Giu.ESPIE Chief of Ponce THOMAS P. GENOV5SE City Treasurer SUBJECT: Stop Signs at Various Locations BAciGROUND INFORMATION As development continues within Tract 2865 (Pardee), it is recommended that additional &too sians be installed for positive right-of-way assignment. Upon adoption of the attached resolution, tha developer will be required to install stop signs at the intersections shown on Exhi:bi t "A" and listed below: 799 Moorpark Avenue 1. One-way stop on Blairwood Driva at Christian Barrett Drive. 2. One-way stop on Vinewood at Christian Barrett Drive. 3. one-way stop on Trailcrest Drive at Christian Barrett Drive. 4. one-way stop on Candlewood court at Christian Barrett Drive. 5. One-way stop on Cedarpine Lane at its tee intersection with Christian Barrett Drive. 6. one-way stop on Ashbrook Lana at Christian Barrett Drive. MOOfpBfk, California 93021 (805) 529-6864 Page -2- Due to sight distance restrictions and lack of positive right-of-way assignment, it is also recommended that aone-way stop be installed on Los Angeles Place at AvenidaColonia. Although this is a four-legged inter&8ction, itapparently operates as a tee intersection, with the northleg unused. If approved, this sign would be installed byCity forces. Due to perceived speed problems, local residents haverequested that the existing two-way stops be converted to:four-way stops at the intersections of Cedarpine Lane -Christian Barrett Drive (Exhibit "C 11 ) and Millard Street -Second Street (Exhibit "D") . Al though traffic counts havenot been conducted at these intersections, it is unlikelythat volume warrants would be satisfied for the installationof four-way stop signs. According to City records, therehave been no :reported accidents at either intersection. Because Sit op signs have been shown to be ineffective inreducing mid-block speed, we cannot recommend theinstallation of these four-way stop signs. As in the past, however, the council may choose to approve the signs basedon considerations other than the technical facts. If Resolution 87-__ is approved, the local developer wouldinstall the signs on Christian Barrett Drive and the Citywould install the signs on Millard Street. RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt Resolution 87-�'f authorizing the installationof stop signs at various locations in the city. 2.If the Council deems it appropriate, adopt Resolutiona -authorizing the installation of four-way stopsigns at the intersectio • e -Cedarpine Lane and llard Street -Second�x __ �� 1) I I \ t '\FK: MW: jg � Encl. cc: Steve Kueny, city Manager R.Dennis Delzeit, City EngineerMark Wessel, sr.
