Council President Brossard: Thank you. Councilwoman Gilchrist, Chairwoman of the Streets and Transportation Committee, do you have a report this evening? Streets and Transportation Committee Councilwoman Gilchrist: I do, Mr. President. Thank you. However, I would like that Councilman Madden provide the Committee Report from April 22nd first, and then I will provide the report from this evening's Streets and Transportation Committee meeting, thank you. Council President Brossard: Sounds good, thank you. Councilman Madden: Thank you. The Streets and Transportation Committee met on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, at 7:11 p.m. in the Caucus Room. Present were Committee Members Madden and Hemann, Councilmen Limpert, Marrie, Scarl and Shymske. Also present were the Mayor, Directors of Law, Finance, Human Resources, Economic Development, Service, Recreation, Special Assistant to the Mayor, and guests. • On the agenda was Ordinance 2025-38, which is an Ordinance amending the traffic control file of the City of North Olmsted in order to install a no parking from here to corner sign on Limpert Lane and declaring an emergency. Councilman Scarl shared with Council that there have been complaints received from both motorists and residents on Limpert Lane that when a vehicle is parked in the street, and there are two or more vehicles looking to exit Limpert Lane onto Dover Center, there have nearly been accidents due to vehicles entering the street having to stop quickly due to the one lane being blocked by the parked vehicle. The new sign will allow more unobstructed lane for cars entering the street and hopefully avoid any accidents in the future. Councilman Madden made a motion to recommend the Ordinance to all of Council and it was seconded by Councilwoman Hemann. The Committee voted 2-0 to forward the Ordinance to Council, the meeting concluded at 7:16 p.m., and that concludes my report. Council President Brossard: Thank you. Councilwoman Gilchrist: The Streets and Transportation Committee met again on Tuesday, May 7, 2025 at 7:01 p.m. in the Caucus Room to discuss Resolution 2025-6.
