Council refers package of stop‑control ordinances to Legislative Matters after Transportation & Parking recommendation
Summary
The council referred several small traffic control ordinance changes—Bedford Terrace, Corticelli & Pine, Audubon/Mulberry/River and Blackberry/Prospect—to Legislative Matters for review following a Transportation & Parking Commission recommendation. Referral passed unanimously.
The City Council on Nov. 6 referred a package of stop‑control ordinance changes to the Legislative Matters committee after positive recommendations from the Transportation & Parking Commission. The measures would add stop signs at: Bedford Terrace (to tighten a wide angled intersection), one side of Corticelli at Pine (to complete a missing stop), Audubon/Mulberry/River (an always stop), and Blackberry Lane at Prospect Avenue (creating a city‑side three‑way stop to address speeding and nearby new housing access).
Councilors described outreach in affected wards and requested that public‑works and transportation staff provide the cost of the consultant work that evaluated intersections as part of the broader traffic engineering package. The referral to Legislative Matters passed unanimously.
