-6- <br /> many property owners along 37th Avenue would not favor a semaphore <br /> • because of the noise generated by vehicles starting and stopping <br /> all night long. - Councilman Marks recalled that when he was Chairman <br /> of the Wilshire PTSA the safety of the children crossing 37th had <br /> been the primary concern when the first plans for rebuiding the road <br /> were considered. He said a decision had been made at that time to <br /> bus the children who lived north of 37th because that would be less <br /> expensive than to rely on a stop sign or a warning light or to <br /> construct a walkway over the road. <br /> Councilman Ranallo told Ms.. Getman he had been one of those who had <br /> petitioned Hennepin County to install a semaphore at the intersection <br /> of Lowry Avenue and Stinson Boulevard as a protection for the child- <br /> ren who crossed that intersection several days to and from school . <br /> At that time the County had indicated the traffic counts did not <br /> justify the semaphore but two years later when the new bank was in <br /> operation, the County had decided the traffic controls were <br /> necessary after all. The Councilman said the same might be true <br /> after the new roadway on 37th is in operation. Mayor Sundland said <br /> he would not oppose having another traffic count if the traffic <br /> increases with the new roadway . He thanked the two property . owners <br /> for their input to the consideration. <br /> , Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Ranallo to <br /> adopt Resolution 82-061 . <br /> RESOLUTION 82-061 <br /> A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE 37TH AVENUE <br /> RECO14STRUCTION RIGHT-OF-WAY PLANS <br /> Motion carried unanimously . <br /> The Manager reported the staff had selected an engineer to pull <br /> Well #3 to determine the levels and sources of water contamination <br /> at a cost not to exceed $3 ,600 . <br /> Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Letourneau <br /> to adopt Resolution 82-062 . <br /> RESOLUTION 82-062 <br /> A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND <br /> CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO AN - AGREE- <br /> MENT WITH BONESTROO AND ASSOCIATES <br /> FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES <br /> Motion carried unanimously. <br /> Motion by Councilman Ranallo and seconded by Councilman Letourneau <br /> to adjourn the meeting at 9 :00 P.M. <br /> Motion carried unanimously. <br /> • Respectfully submitted, <br /> ATTEST: <br /> Helen Crowe , Secretary <br /> City Clerk Mayor <br />
