A special meeting of the Board of Public Works was convened at 9:35 =a.m.
on Wednesday, May 28, 1980, by President Patrick M. McMahon, with Mr.
McMahon, Mr. Richard L. Hill and Mr, Joseph E. Kernan present.
APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF BUSINESS ROUTE 31
Mr. McMahon explained that the purpose of the special meeting was to
obtain the Board's approval of a Memorandum of Agreement with the
Indiana State Highway Commission for the designation of a U,S, 31
Business Route on Michigan Street from Ireland Road to Cleveland Road
and then west to the By -Pass, Mr. McMahon stated that numerous meetings
had been held with Michigan officials in an effort to resolve their
objections to the designation into Michigan; however, agreement of the
designation on the part of Michigan officials had not been reached. He
pointed out that this was the reason the designation was going west from
Cleveland to the By -Pass rather than up through Michigan on U.S, 31,
He further stated that north of the By- -Pass, the designation would be
U.S. 33. Mr. McMahon informed the Board that the executed agreement
would not be submitted to the Highway Commission for consideration by
the AASHTO at its meeting in June. It is expected that approval will
be given sometime before the end of June.
Upon a motion made by Mr. McMahon, seconded by Mr. Kernan and carried,
the Memorandum of Agreement was approved and executed by the Board.
There being no further business to come before the Board, upon a motion
made by Mr. Kernan, seconded by Mr, McMahon and carried, the meeting
was adjourned at 9:45 a.m.
