MEMORANDUM
TO Allan F. Kenney, Chairman DATE. 7/9/75 PAGE
Board of Selectmen
FROM John J . McSweeney, Chairman SUBJECT: Mason Street -
Traffic Safety Committee x-1 Traffic
At its meeting of 7/1/75, the Traffic Safety Committee discussed Mr.
Clapp's letter (copy enclosed) regarding traffic on Mason Street.
Mr. Clapp's request for "Caution Children" signs was referred to the
Engineering Division for review with respect to the appropriate warrants
(copy enclosed). It was found that conditions I , 5, and 6 exist on
Mason Street. We therefore recommend that one "Caution Children" sign be
installed on each end of Mason Street. Also, during the review, a check
of the Police Department records revealed that there has been only one
pedestrian related accident on Pleasant Street in the last three years.
Regarding Mr. Clapp's request for speed zoning on Mason Street, the
Committee felt that since Mason Street is covered by the fundamental speed
law, i .e. 30 M.P.H., that speed zoning is unnecessary.
Those of the Traffic Safety Committee in attendance were:
John J. McSweeney, Chairman
Chief Corr, Member
Kenneth Briggs, Member
Peter Chalpin, Member
