The Houston City Council approved plans Monday for MoDOT to perform a study of traffic along U.S. 63.
The review will include such things as speed limits, turning lanes and signage.
The action came during the six-member board’s meeting.
The council also voted to spend up to $1,000 to disc, seed and fertilize property west of the industrial park for the addition of a soccer field that will open in the fall. The tract is owned by the Tuttle family.
In other matters, members:
—Discussed no loitering signage for a parking lot situated at Lone Star Plaza. Trash has become an issue there.
—Asked Brad Eidson, city attorney, to prepare documents for abandonment of a city alley way near Second Street. Steve Drake has purchased property there.
—Decided delinquent utility bills will be sent to either court or a collection agency, depending on the amount.
Also attending the meeting were Superintendent Scott Dill and Ron Reed, economic developer.
