CALL TO ORDER
Chairman Timothy Schuster called the meeting to order at 4:00 p.m.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
Mr. Schuster moved to accept the November 11, 2014 minutes. Mr. Ross seconded the motion.
Motion carried (4-0).
NEW BUSINESS
1. A REQUEST FOR 2 HOUR PARKING ON COMMERCE STREET, WEST SIDE, FROM
CEAPE AVENUE TO PEARL AVENUE (CURRENT CONDITION: 30 MINUTE PARKING
AND LOADING ZONE)
Mr. Collins said the owners of City Center thought the loading zones were still there from Morton
Pharmacy. The owner of Caramel Crisp contacted him and said she requested the loading zone in front of
her store. She said she could live without the loading zone but requested parking be changed to 2 hours to
accommodate those who want to dine and shop.
Chanda Anderson, of 542 W. 16th Avenue, said that she has an occasional need for the loading zone. She
requested 2 hour parking.
Mr. Schuster moved to accept item 1 and Mr. Herman seconded the motion. Motion carried (5-0).
2. A REQUEST FOR NO PARKING ON EVAN STREET, EAST SIDE, FROM MALLARD
AVENUE TO 90 FEET SOUTH OF MALLARD AVENUE AND NO PARKING ON MALLARD
AVENUE, SOUTH SIDE FROM EVANS STREET TO 90 FEET EAST OF EVANS STREET
(CURRENT CONDITION: UNRESTRICTED PARKING)
Mr. Collins explained the Transit Advisory Board voted to move the east transfer point to Mallard Avenue
and Evans Street. This eliminates the necessity of crossing the street for passengers in order to get from
one bus to the other. Parking needs to be removed so buses can safely load and unload passengers.
Mr. Herman moved to accept item 2 and Mr. Ross seconded the motion. Motion carried (5-0).
There being no other business to come before the Traffic Review Advisory Board, and upon being duly
moved and seconded (Schuster, Herman), the meeting adjourned at 4:15 p.m. Motion carried (5-0).
