ITEM I

Re: Speed Bump in Lane Behind Star Furniture

The Committee had previously considered and rejected
a request for removal of the speed bunps from the lane directly
behind the old Star Furniture Building. This item was brought

The Committee reconsidered the argument and also the
fact that speed bumps in a commercial lane cause problems with
vehicles carrying fragile goods. However, the Committee does
not recommend the removal of the speed bump because of the
across the lane.

ITEM II

Re: Removal of No Parking Signs from the 1600 Block Langan Avenue

At the present time, the north Side of the 1600 Block
Langan Avenue is restricted for Parking between 8:00 a.m. and
5:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday. This restriction was apparently
put in place because of the difficulty that large vehicles haa
in turning out of driveways from the industrial properties.

There is a severe shortage of parking available along
this street and in talking with the industries, there is a strong
feeling that the parking should be allowed with the exception of
a short length of the Street between driveways on 1603 Langan.
Access to the above address would be affected if parking were
allowed in that section, However, the remainder of Langan Avenue

could have parking permitted without any detrimental affeot to
the industries.
