After discussion, it was agreed that the City Planners will meet with council and the administration to plan a joint planning venture. Council will interview council's candidate and the administration's candidate on February 8th. 2) President Saringer is in receipt of several communications with respect to a severe safety problem at the intersection of Country Club and Great Northern Boulevard. Since additional signalization for this area will cast approximately $5,800, it was decided to wait for the Mayor's appropriation ordinance to see if the money could be found to finance this project. Mayor Petrigac reported that she also has received letters on this intersection; has approached Mr. Biskind to see if he could chip in funds for a left signal. This is a state route and possibly ODOT should be the one to take care of the signalization. Mr. Wilamosky noted that this particular signalization was part of the scope of the I480 intersection so perhaps we could get some assistance from the state. He has also received communications with respect to the safety of motorists rela- tive to traffic flow within the shopping center property itself. I
