Beach Boulevard, Adams/Beach, and Ellis/Beach. She stated that the Commission
recommended parking restrictions on Beach Boulevard during peak hours of 6:00
A.M. to 9:00 A.M. and 3:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M. She stated the Commission recom-
mended approval, in concept, of grade separation (flyover) at Warner Avenue
and Beach Boulevard. Ms. Mills stated that widening of that intersection
would prove effective only for five years at which time the intersection would
again fail. She clarified the term "approval in concept" to mean that the
grade separation could be feasible, but with no commitment to building the
structure until further economic and environmental analysis were completed
which would begin June 1986 and take approximately one year.

Page 3 - Council Minutes - 2/3/86
In response to questioning, Ms. Mills stated that part of the county's recom-
mendation would be that the City consider moving forward with an on -ramp at
Gothard and Hoover Streets to encourage people to use the freeway. She agreed
that widening of Heil Avenue was a necessary project.
Ms. Mills stated that each city would approve that portion of the plan that
applies to their city. She assured Council that neither the Orange County
Transportation Commission nor CAL -TRANS would approve the flyover if the City
of Huntington Beach disapproved the project. Mr. Oftelie stated that the Com-
mission was comfortable that funding would be available for construction of
the flyover. In response to questioning, Ms. Mills stated that the studies on
the flyover would be regarding a pre-fab structure that would take between
eleven and twenty weeks to build.

of the Chamber of Commerce, in support of the Beach Boulevard Super Street
Demonstration Project concept with access control and parking receiving heavy

Mayor.
In response to questions raised by citizens, Lisa Mills, Project Manager,
Orange County Transportation Commission, stated that the traffic count on
Beach Boulevard was made April 1985, and that the count was higher at Edinger
Avenue because there were additional lanes under the freeway. She stated the
speed limit on the grade separation would be 45 miles per hour. She referred
to questions by Hick Nicolai regarding restriping of the intersection at War-
ner Avenue and Beach Boulevard that was done in conjunction with construction
of the Charter Centre to Bruce Gilmore, Huntington Beach Traffic Engineer.
