MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 28, 1986 <br />BIG ISLAND <br />Mayor Butler inquired regarding the status of the fish <br />houses stored on Big Island which were to be removed by <br />May 15, 1986. <br />City Administrator Bernhardson stated that citations <br />have been issued for prosecution. Staff will report <br />back on the status of prosecution at the August 11, 1986 <br />Council meeting. <br />CABLE TV REPORT* <br />It was moved by Councilmember Adams, seconded by Mayor <br />Butler, to accept the Minutes of the June 17, 1986 <br />Meeting and the Agenda for the July 22, 1986 Meeting. <br />Motion, Ayes 3, Nays 0. <br />CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT: <br />WEST FERNDALE /COUNTY ROAD 15 INTERSECTION <br />City Administrator Bernhardson reported that following <br />the Council's decision to close the western leg of West <br />Ferndale, the City has received numerous comments <br />indicating that closing off of the western leg would <br />cause a significant problem for people coming out of <br />Woodhill, particularly during rush hours and in slippery <br />conditions. During those times, persons who desire to <br />head east bound from Woodhill will go westbound on <br />County Road 15, turn left into the west leg of West <br />Ferndale and then come back out on the east leg. In <br />light of this new information, staff recommends another <br />option that of reducing the width of the West Ferndale <br />Road intersection by placing guard rail posts at the <br />west side of the radius thereby forcing a speed <br />reduction to complete the turn. <br />Councilmember Grabek stated that he felt more <br />comfortable with this action rather than closing the <br />road. <br />Henry & Marilyn Kingman, 1185 West Ferndale, were <br />present for this matter expressing concerns hoping this <br />would solve the problems. <br />It was moved by Councilmember Grabek, seconded by <br />Councilmember Adams, to rescind the action of June 23, <br />1986 regarding closing of West Ferndale adn that the <br />recommendation to narrow up the radius be the <br />alternative implemented.
