We have substantial concerns with potential Greenway roadblocks City Council we heard were proposing to how it may impact Park Ridge East and our Greenway? We were told after years of advocacy that we were finally getting calming to East Morningside (this being typed as a racer just roared their engine on that road). We want to make sure planning is still moving forward in 2023 for the Greenway improvements, with improvement construction to follow in early 2024?

Another super speeder on East Morningside today. White SUV. How many years before the city acts? Give us stop signs midway at three way or speed humps etc. Enough already!

Rollerbladed Clear Creek today, the new portion the County must have opened in the last 1.5 years or so? Was awesome. It is unfortunate how little attention the City pays to skating accessibility. Smooth surfaces are key. Bike and pedestrian commission doesn't even mention skating. Can a skate-specific person be appointed please? Skaters take up less space in the same area compared to bicycles and can easily be thrown in a bag or office. It'd be nice to see more skating commute options. It's not all about boards destroying curbs or whatever people think. I'm certainly no teenager or 20-year-old anymore. Particularly there needs to be an east-west trail in town that goes from far east like the lazer tag place and Summerhouse all the way to campus, and then over to the B-line.

I have called the Planning Office 3 times recently and left messages. NO ONE returns calls. I am trying to find out if you can have 2 tiny houses on your city lot? This is the back of 917 N Fairview Street taken from my Mom's house at 912 N Maple. THANKS!

I just want to say we are SOOOO excited for the east-west 7-line and can't wait until it expands east of campus to neighborhoods, but still neat to see the progress for now! Please keep prioritizing this important spoke.

Please speed monitor or alter/enhance 7th/Longview Greenway for greater biker/pedestrian safety. Lots of unnecessary quick cutthrough traffic from Summerhouse in particular.

Hello. We received notice that our street is looking at a traffic calming preapplication. It appears criteria include items such as police reports. Though that sort of data is important please please consider that reality is beyond just what the data paint. We pushed two cars out that drove into our yard in the snow already this week on east morningside and just now noticed another individual going much much too fast down the road while texting. Please look at the experiences of those who live on the street, complaints, maybe even photos households have, and otherwise solicit input of residents on the affected possible roads for improvements. Thank you.

Your udo housing survey isn't letting people submit. Main complaint I had is the political cow towing to where students should be. Main one was student housing should be by campus. Don't pretend east of college mall is next to campus or some of the other highlighted areas. Campus isn't in the rural country anymore. It's the middle of town. The immediate surroundings should be full of students for the benefit of all. Just because rich single family homes of non students is what is there doesn't mean that should be. That's the absolute worst place to freeze in history for prices to rise and the privileged to claim. We should have nice but dense student oriented housing in the immediacy of all sides of campus, not a mile or longer away. Bad for environment, traffic, equity, and Social cohesion.

Can the City PLEASE do something about slowing down traffic on East Morningside through Park Ridge East. I think nearly every resident on the block has complained, particularly those with kids. It can be speed bumps, but can be anything else too, raised garden beds in the street periodically, rumble strips, anything. But it's getting worse now that traffic backs up past the stop sign more regularly now at Smith and Morningside between 3rd and Morningside because of limited lanes at the intersection with highway construction. So cars when backed beyond the stop sign are speeding through the neighborhood as a shortcut to get back to 3rd/highway. Any help is super appreciated. Please reach out to the neighborhood association if helpful, or honestly knock on any of our doors on E Morningside and we'd be happy to provide input as those living on the street are most affected. If you want a handful of names of supporters, let us know, but in short it's a residential street that is full of bikers and walkers and the neighborhood is largely contained so doesn't need a highway through it on Morningside. We welcome any sort of E/W B-line that we've heard about or anything else that isn't fast cars. Thank you! It also goes right by the park! Oh, we did want to say thank you for the new tennis benches at the park though! Folks across the city use those courts, so they'll come in handy!

E Morningside Drive continues to have heavy speeders, even if most people fine. Multiple neighbors have requested traffic calming for years. Kids almost hit again today. For the people living on the road please do something.
