After listening to public testimony and discussion of the issue, the City Council determined that a four-way stop installation at this location would be beneficial to the safety of the school -aged pedestrians. The signs would give a positive right-of-way assignment between the motorists and pedestrians. The Council made a motion on the issue and directed staff to proceed with the installation of the four-way stop control at the intersection of Wiley Canyon Road/La Glorita Circle -Evans Avenue. Staffwas also directed to notify motorists and residents regarding the proposed four-way stop control and scheduled sign installation. The notice signs for motorists were installed and letters to residents were mailed, informing them of the proposed four-way stop control at this location. As of this writing, staff has received one phone call from a resident notifying the City that he is not in favor of the four-way stop installation at this location. The Santa Clarita Municipal Code (S.C.M.C.) Section 12.20. 100 (Regulatory Signs) requires a resolution from the City Council to install the signs to effect the proposed four-way stop installation at the intersection of Wiley Canyon Road/La Glorita Circle -Evans Avenue.
