Title
Discussion on soft flash intersections
Body
SUMMARY: Council member Wyatt researched intersections throughout the City. The Street Superintendent, Kevin Music, also reviewed and suggested soft flash intersections at 15 different locations. One light would be a flashing red light which would mean come to a complete stop, then proceed and the other would be a flashing yellow light which means proceed with caution. He suggested the soft flashing to occur from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. This would need to be announced for public awareness about the lights, as well as educating the public about the meaning of flashing red lights and flashing yellow lights. Mr. Music explained that he chose the 15 intersections and that they can be adjusted as needed. The City Council approved the soft flash intersections at 15 intersections from 12 p.m. to 5 a.m. at its regular meeting on October 9, 2018 and Council member Harris asked to be updated on the progress of the implementation at the November work session.
