City manager report: signals, speed bumps and flooding
No action
The Wasatch Front Regional Council looks favorably on a $1.1 million signal optimization application covering 19 intersections. Rebuilding brick-bordered speed bumps in overlay areas would cost about $10,000 each; the plan is to remove them and possibly rebuild later. A concrete barrier supplier will provide barriers at no cost except delivery. Big Cottonwood Creek flowed at 200 to 250 cubic feet per second with a 50% chance of reaching 800. No votes were taken.
