Recommendation
Public Works staff is requesting to withdraw this item.
At the August 17, 2015 Building & Grounds meeting, this item was brought forward to approve converting Carroll Street from a one way street to a two way street. The Committee requested the item to be put on hold and to review how the temporary two-way operation of Carroll Street works out for Les Paul middle School. On August 17, school was not yet in session.
In September, Public works staff observed traffic, school students and bus activity and concluded, along with the School principal, that having Carroll Street as a two way street would not work for Les Paul school and requested to not have it permanently converted to a two way street. Staff informed B&G Committee Chairman Payne of the decision and he agreed and told staff to present the item at the next B&G meeting to have it formally withdrawn from consideration. To that end, this item is being presented at the October 19, 2015 B&G meeting to have it formally withdrawn.
