Facts:
A proposed amendment to a local ordinance that is being promoted by a city citizen’s group has been brought forth by a city council member.
The proposed change to the ordinance is contrary to established engineering standards.
The changes would install traffic engineering infrastructure that many within the local engineering community, including Engineer A, consider unsafe, believe does not satisfy current standards and best practices, and is contrary to a state law that requires an engineering study before proceeding with the change.
The city attorney attempted to explain these factors to the members of the city council in a recent public forum, but the city council voted to proceed with the proposed change to the ordinance.
