SUBJ:
Adopt the 2001 Minnesota Manual of Uniform Traffic Control
Devices (MMUTCD) as the Standard for All Traffic Control in the
City of Chanhassen
REQUESTED ACTION
Formally adopt the 2001 MMUTCD as the standard for all traffic control on
public streets in the city of Chanhassen.
DISCUSSION
On October 14, 2002, the City Council tabled this item to allow Councilmembers
with questions an opportunity to review those questions with the Engineering
Department.
Minnesota Statutes, Section 169.06, subd. 1 (2000) directs that the Minnesota
Department of Transportation adopt and prescribe uniform traffic control devices
for use of State Highways.
Pursuant to that end, the Commissioner of Transportation has adopted the 2001
MMUTCD.
The MMUTCD is required to be used on all public roadways within the state of
Minnesota.
