Some time back, the fire department addressed the council <br /> with their concerns with not being able to locate address numbers in emergency <br /> situations. They said the proposed numbering would also help the sheriff's department <br /> and ambulance personnel. As a short discussion, the council asked to have the proposed <br /> ordinance placed on the next council agenda. <br /> DISCUSSION OF CROSSWALK AT ST. LOUIS AND COLLEGE <br /> Mrs. Zach Mobley addressed the council requesting a cross walk be placed on St. <br /> Louis Street at the intersection of College Ave. The council looked at pictures of the <br /> intersection. Mayor Biard said that the Highway Department said they would not put a <br /> cross walk at the intersection but gave the City permission to do so. The Mayor said that <br /> in order to place a crosswalk, the sidewalks would have to be made handicapped <br /> accessible per ADA requirements. In order to do that, the stop light pole would have to <br /> be moved. After a lengthy discussion, the council asked for the request to be put on the <br /> next council agenda. <br /> MAYOR'S ANNOUNCEMENTS <br /> Mayor Biard said a settlement with FEMA has been made for the December 2002 <br /> ice storm.
