APPROVAL OF MINUTES: DECEMBER 10, 2002 - REGULAR MEETING
Councilman Taylor, refemng_to the memo Council received today regarding the Rosemead Place
Shopping Center Traffic Impact Study, asked if the ingress and egress will be closed at Driveway A as a
result of the Traffic Study recommendations. Councilman Taylor was concerned that this action may occur
prior to the signal warrant analysis for the proposed signal at Marshall and Hart.
Ken Rukavina, City Engineer, stated that staff is recommending that nothing be done to Driveway A
at this time. The shopping center manager indicated that several leaseholders have clauses that would void
their agreement if the ingress and egress were to change.
Councilman Taylor confirmed that the egress would not be closed, because that would result in 200
to 300 cars being forced to use Marshall Street or Rosemead Boulevard to exit the center.
Mr. Rukavina stated that the intention is not to close the egress, and that the site will be studied
further once the Center is fully occupied.
