The following report was submitted: "This Bureau investigated the request to vacate an east /west alley, running west from the midblock of 200 S. Lafayette to the first north /south alley, parallel to and west of Lafayette. A field investigation revealed a number of parking lots located on Wayne and Jefferson Blvd. which do exit onto the east /west alley in that block. A number of these lots are designed with entry only off the street and forcing an exit only into the alleys. That portion of the vehicles and drivers exiting Lafayette would be inconvenienced by this vacation. It should be noted, however, that there are five (5) other alley exits to other streets from this block other than the one exit onto Lafayette. The field check further revealed the demolition of a building located in the southwestern quadrant of the alley intersection in question and reversion of this area to a parking lot. It is recommended that any alley vacation be subject to dedication of necessary right -of -way from this southwestern quadrant to allow for ease and mobility in a turning movement to and from the north /south alley behind the Gurley -Leep buildings. The design of this additional dedicated right -of -way should be handled through the Department of Public Works, Bureau of Design and Administration and the Bureau of Traffic and Lighting. s/ Ralph J. Wadzinski, Manager 0 131 REGULAR MEETING MAY 30, 1978 James Nafe, owner of the building at 320 W. Jefferson Blvd., was present and advised the Board that he has made a further review of problems he would encounter if this alley is vacated and it would appear they cannot be resolved. The fire hydrant closest to the rear of his building is in front of the Gurley -Leep building. Mr. Nafe said there was not time before the original hearing to get this information together but he has now contacted his insurance agent and has been told that, if the alley is vacated, it will have an adverse effect on his insurance. Mr. Nafe said this fact should be added to his objection made last week to the vacation petition and said he is opposed to the alley vacation. Mr. Brunner said, in light of Mr. Nafe's new objection to the vacation, he would move that this matter be continued for one week so that members can discuss this with the third member of the Board, Patrick McMahon, who is absent today. Mr. Brunner said he still favored the vacation but felt it would be in the best interests of all concerned to continue the matter until next Monday. Mr. Mullen seconded the motion and it carried. Mr. Mullen said the Board would discuss this matter with the Fire Department before next Monday. BUILDING MOVE APPROVED - 600 S. MICHIGAN TO 500 S. MICHIGAN John DeLee, Building Commissioner, submitted to the Board the application of Navarre Cadillac- Oldsmobile to move a building from the 600 block S. Michigan to the 500 block S. Michigan.

He plans to install trash barrels at each corner of the parking lot for litter control and the containers should be in place in three days. He said he feels the location has been greatly improved since his stand has. been in operation and efforts toward clean -up have been made.

"On May 23, 1978 this Bureau met with citizens representing the Madison School Parent & Home Association, the North Shore /Angela Triangle and Harter Heights reference the signal modernization at North Shore & Michigan. The basic concern expressed by the residents revolved around the %pedestrian signals and their actuated operation requiring the operation of a push button by the pedestrian. The operation of the actuated controller, the sequencing of the lights and traffic movements were explained to the group. It was noted that modernization was in conjunction with the rebuilding and widening of the Michigan Street bridge and the addition of a left turn lane for north and south bound traffic, which would require a separate traffic movement phase. The operation of a semi - actuated intersection with major street minor movements was explained and examples of existing installations given The pedestrian phasing of the controller and of the intersection was discussed. It was pointed out that for a pedestrian to activate the controller to produce a-walk light, a button located on one of the traffic poles and marked with a _sign would have to be pushed by the pedestrian. The greatest objection was that a grade school age child would be required to perform this action in order to cross the street with' a -walk it was felt that this might be confusing to the child. (It was pointed out that these installations are in effect at seven other locations in the City, affecting both parochial and public schools and involving grade school, middle school and high school children). The requests of the group were: 1. Keep the signals in the same operation as they are today. 2. Put the. signals on actuation only in the late evening hours. 3. Have the controller act as a fixed time controller giving breaks to North Shore whether vehicular traffic was present or not, and at the same time give pedestrians a walk signal whether there were pedestrians there or not. 4. Install optically programmed signals so as to eliminate the traffic signals from the view of the children, allowing them to see only the pedestrian signal and thereby eliminating any confusion in their mind. 5. Increase enforcement to reduce the speeding down the hill from Angela and increase enforcement reference the "No Turn on Red" signage at the intersection, which is now evidently disobeyed frequently. The results of the meeting were: 1. To adjust the traffic controller in a manner to assume an operation close to what is in existence today. 2. To maintain the operation of the pedestrian portion of the controller in a manner similar to today's operation through - out the remainder of the school year and the summer months. 3. Through Sgt. Hecklinski or a member delegated by the Police Department, have the children instructed about the operation of a push button in the fall school year of 1978. 1 137 REGULAR MEETING MAY 30, 1978 4. During 1978 to then proceed as to further determination of full actuation of the controller after instructions to the children have been given. In brief, a solid state actuated controller has in most cases the possibility of numerous phasing possibilities. Personnel, through this Bureau in cooperation with the manufacturer, will attempt to phase the signal in such a way to be the least confusing to the children of Madison School during the summer months. It is recommended that the above mentioned enforcement problems brought out by the citizens be referred to the Chief of Police for necessary enforcement. s/ Ralph J.
