Vice CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING, 6/6/96 PAGE 2 Mayor Furtado arrived at 7:50 P.M. PRESENTATIONS• CRALLS UPDATE The City Engineer provided an update regarding the CRALLS designation for Military Trail, and explained that there was a difference in the accuracy of the engineering science in traffic modeling and in the traffic flow through a PUD. A new Test 2 had provided a traffic count of 5100 as opposed to 5500 in the former test, causing failure in the 2015 model, which was the result of changes in the model structure and input, not from any recent land use approvals made by the City. After further review and discussion, the City Engineer expressed his opinion that the error factor within the model could vary plus or minus 15�. Based on the reported information, and with consideration of the future Northlake Boulevard turnpike interchange and flyover, the majority of the City Council members agreed that a three -year FALLS designation was appropriate. Councilwoman Mcnroe expressed her opinion in favor of a two -year designation. A resolution to show support by the City Council was proposed for the consent agenda at the next meeting.
