Regular Council Meeting . 9/20/93 Page Eleven Chief Mohr said one of the concerns he had-the camera system is a key concern. A key factor will be anticipating where problems are going to be. Mr. Schiavoni said that is why they are stressing the Incident Management Program. Chief Mohr asked if monies would be available to assist us. Mr. Schiavoni said they will finance the Incident Management Program. Mrs. Leppla asked if they looked at any other plan--such as just adding one lane. Mr. Schiavoni said simply adding a fourth lane would not facilitate the amount of iraffic projected 20 years from now. Mr. Schiavoni said the purpose of the express lanes is to take through traffic through the area. The reason for the number of lanes is based on 20-year designs (required by O.D.O.T.) Since the amount of traffic will be spread over 5lanes, he feels it will make the facility safer. He described the project: there will be a 30' grass median for the same direction, there will be a 4' concrete barrier between opposing traffic. They met all the air quality requirements mandated by law. IVoise was an issue--that is what mandated the noise walls to be consiructed. Mayor Rinker asked about drainage. Mr. Schiavoni said the drainage concerns have been addressed. Mr. Hovancsek explained the location of the detention facility. Mrs. Cinco asked when they need the resolutions passed by. Mr. Schiavoni said they have two projects--one they want to obligate Federal dollars October 1st. The other project--October 15. Chief Mohx said a lot of time false information is given to us regarding the location of an accident. Is there any way that information could come directly to us? Mr. Schiavoni said that would be addressed as part of the incident management concerns. That will be handled as a separate project. Mrs. Cinco asked for a motion to amend the agenda to include Ordinance No. 93-40.
