21 <br /> <br /> Mr. Gerald Barnes, 500 South 1 st Street, asked that a pedestrian crossing be marked <br />across Monticello Road near Crescent Halls. Mr. Barnes asked if it would be possible to add <br />a streetlight at that location. <br /> <br /> Ms. Judith Muetler, Director of Public Works, explained that high intensity pedestrian <br />crossing signs and a lowering of the speed limit on Monticello Road will be installed as soon <br />as the weather permits. Ms. Mueller said that the area would not meet the minimum <br />standards for installation of a streetlight. Ms. Mueller said that staff could provide the cost <br />for a streetlight if requested by Council, but noted that there is no money in the budget for <br />such an expense. <br /> <br />CONSENT AGENDA <br /> <br /> On motion by Mr. Vandever, seconded by Ms. Slaughter, Council unanimously <br />approved the following consent agenda items: <br /> a.
