Chairman Eggert asked if the church was talking about this access just for church services or for social events also. Attorney Gore advised that it would be for social events as well, and Chairman Eggert felt that opens it up quite a bit as there is something going on at the church quite often. Attorney Gore believed that access to U.S.I would be sufficient for most social events; what he meant is something like the Octoberfest. Father LeSage advised that they would be asking for access for Saturday afternoons and Sundays and possibly a few Holy days throughout the year. Chairman Eggert wanted it made clear that it would not be needed for the guilds, or anything like that, and that was confirmed. Jean Holt, 13425 81st Avenue, on the corner of 134th St., had 3 impacts she felt would result. (1) She felt this would eventually require a light on Roseland Drive; (2) the traffic would not just impact 134th Street, but would spread to the side roads if the traffic backs up; and (3) this is just taking the impact from U.S.I and putting it on 134th Street and Roseland Road. Commissioner Scurlock asked Director Davis if we looked at having deceleration and acceleration lanes and other traffic modifications when we looked at the particular problem with this exit on U.S.I. Director Davis confirmed that we did, and the church recently on their own incentive constructed improvements on U.S.I. to facilitate ingress and egress to the property. The Sebastian Police Department has been controlling the traffic on Sunday mornings and certain times of the week, but they have indicated they cannot continue to do that. In regard to signalization, Director Davir; did not believe the DOT would approve a signal for that location. He felt it would be a safer situation for northbound traffic to use the signal at Roseland 32 _ r
