utilize
it

whatever
else
is
needed
out

You

You

000

First
reading.
B
A
A
Well,
I've
joked
and
laughed
about
the
fact
you
can
stop
four
times
between
viking
drive
and
brownlee
road
and
I'm
in
as
well
as
south
bossier
on
barksdale
boulevard,
and
this
study
will
allow,
hopefully
for
the
lights
to
be
synchronized
for
those
that
are
my
age
and
older.
You
remember
how
the
signals
used
to
be
set
for
35
miles
an
hour
or
45
miles
an
hour,
and
you
could
go
all
the
way
through
and
make
your
way
without
stopping
where,
when
you
start
that,
then
you
start
stacking
traffic.
A
So
the
purpose
of
this-
and
as
I
appreciate
it
from
these
engineers,
is
that
is
a
possibility
and
that's
what
they're
going
to
work
on
so
hopefully
in
the
next
year
or
so,
and
working
with
dotd,
we
can
get
these
lights
on
those
three
major
thoroughfares,
that
being
airline
benton,
road
and
barksdale
boulevard,
which
is
highway,
71
south
get
those
lights
synchronized
and
everybody
can
enjoy
a
little
peace
of
mind
going
to
work
and
coming
home
from
work.
So
any
other
comments.
B
C
C
Motion
carries
adopt
a
resolution
authorizing
the
acquisition
of
property
of
or
rights
to
property,
from
more
properties,
llp
through
institution
of
ex-appropriation
proceedings
for
street
and
water
projects
in
connection
with
the
walter
o
bigby
carriageway
parkway,
north
extension,
road
project
and
water
line
project.
First
and

reading.

We
talked
a
couple
weeks
back
that
we
had
the
30
percent
submittal
approval
from
up.
We've
got
one
more
submittal
package
to
be
sending
them,
which
is
the
final
set
of
documents
stamp
seal
sign,
delivered
we're
in
the
process
of
reviewing
those
documents
now
so
expect
to
have
that
to
up
soon
and
then
you
know
just
grinding
away
on
the
various
utility
companies
to
get
them
out
of
the
way.
So
we
can
begin
work.
