McMinnville officials passed on first read an ordinance that will place a four-way stop at the intersection of Rivermont Drive and Boyd Avenue in Westwood.Voting in favor of the measure was Vice Mayor Everett Brock and Aldermen Jimmy Haley, Billy Wood, Rick Barnes and Junior Medley. Mayor Norman Rone and Alderman Clair Cochran were absent.The recommendation to make the change came from Safety Committee members Alderman Rick Barnes and Everett Brock, who agreed one was needed after receiving information from McMinnville Police Chief Bryan Denton about a traffic study his department did in the area.“I love stop signs in residential areas and you can quote me,” Barnes said last month. “We don’t have enough of them.”The study showed a total of 771 vehicles were observed during a 42-hour period.
