TO:
The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM:
Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
SUBJECT: Holliday Drive
Acting Public Works Director/City Engineer Gus Psihoyos recommends City Council
approval to designate Holliday Drive as a "through street." This designation gives
priority to traffic along that route and automatically provides authority for the installation
of stop signs on all side streets.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

MEMORANDUM
December 13, 2004
FROM:
Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager Q
Gus Psihoyos, Acting Public Works Director .JJ - .
TO:
SUBJECT: Holliday Drive
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memo is to present to the City Council a recommendation by
City staff to designate Holliday Drive as a "through street".
BACKGROUND
On July 19, 2004, the City Council approved a recommendation by City staff to
designate City streets built to a width of 36 feet or wider as "through streets".
Holliday Drive meets this criteria; and recently a new street, Payton Drive, has
been constructed connecting Holliday Drive to the Northwest Arterial.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the street width and the need to clarify right-of-way at this intersection,
I would recommend that Holliday Drive be designated as a "through street". The
enclosed ordinance provides for the designation of a "through street" for Holliday
Drive.
Designation of a particular route as a "through street" gives priority to traffic along
that route and automatically provides authority for the installation of stop signs on
all side streets. With this designation, individual stop sign ordinances are not
required at each of the intersection side streets.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached ordinance providing the
designation of Holliday Drive as a "through street".
Prepared by Bill Schlickman, Traffic Engineering
