Minutes (Open Portion) Page 8 Council Meeting 17/12/2018 5. PUBLIC QUESTION TIME 6.1 Mr Chris Merridew Mr Merridew put the following question and was provided with a response from the Lordy Mayor. Question: In the light of the extended debate of traffic issues surrounding our city, would the Council give consideration to abandoning their plan (RFS17 File 17-0098 CPC Meeting 10/12/2018), which will permanently close off the second lane east bound on Morrison Street from the Gladstone Street/Salamanca Place roundabout towards Murray Street? Further, this would compromise the effectiveness of Morrison from Murray to Elizabeth when under clearway provision. Thus destroying the major component of the eastern city bypass.

As your question relates to item 9.4 of tonight’s agenda I cannot provide a response this evening. You are welcome to stay and listen to the debate. 6.2 Dr Robert Murfet Dr Murfet put the following question and was provided with a response from the Lordy Mayor. Question:
