1. Call to Order

2. Unfinished Business

3. New Business

 A request to install no parking signs at the dead-end portion of Larchwood Road to allow
 vehicles room to turn around.

 Harper Gardner had a constituent reach out on Larchwood. She is the last address on
 Larchwood. Her husband is disabled and they rely on the KRT transportation vans for
 everything. However, when the residents on Bridge Road access the back the KRT vans
 cannot turn around and will not go up Larchmont. This results in the wife having to wheel
 her husband down the road and the paving is not great. They asked if the city could assist
 them in this matter.

 Becky stated that this matter does not go to any other committee once they pass it.

 MOTION AND VOTE: Becky Ceperley made a motion that a “No Parking” sign be installed at
 the dead-end portion of Larchwood Road to allow vehicles the room needed to turn around.
 The motion was seconded by Bobby Haas and passed by a unanimous vote of 5-0.
