All right good morning, this is a meeting of the may 2020 binghamton traffic board. uh 9 17. uh with me is bill. Yeager the police department, we've got john paddock from department of public works, nate miller, dave, patrician from traffic and uh city engineer, ray standish is via a webcam.

B

We only have one item on the agenda today. It is a proposed uh driveway, curb cut at uh 57 midwood drive. uh This is to replace a current driveway um to better align it with grading.

B

There is um unattached plans that I shared with everyone, so the the proposal is to for a new curb cut as detailed. um Let me see here on page l0.

B

For in the in the plans, does anyone have any questions or comments? Radio of anything.

A

um I had a couple comments that I passed on and they got answered, but I the one I have this morning is: uh how long is the existing driveway opening and how long is the one they want to put in.

B

I mean how wide.

A

B

Okay is that notated on the drawing.

B

So I think they're the existing one according to the plans would they would return that and fill that in correct.

A

And that is correct. Okay, I have no problem giving them one the same width as what they had, but this one, the new one, looks even bigger it's just by guessing that I'm saying it's like 40 feet is that something we want to do.

B

um If anyone else has any other comments, um I took a drive up here. It's a pretty remote area of the city and if they are returning the existing driveway back to normal, I think it's a sloping issue. um I I don't have an issue with it ray would you want to?

B

uh We could do something where we approve it pending. You know them giving you that information and your final approval. Sure okay, is that. Is everyone comfortable with that?

B

Okay and then also just for the record. The applicant on this is joe burns city councilman. uh He went through the proper process, worked through planning and has provided these design plans, which, frankly, are more detailed than we typically get for this type of request. So just so, everyone knows that the the proper protocols were followed. So, okay, do we have a motion to approve the curb cut at 47 midwood drive um pending city, engineer, um verification on width motion. John paddock makes the motion.

B

Anything else all right I'll, take a motion to adjourn motion ray makes a motion john seconds, all in favor.
