MEMORANDUM

 

TO:                  Town Council

 

FROM:            Mayor Rosemary Waldorf

 

SUBJECT:       Stateside Drive Traffic Signal

 

DATE:             March 27, 2000

 

 

I continue to believe that we need a traffic signal at the intersection of Stateside Drive and NC 86, even though the State Department of Transportation has come to a different conclusion.  I request that the Council adopt the following resolution that would instruct the Manager to conduct our own analysis of this intersection, over a reasonable period to determine whether we can establish that the standards for installation of a traffic signal can be met.
