Hi, Luke!
No rush, but can you put the stop at San Carlos and Florence in the queue for review?
Happily, we have lots of bikes going up and down San Carlos, but the downhill gets pretty
speedy and we are getting a lot of cars rolling through the stop. Maybe flags on the stop
sign, or a bigger stop sign/red post, or ‘cross traffic does not stop’? We mentioned it to
SLOPD (Christine copied here) at our Neighborhood Night Out and they will look into
enforcement; maybe that will do the trick, but I wanted to put it on your radar.
Thanks!

Thanks for sharing. No problem, I’ll have our staff investigate and see if some measures
are needed to improve the visibility of the sign. Adding the “CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT
STOP” plaque should be no problem.

Good Afternoon Luke,
Nora and I went out to Florence and San Carlos this morning to inspect the visibility of the
STOP sign and conduct a sight distance study. While no veggie trimming or vegetation
abatement is needed, there is a need for sight distance improvements along San Carlos
Drive. The work order for the sight distance improvements and the installation of a ‘Cross
Traffic Does Not Stop’ sign can be found attached to this email. Let us know if you have
any questions or comments. Thanks!

Good Morning Luke,
The sight distance measurement was taken at the “exception line” 6’ ahead of the limit line.
Let me know if you need any additional information!

Thanks Sergio. Can you confirm if the sight distance measurement was taken behind the
limit line or the “exception line” 6’ ahead of the limit line?

Sorry for the delay on this one, see attached.
Please also send a brief notice to the fronting properties so they know this is coming. Note
that we received safety concerns about sight distance and failure to yield at this intersection
and our investigation confirms that we need to pull back parking at the corners to provide a
safe line of sight.
Thanks,
