Attending: All
Also Attending: Town Administrator Hill, Public Works
Director Widmer, Bob Joseph, Clerk O'Connor
FACILITY ACCESSIBILITY STUDY:
The Committee recommends extending the review period of the
Facility Accessibility Study to the next regularly scheduled
Public Works Committee Meeting.
PARKS SUPERINTENDENT and MECHANIC:
Director Widmer requested permission to advertise the new po-
sitions of Parks Superintendent and Mechanic; the positions would
not be filled before the first of the year. The Committee
recommends Public Works Director be authorized to advertise the
positions of Parks Superintendent and Mechanic.
ORDINANCE #21-77 - CONTROL OF DOGS:
Public Works Director Widmer informed the Committee that the
existing Ordinance #21.77, Section 7.12.040 "Positive control by
owner" dealing with . . permitting a dog to be off or away
from the premises of its owner, custodian, or possessor, unless
it is under the direct and effective control of its owner,
custodian, or possessor" is very vague and difficult to enforce.
Discussion followed with the Committee recommending this matter
be referred to the Public Safety Committee.
REVIEW OF ROCKWELL STREET, PARKING, CIRCULATION IMPROVEMENTS:
Mr. Bob Joseph, Urban Renewal Authority, presented a traffic plan
of Rockwell Street for review by the Committee. The plan
indicates one-way traffic flow on Rockwell Street eastbound from
Moraine Avenue to the intersection of West Riverside Drive,
thence two-way traffic on Rockwell Street from West Riverside to
East Riverside; one-way traffic southbound on West Riverside from
Rockwell to Ivy; and restriping one bay of the Park Center Mall
parking lot. Traffic on all other streets would remain as they
currently exist. Following discussion, the Committee recommends
to the Town Board the traffic plan be approved and that the Urban
Renewal Authority consider additional public review.
REPORTS:
The Crags Drive Bridge Project is now underway; there is a
possibility that inclement weather will delay completion of the
project until spring.
Director Widmer briefed the Committee on the incident involving
the removal of gasoline tanks located at Riverfront Park.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
