Commissioner Bowman believed the situation is bad there now <br />becalse there is no left-hand turn arrow for the stacking lane on <br />I <br />SR -60'. wanting to turn north onto Kings Highway and traffic is <br />bloc'ing traffic in the left lane of eastbound SR -60. A serious <br />asci ent occurred there just the other day. <br />;Director Davis explained that the traffic volumes did not <br />meet the requirements for a left-hand turn arrow, but felt that <br />traffic counts would be sufficient once the Burger King opens. <br />He advised that it is not an arbitrary decision; it is a decision <br />based on sound traffic engineering. <br />Commissioner Eggert asked if it made any difference if there <br />are accidents occurring there, and Director Davis assured here <br />that accident history is a major consideration. <br />Chairman Scurlock felt it was unfortunate that accidents <br />have to happen before justification is made to install a light. <br />ommissioner Bowman believed the residents in Rivera Estates <br />Subdivision wish to see the 10 -acre buffer zoned to Professional <br />Office District. She asked which land use generates the least <br />traffic. <br />Director Davis advised that Professional Office is less than <br />Commercial, but it depends on the type of commercial. Multiple <br />Family would attract less than Professional Office and <br />Commercial, but again, it depends on the type of development and <br />the densities. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was <br />voted on and carried unanimously (4-0). <br />ABOVE ACTION WILL BE INCLUDED IN AN ORDINANCE ADOPTED WHEN ALL <br />TODAY'S COMP. PLAN AMENDMENT APPLICATIONS ARE DEALT WITH. <br />31 <br />SEP 8 19187 BOOK 69 FACE2.�2 <br />
