On motion of Councilman Blake, seconded by Councilman Graham, the request was approved. Motion carried. 24o Traffic Committee report of November 3, 1969. 69- 11 -1T. The Chamber of Commerce has written to the City requesting that two or three 22-- minute green parking meter spaces be established in front of the new chamber office at 1039 Chorro Street. The purpose of these spaces which would in part replace portions of the existing yellow and red zones would be to accomodate out -of -town visitors making inquiries at the chamber office. The traffic commit- tee feels that two such spaces:.thouid be approved, eliminating one space from the yellow loading zone and one space from the red zone. We also feel that the Chamber should be allocaed to place some type of sign in connection with the meters reading, °Chamber visitor parking, please" or words to that effect. 69- 11-2T. The owner of the TV repair shop which is about ready to occupy the premises at 890 Mill Street has requested that the two yellow spaces in front of the store be converted to one 12- minute green space. We feel that this would be appropriate and so recommend, 69- 11 -3T. The traffic committee has noted a traffic hazard at Santa Rosa Street where Street intersects. Since there are no stop signs on Leff, motorists on Leff tend to shoot across Santa Rosa, especially because of the rise west of Santa Rosa. The traffic committee therefore recommends that stop signs be in- stalled on Leff stoping traffic in both directions at Santa Rosa. 69- 11 -4T. With the development of the trailer park at Prado Road and South Higuera, the traffic committee feels that the newly developed portion of Prado Road east of Higuera should have a stop sign to match the present sign west of Higuera. 69-11 -5T. The engineering department has called a potential hazard to the attention of the traffic committee west of the Jordan- Thrifty complex on Foothill Boulevard. Since there is plentiful off - street parking in the area and since we feel that it would be helpful from a traffic standpoint, we recom- mend that forty feet of red zone be established to the west of the last driveway ramp in the shopping center. On motion of Councilman Blake, seconded by Councilman Miller, the following resolution was introduced. Resolution No. 9 , a resolution rescinding red and yellow zones on Chorro Street and on Mill Street; establishing green zones on Chorro Street and Mill Street and a red zone on Foothill Boulevard; estab- lishing stop signs on Leff Street and on Prado Road. Passed and adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Emmons Blake, Myron Graham, Arthur F. Spring, Donald Q. Miller, Kenneth E. Schwartz NOES: None ABSWT: None 25.
