At the last City Council meeting, during the comments by the Council, a question was asked

Preliminary engineering on the Lower Sacramento Road widening project will start in 1995. Staff
has assumed that the Vine Street signal would be included in this project. One problem will be
that right-of-way will be needed on the southwest corner unless we plan to install temporary
facilities that would need to be relocated later.
The entire priority list is due to be updated. Included in Engineering's 1995/96 operating budget
request is the resttion of pajt-time help to obtain traffic counts for this labor-intensive task.
