DESCRIPTION: This is the second reading of a proposed ordinance
that was introduced at the June 10, 1991, City Council meeting. It has come
to Staff's attention that the No-U-Turn signs that are installed at the median
break for the driveway into the Orchard Supply parking lot (for westbound
traffic) and for the driveway into the Mervyn's parking lot (for eastbound
traffic) are not included in the Traffic Code. These No-U-Turn signs were
installed several years ago as a safety measure. Traffic is generally too
heavy to allow vehicles to safely negotiate a U-turn at this unsignalized
two-way ].eft turn break in the median.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, deliberate,
waive the reading and ADOPT the ordinance.
