Council Member Pettine stated he would like an advisory committee to bring people most closely impacted into the planning stages on this issue.

The residents were asking help and had taken a petition to the Traffic Safety Commission to slow the traffic down, but that was defeated. He stated he was appealing to Council to do something to slow the traffic down. There are 500 children a day in school buses at that intersection and a year was too long for something to be done at this intersection. Council Member Mamaux stated he did not feel a committee was necessary at this time, and that staff was capable. Council Member Kulchin stated a general meeting was necessary, inasmuch as there are many people who have not been heard. After the March election there should be a large general meeting, on a Saturday morning, with all the citizens and La Costa Ranch Company present. This should be done before any task force is formed. iIQ 7 \p 5 COUNCIL (% 2 MEMBERS % f Lewis Pettine Kulchin X Mamaux e 0 MINUTES February 17, 1987 Page 7 ~ ~ ~~ ~~___~ DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY MANAGER REPORTS: (continued) Mayor Lewis agreed that there should be a general meeting first.

Council determined not to appoint a citizen advisory committee at this time, and directed staff to set up a public meeting in March and to inform La Costa Ranch Company regarding their requested participation, and to advertise the meeting in the community. Mayor Lewis, in answer to Mr. Terrell's question, stated there are three entities involved in the intersection of Melrose Avenue and Rancho Santa Fe Road; the County, City of San Marcos and Carlsbad.
