• Will confirm to Mrs. Morrissey.
3. Correspondence-Ms. Baylor re: 1-95 Signs. - This matter was brought to the attention of the
Traffic Committee to advise. Matter is resolved.
New Business:
1 . Truck Traffic on Harmon Drive. The Traffic Committee reviewed this matter and its
implications. Truck restriction will improve safety at Weaver and Harmon because it is difficult for
the trucks to negotiate the turn at the intersection. Recommendation - Defer the matter to
November. Attempt to survey the number and size of the trucks using Harmon drive.
2. Correspondence- Paulene Greeman & Peter Brush re: Traffic& Parking on Chester Place &
Moran Place. The Traffic Committee focused on two issues: Safe access to the streets and
available parking to the residents. The Traffic Committee decided to defer the matter to November.
The Town Administrator will have the Fire Chief inspect the street. E-mail residents to advise them
of action and encourage them to attend the next meeting.
3. Traffic Calming Guidelines. The Traffic Committee was generally in favor of the manual. The
Traffic Committee will review the manual and comment upon it. Have the staff review and
comment; find out if New Rochelle has any speed bumps.
