r - <br />S E P 4 1995 1 F,� c. �� <br />BOOK <br />Patricia Hills, 154 S.W. Highland Drive, came before the <br />Board to speak of the traffic problems in Vero Highlands, which <br />have been in existence for a long time. She informed the Board <br />that she and her family live on "Deadman's Curve," and there is <br />no sign stating that there is a side street at the bottom of that <br />curve. She reported that County Traffic Engineer Michael Orr has <br />informed her that he cannot put in a four-way stop sign to help <br />alleviate this situation because you cannot control traffic with <br />a stop sign, but they have one in Riomar. Mrs. Hill spoke of the <br />many accidents on this curve; the fact that the road fills with <br />water and the cars slide; and the fact that the school bus will <br />not stop on Highlands Drive because it is too dangerous. Mrs. <br />Hills urged that something be done to alleviate this situation. <br />Wanda Ledger, resident of Vero Highlands, brought a plat of <br />the Highlands showing that there is only one exitway from the <br />Highlands and it has a very dangerous curve. She spoke at length <br />of the dangers of the curve, the speeding cars, the accidents <br />that occur whenever it rains, etc., and emphasized that this <br />roads, which is a speedway, passes the recreation area where all <br />the children go. She did not understand why the speed limit is <br />45 mph from Sunset Drive to 12th Avenue SW. <br />Administrator Wright noted that the speed limit is 30 mph <br />going east into the curve; then it goes down to 25 mph and then <br />back up to 45 mph. It is 45 mph going west. The Administrator <br />noted the Board has a copy of the list of accidents that have <br />occurred in the last 11 years. He reported that we have acquired <br />the necessary right-of-way to extend 20th Avenue into the <br />Highlands through Oslo Park and believed the cost of constructing <br />this second exit is estimated at about $300,000. As far as stop <br />signs or other markings, he could not comment on that at this <br />time, but noted that Attorney Vitunac says we can do this <br />legally. <br />Chairman Lyons confirmed that the City of Vero Beach does <br />58 <br />
