2. ROLL CALL: MERRILL, BASTIAN, SEDLACEK, GUERBER. All present.
A quorum is present.
ACHD COMMISSIONERS: Present: Susan Eastlake, Sherry Huber, Dave Bivens, Judy
Peavey-Den'. Absent: Marlyss Meyer.
3. DISCUSSION ITEMS:
A. Speed controls on Eagle Hills Way.
Mayor introduces the issue.
Sedlacek: The neighbors are concerned about speeding. There are more younger
children in the neighborhoods now than in the past. The neighbors have signed a Petition
that should now be at ACHD. I'm getting conflicting information about a speed bump.
Terry Little: We have backed off on collector streets, the Fire Departments and Sheriffs
Departments have opposed speed bumps.
Mark: ACHD has met with some of the residents. One of the options is striping a center
line and parking stripes. It doesn't warrant a speed bump, it would go against our policy.
I have talked to the Fire Department and they oppose a speed bump. Discussion on
different methods to slow traffic down on residential streets. General discussion on the
issue. The striping will be completed when the weather permits.
Terry Little discusses the adoption of new street standards for a 29' street with parking on
one side of the street.
B. Ballantyne/State Street: Official position of the ACHD Commissioners, in a written
document.
Mayor introduces the issue.
Sedlacek: The City of Eagle has sent a letter to ITD and ITD responded and
acknowledged that there were problems but would not appropriate any funds.
Peavey-Deft: It is my opinion that we should find a temporary fix that doesn't cost a lot
of money and that we could get ITD to reimburse us the cost for a permanent fix.
General discussion.
Huber: November 8th we sent a letter and item #4 talks about this issue. I don't believe
our position has changed. General discussion.
Sedlacek: I might have a conflict here as my parent's have property that will be affected
and my son was in an accident at the Intersection of State and Highway 44 today.
Discussion on the issue and on ACHD options.
ACHD feels that Option 8B would be the proper place to signalize and Option 10 would
be a temporary fix. General discussion.
Discussion on Option 8A and 8B. Discussion on Option #3 and #7 that were
recommended by the Engineering Company and the City.
Discussion on the City of Eagle and ACHD working with the Developer to realign the
intersection.
Discussion on a signal at Ballantyne.
Peavey-Derr: I would like to see a sub-committee formed consisting of ACHD, the City
of Eagle, ITD and the Developer so we could come to a decision on this issue. General
discussion. This is Dave's District so he could lead ACHD and Guerber is the liaison for
the City of Eagle. ACHD has committed funds for Option 10.
Judy Peavey-Den' leaves the meeting.
A1 Cordial discusses Stierman and the parking along Stierman. Between Monarch and
Longwood there should be no parking on the right side of the street. General discussion.
Merrill moves to recommend to ACItD that the parking on the right side of
Stierman between Monarch and Longwood be eliminated. Seconded by Bastian.
