In attendance were committee members Miller, McKay and Gareau; Councilmen O'Grady and Limpert; Safety Director Jenkins, Service Director Bohlmann. Ordinance 2000-15 is an ordinance amending the Traffic Control File of the City of North Olmsted to provide for the installation of a "No Turn on Red" sign with a supplementary legend "7 a. m. to 8 p.m." at the intersection of Mill Road and Dover Center Road for traffic traveling in an easterly direction on Mill Road and turning south onto Dover Center Road and declaring an emergency as amended.
