[OldNorth] Upcoming Meeting on May 22, 2003

[Andrew P. Wallace]

Old North Davis Neighborhood Association,

At 7:30pm on May 22, 2003, as part of our regular monthly meeting, Steve
Tracy and others from the Association will present a proposal regarding
potential changes to 5th Street between G and A Streets.

Currently, the City Council is looking for methods of improving traffic flow
on 5th Street.  A major problem is the blocking of traffic by people in the
left-hand turn lanes.  The City's proposed solution is an alternating
priority with left hand arrows.  So all North bound traffic on G would have
priority including those making right and left turns, then East bound on
5th, South bound on G, and then West bound on 5th.  (The exact order or
timing is not known)

Our Neighborhood Association is considering an innovative proposal which
will include:  single-lanes of motorist traffic, bike lanes, and left-hand
turn lanes.

At the end of this dicussion, the Association will vote on whether we stand
behind this proposal or not.  If so, we will submit the proposal to the City
in hopes that they will proceed with a formal traffic flow analysis.

Also, a number of changes have been made to the website.  In particular, we
have a complete list of current committees.  Are you interested in
participating?  Please see what interests you.

Best Regards,
Andy Wallace
