8 pedestrian crossings on North 5th Street particularly at 5th and Main. He said he would like to refer the inquiry to
9 the Traffic Department for a report back in two weeks.
10
11 Mr.Willis said the Board should give consideration to a three way stop and Captain Williams agreed that would be
12 a way to break the traffic for pedestrian crossing.

15 Department had resisted stopping traffic there in the past, but he was not certain he agreed with that.
16
17 Captain Williams said the in the past it had been too costly to install a light. He said there has also been discussion
18 about closing Main Street from 3rd to 5th and routing the traffic around the area, which he through would be a
19 super traffic pattern.

22 4th Street from Main.
