Most recently, the City installed rumble stripe on all four approaches to this intersection. Recently, however, another accident occurred at this intersection. Based on the Police reconstruction report, it appears that the vehicle traveling on Davie failed to atop. The only additional step we can suggest for this intersection 1e the Installation of a four-way flasher at the intersection with amber flash of Ohio and red on Davie. This was discussed with the Municipal Operations Committee which has recommended we proceed. To do so, a transfer of $5,000 from contingency will be required. While we believe this is an appropriate next step, please be advised that we do not believe it will completely solve the problem given that over half of the recent accidents have occurred after traffic has stopped on Davis. Nevertheless, we believe we should proceed. R Manger's Casements; I recommend approval.
