(KLZA)-- Falls City Council members took no action Monday night on a request from Tom Adams to place STOP signs on Abbott Street at 17th and 18th Streets.

Adams said he was concerned about the speed of the traffic on Abbott Street with an increasing number of children in the area.

While the Council acknowledged the problem, some felt it would set a precedent and many more people would request STOP signs in their neighborhoods.

Third Ward Council member Micth Merz suggested the City develop a master plan to held determine the locations most in need of traffic signs since there seems to be a greater number of traffic infractions occurring all over town.

In other action, The council approved a request to block of 17th Street between Harlan and Stone Streets on Sunday, September 27 for a “eat local take out party” sponsored by the Falls City Chamber of Commerce & Main Street in an effort to support local eating establishments by ordering take out and encouraging patrons to shop downtown.
