Title
AUTHORIZE INSTALLATION OF REGULATORY SIGNS
Background
Installation of regulatory stop, yield and no parking signs requires authorization by City Council. The regulatory signs proposed meet warrants established in the Minnesota Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices. Intersections are reviewed for the type of regulatory sign to install. Stop signs are installed on street intersections with main through streets.
This intersection currently has a yield sign for eastbound traffic on 102nd Lane at President Drive. Staff is recommending that this be changed to a stop sign.
