Council Meeting Minutes for February 3, 2025 <br />Page 7 of 8 <br /> <br />The Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices has warrants that are evaluated to <br />make sure things are consistent across the state. The intersection did not meet the warrants for <br />the placement of stop signs. Erichson added that a stop sign would only be effective at that <br />particular area and would not affect speeds along the entire corridor. He said the results had been <br />shared with the property owners, and they had indicated that they were excited about the <br />prospect of a future trail and possible signal. <br /> <br />Weidt commented that installing the stop signs may create a bigger hazard at that location and <br />would not control speeds along the whole stretch of road. He said he did not recall any accidents <br />occurring there. <br /> <br />Erichson replied that staff did look at the crash history and noted that stop signs can create a false <br />sense of security. <br /> <br />City Administrator Bryan Bear informed the Council that the petitioner was aware that this item <br />was on the agenda for discussion this evening. There appeared to be no residents in attendance. <br /> <br />Krull made motion, Strub seconded, to approve RESOLUTION 2025-3 APPROVING <br />FINDINGS OF FACT DENYING THE PETITION FOR STOP SIGNS ADDED AT 125TH <br />STREET AT FENWAY AVENUE. <br /> <br />All Ayes.
