CASE
# DATE AREA OF
CONCERN SUMMARY OF CONCERN TSC COMMENTS &
RECOMMENDATIONS
216 5/19/22
Pipewood
Curve
References Case #197 in concern. Would like two 20 MPH speed limit signs
and 'Children at Play' signs installed at the beginning of Pipewood Curve
and at the intersection of Pipewood Curve and Pipewood Circle. Also
update the old 'Winter Parking' signage. Asking for City to implement by
June 15, 2022.
No improvements
warranted at this time, this
appears to be a
neighborhood speeding
issue due to the
surrounding road network
and an educational
campaign will be conducted
for the neighborhood as
well as the speed trailer
deployed. After speed
trailer is removed a speed
study will be conducted for
further follow-up.
"Children at Play" signage
request is guided by
speciality warning signage
practice and are not
warranted. New "Winter
Parking" signs will also be
installed to replace faded
ones.

218 6/16/22
Pleasant View
Road (near

driveways for next mile.
Additional signage not

warning sign guidance from
MUTCD.

114 6/22/22
Galpin Blvd &
Majestic Way
Concerns about safety of intersection as family and kids in the
neighborhood utilize for crossing. Would like in road "yield to ped"
bollards in road, or some interim improvement for summer.
In an effort to help
advocate the position
which TSC generall agrees
with regarding temporary
in-street bollards until the
Galpin Blvd improvement
project occurs, an e-mail
was sent to the County
regarding the request.
