Council to Consider Traffic Signal Request
The City Council tonight will consider approving a traffic signal at Commonwealth and Lillie avenues, where two people were killed recently.
Located within a half-mile of the intersection are large apartment complexes, an elementary school, a junior high school and single-family homes.
Armando Ibarra, 8, who lived in one of the apartment complexes on Commonwealth, was hit in July, and Mario Hernandez Rodriguez, 62, of Pocoima was hit in March. Since then, residents have been collecting signatures on a petition, urging city officials to install the traffic signal.
The council will discuss the proposal at 7:30 tonight at City Hall, 303 W. Commonwealth Ave.
In other action, the council is to consider selecting a design for the expansion of the Fullerton Public Library’s children’s section.
