Common Council Worksheet~~Wednesday, November 4, 2009
Pursuant to Rule 17 of the Common Council, all resolutions requesting the repair, replacement or maintenance of pavement, sidewalks, traffic signals, signage, playground equipment, or other similar requests, shall be placed on a separate worksheet and voted on collectively at the next formal session, and, if passed, referred to the respective departments for their response back to sponsors.
1.Sponsor: Councilors Rosemary Miller and Sal DiDomenico-At the forum (Immaculate Conception) on Tuesday, October 27th, it was brought to our attention that Coburn Terrace has a flooding problem when it rains. Please send water/sewer department down to clean out area culverts; and report back to Sponsors when work completed; and also that the City Engineer investigates on a rainy day after open drains cleaned out, and report back findings of any flooding on Coburn Terrace to Sponsors.
Referred to: City Services Director and Operations Manager, Water/Sewer Division, City Engineer and Mayor.
2. Sponsor: Councilor Rosemary Miller-There is a very serious and potentially dangerous situation created by the repaving of the sidewalk at 696 Broadway (Angelina’s Subs). When you exit the store, the down slope is too sharp and throws you off balance. It continues to the corner where the wheelchair/handicap cut is. Someone in a wheelchair would be propelled too fast and too sharp for safety issues. Also, the winter is approaching; there is additional concern about snow/icing at the location. Not only is this sharp slope/drop dangerous, but also could potentially put the city at risk for legal action.
Referred to: Mayor, City Engineer, and Community Development and City Services Director.
3. Sponsor: Councilor Sal DiDomenico-To change Spruce Street, from Jefferson to Dartmouth Street, to a one-way on school days from 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. to help alleviate traffic congestion.
Referred to: Traffic Commission
4. Sponsor: Councilor Sal DiDomenico-To place a “No Left Turn on School Days from 7:30am to 2:30pm”” sign on Dartmouth Street at the intersection of Spruce Street to help alleviate traffic congestion.
Referred to: Traffic Commission
5. Sponsor: Councilor Sal DiDomenico-To place a “No Right Turn on School Days from 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.” Sign on Clarence Street, at the intersection of Clarence Street to help alleviate traffic congestion.
Referred to: Traffic Commission |
