;
avoid that side of the drainage structure which is the better side of that particular structure
to be on for safety of the pedestrians. I do realize it is two feet (2'). That is not a
desirable situation, but the best solution I feel for that particular area. Everywhere else
we are at least five feet (5')..." Commissioner Gilmore said, "... What would be nice at
that section, if you could have a curb along there." Mr. Anderson added, "That's a good
idea - to extend the existing curb you see, just west of that."
"MY MOTION WOULD READ THAT THE CITY COMMISSION REVIEWED
THE PLANS WHICH WE DID, AND SET A PUBLIC HEARING DATE FOR
