Discussion of Felton Street - One -Way Traffic Into K Mart Parkins Lot
There was a discussion of the problem of traffic on Felton Street generated
by the access to K- Mart's parking lot. Residents of Graywood Addition had requested
that the access be eliminated in order to reduce traffic on Felton Street. It was
pointed out that the K -Mart management has agreed to build two access driveways
off Memorial Drive to serve their parking area. Councilman Fanestiel moved that
the Traffic Ordinance be amended to make a one -way traffic section of that portion
of Felton Street between Williams Street and the entrance to K -Mart parking lot.
Traffic is to move in a northerly direction only, with "One -Way" signs as required;
' leaving the barrier on K- Mart's lot and installing "Do not Enter" signs to prevent
fI traffic from entering Felton Street in a southerly direction from K- Mart's parking
lot. Councilman Donnelly seconded the motion. The vote follows:
Ayes: Councilmen Braswell, Donnelly, Fanestiel and Massey.
Mayor Cravey
Nays: None
In connection with this change it was requested that a "Stop' sign be installed
on the north side of Williams Street to stop traffic entering Felton Street.
Councilman Fanestiel requested that a stop strip be painted on Main Street
to prevent Alain Street traffic from blocking off Hines Avenue traffic when stopping
for the traffic signal at the intersection of North Main and Williams Street.
The Council also discussed with County Commissioner Ramsey several items relat-
ins to streets, drainage and library service.
The motion was made and seconded that the meeting adjourn. The ayes were un-
animous and the Mayor declared the meeting adjourned.
