CITY OF SHAKOPEE Is. a~
Memorandum CO~JSEr~T
TO: Mayor & City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Traffic Control Signage on Preserve Trail, from
Stagecoach Road to the East City Limit Line
DATE: June 7, 2005
INTRODUCTION:
This item is for Council authorization of the placement of traffic control regulatory signs
being stop signs at local street intersections with Preserve Trail, from Stagecoach Road to
the East City Limit Line with the City of Savage. Installation of any regulatory signs for
traffic or parking control must be approved by the City Council, per City Ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
The placement of regulatory traffic control signs is regulated by City Ordinance and the
City Council must authorize any changes as per Chapter 7, Section 7.03 of the City Code.
Staff has recently reviewed the sign age of street intersections on Preserve Trail in the
City of Shakopee and the City of Savage, from CSAH 18 to the City Limit Line of the
City of Savage. Preserve Trail does serve as a minor collector for residential properties
in the City of Shakopee as well as the City of Savage. In the City of Savage there are
stop signs at local streets intersecting with Preserve Trail, which is typically done on
streets intersecting with a minor collector. The City of Shakopee streets do not have stop
signs with the intersections on Preserve Trail. Staff is recommending that stop signs be
placed on these local streets that intersect with the minor collector being Preserve Trail.
Streets in which stop signs should be placed are as follows:
. Preserve Court
. Boiling Springs Lane
. Boiling Springs Circle
. Creek Ridge Court
By placing stop signs at these intersections, the signage of Preserve Trail would be
consistent in the City of Shakopee with the signage of the City of Savage on Preserve
Trail.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve a motion to install stop signs on local streets intersecting with Preserve
Trail, between Stagecoach Road and the Savage-Shakopee City Limit Line.
2. Do not approve a motion to install stop signs on these street intersections.
3. Table for additional information.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No.1, to install stop signs on local streets intersecting with
Preserve Trail, from Stagecoach Road to the Savage-Shakopee City Limit Line.
ACTION REOUESTED:
Staff recommends Alternative No.1, to install stop signs on local streets intersecting with
Preserve Trail, from Stagecoach Road to the Savage-Shakopee City Limit Line.
