After review, listening to testimony, and discussing the issue with various people, he said he had decided to vote for approval of the project. Councilman Williams noted his intent to abstain from voting because of his interest . in Citizen's Bank and the position taken by the Bank at this meeting. Councilman Bradley asked if staff had given any thought to installation of sidewalk on only one side of the street, whether pedestrian traffic warranted installation on both sides. Traffic Engineer answered that it was discussed with people in the staff meetings in the area and debated "quite a bit." However, conclusion was that installa- tion on one side only would not be "good engineering" based on what is there now. Because of changing land use and developments going in on the east side of the street plus anticipated increase in development, installation on both sides was felt justified. Even if one side was deleted, he said, the cost of installation on one side would be assessed equally to both sides so the cost savings per front foot would not be much.
