RESOLUTION 07-18
A RESOLUTION OF THE HOMER CITY COUNCIL REQUESTING THAT THE
TRANSPORTATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE REVIEW AND MAKE
RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE USE OF PIONEER AVENUE, LAKE STREET, AND THE
BYPASS, AS A ONE-WAY TRAFFIC COUPLET AROUND THE CITY CENTER.
WHEREAS, Traffic congestion and routing in the City of Homer has been discussed and studied for
many years; and
WHEREAS, The roundabout and stop light alternatives to relieve traffic congestion are significantly
more expensive than the alternative of developing a one-way couplet for the same purpose; and
WHEREAS, It would be beneficial for the City of Homer to have the transportation committee
review the couplet alternative and provide for citizen input into such a plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That the City Council requests that the transportation
committee study the possible use of Pioneer Avenue, Lake Street, and the Bypass, as a one-way
couplet around the city center, develop a simple concept design, and make recommendations on the
plan.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the Homer City Council this 8th day of January, 2007.
