Mr. Parks called to inform the City Police that the intersection of West Third St. and Curry Pike is hazardous due to motorists running red traffic lights. He mentioned it is near GE (no incident specifically AT GE, but nearby intersection). He would like the City to send someone out to watch our part of the intersection for violators.
PLEASE SEE ATTACHED LETTER.
Mr. Osbourne says he has contacted Transit 3-4 times to complain city buses are not stopping at stop sign behind Wal-Mart. Transit has told him they will talk to the drivers, but he says nothing has changed. Today, he said bus #9724, route 3E ran through this stop sign.
Erman & Associates has an employee that is handicapped. There are no handicap parking spaces in this block area. They do have a parking lot in back, but they have only 4 parking spaces for 8 employees. Plus the distance is too far and dangerous for the employee to walk. They would like to have a handicap space in front of their building or close to the alley. They would like to be placed on the 9-23-98 Traffic Comm. agenda to get something done before winter and bad weather starts.
Mr. Barr is irate that there aren't a few parking spots reserved for citizens in the Farmers Market lot. He feels the City is treating the citizenry with disrespect by not reserving 5-6 of the Farmers Market spaces for citizens doing business in City Hall.
The Greyhound Bus Company would be using the Cab Co. as a drop off and pick-up area. They would be moving their business from S. Walnut Street to 217 W. 6th Street. McNeely would need the three spaces on the south side of 6th in front of his business as a loading zone for the bus to pull in. The busses would come off of Morton and be able to pull directly into this loading area for drop off/pick-up.
There is a truck that always parks in the road. It makes a normally two laned road into a one laned road.
An anonymous caller left a msg. on voice mail at Utilities Dept. that the owners of the large brick house at the entrance to Sherwood Oaks built a pond and that the drainage was causing ice and hazardous driving on Allendale.
