Request by Mr. Parrish, Division 5 Engineer, that an Ordinance; 4 be passed restricting parking on the shoulder of highway 54 South was discussed. It seems that the area recently annexed is faced I with the problem of heavy trucks parking on the shoulder. This is I{ certainly a traffic hazard and has caused ruts and the defacing of the Boulder. The Commission recommends that an Ordinance be passed prohibiting parking on the right side of the Highway. Signs; will be erected by the State Highway Department with a copy of f Ordinance to same. f1 Request made to establish an emergency loading zone in front 2. ' of the Capitol Avenue Rest Home was recommended. The usual pro- !' visions for a loading zone should prevail. ' 3. Request for a one way street on Adams between State Street and ,! Capital Avenue was referred to the Traffic Division of the Police Department for study. To be reported back at the next meeting. 4. Request by Mr. McBride, manager of Kroger Store , relative to whether traffic could be enforced in the parking lot at the Plaza, - by the City Police Department. This is to be referred to the City Attorney for opinion, inasmuch as this is private property there is doubt as to whether this is possible. 1 5. Recommended that No Parking be established on the East side of the 400 block of Argonne Street, inasmuch as this street does not provide adequate space for maneuvering of an automobile when !; parking is allowed on both sides of the street. I , I 277 I I J6. Mrs. Buchanan, 216 E. McCarty, requests that No. Parkinp be established at the entrance of an' alley between Miller and McCarty bff Monroe.
