ar Sir:
Reference is made to the petition submitted to the City Council on October 3, 1963,
requesting angle parking and 2 hour parking i n the 200 and 300 Blocks on South Howes Street.
I would recommend that the request for angle parking be denied. Our traffic acci-
dent record indicates a much higher accident rate in angle parking areas than in parallel
parking areas. Also, we have a heavy vehicle traffic count on Howes Street in this area and
four lanes of roadway are needed during the peak hours to carry the traffic. Angle parking
at the curb would permit only two lanes of traffic.
I would see no objection to the 2 hour parking being initiated on a 90 day trial
basis. I would like to point out that the 2 hour parking would apply to the residents of
the area, as well as the other motorists. Also, the restriction in this area will tend to
move the parking problem a block further away from the business area and will create the same
problem for those residents.

City Manager Boos concurred with the City Engineer in his recommendations. Motio
was made by Councilwoman Quinn, seconded by Councilman Honstein, that the recommendation
of the City Engineer be approved, that parallel parking be denied and the 2 hour parking
be initiated on a 90 day trial basis. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Council'

The following report was presented and read at length:
City Engineer's Office
October 10, 1963
Mr. Robert F. Boos, City Manager
City of Fort Collins, Colorado
Dear Sir:
I would like to present a proposal for traffic control lights at the intersection
of Canyon, Oak and Howes.
A pole with mast arms would be installed at each of the four (4) corners. There
would be two signals facing each traffic movement, with one signal being attached to the
pole and the other signal on the mast arm. All red signals would use the 12 inch len se.
Howes Street would have a set time on the controller and would be tied in with
the traffic light at Mountain and Howes. Oak Street and Canyon Avenue would use the remain-
der of the time on the controller. The light facing Canyon Avenue would be red at all times
until actuated by the traffic. Oak and Canyon would share the time, when Canyon Actuates
the controller. At other times, Oak would use all of the time allocated to the side streets,
which would equal that of Howes Street.
I would estimate the cost of installation to be $80000.00. This installation
would meet tie requirements of the new National Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
for Streets and Highways.
Yours very truly,
/sl G. J. Weiss,
City Engineer.
The City Manager elaborated to some extent on this proposal. The proposal as
submitted would be lights on the four corners at an approximate cose of $8,000.00, the
lighting in the center would cost in the neighborhood of approximately $6,900.00, but
not be as effective control as the green arrow light and walk light. Motion was made
by Councilman Colwell, seconded by Councilwoman Quinn, that the report of the City Engineer
be accepted. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Johnson, Colwell,
(McMillan, Honstein and Councilwoman Quinn. Nayes: None. The President declared the
tion adopted. The City Manager advised the Council that it would be necessary to delay
this lighting until January of 1964 when funds for same might be available.
The Fort Collins Building Corporation, ch o are erecting the Rocky Mountain Bank
and Trust Company at Canyon and Oak Street, presented a plat requesting certain curb cuts,
one on Meldrum 18 feet to the parking lot, 8 feet on Canyon and on the south end of the
parking lot of 21 feet. After discussion, motion was made by Councilman McMillan, seconded
by Councilman Colwell, that the curb cuts be approved as requested. Roll was called result
ing as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Johnson, Colwell, McMillan, Honstein and Councilwoman
Quinn. Nayes: None. The President declared the motion adopted.
The City Manager advised the Council that he wished to attend the conference of
the International City Manager's Association Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. He
advised the Council that he had appointed Mr. R. S. Baker as his representative during his
absense. Motion was made by Councilman Honstein, seconded by Councilwoman Quinn, that the
request of the City Manager to attend the I.C.M.A. meeting in Denver, be approved. Roll was
