hazard be minimized by adding another lane to accommodate left turn
movement from the Belt Highway; and
WHEREAS, the condition warrants immediate corrective action as
several near rear end collisions have occurred in the past.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE.000NTY OF

concern that immediate action is justified and desirable for public
safety.

remit copies of this Resolution to Dr. Ryokichi Higashionna,
Director of the State Department of Transportation; Mr. Alvah
