THE ADMINISTRATOR.AGREED THEY WILL NEED SOMETHING THERE UNTIL BARBER AVENUE IS DEVELOPED. COMMISSIONER LOY NOTED THAT WE CAN GET THE TRAFFIC STUDY AND THE PERMIT FOR THE LIGHT WITH THE UNDERSTANDING IT WILL BE MOVED TO BARBER AVENUE, BUT BELIEVE THE HOSPITAL SHOULD BE MADE FULLY AWARE ,THAT THE ONLY REASON WE ARE DOING THIS IS TO SERVE THE PUBLIC AS IT .IS NOT OUR USUAL POLICY. CHAIRMAN WODTKE INSTRUCTED THE ADMINISTRATOR TO START THE PROCEDURE TO GET THE APPROVAL NECESSARY FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT AT THE PRESENT HOSPITAL ENTRANCE AT U.S. I, AND STATED THAT HE AND THE AD- MINISTRATOR WILL MEET WITH HOSPITAL OFFICIALS TO DISCUSS THIS MATTER. 89 71977 ,A
