During the school drop-off and pickup this intersection has a large amount of traffic. This is also the main corridor that people biking and walking use to get to to school and unfortunately is was not design to be compatible with both large amounts of student driver traffic, and walkers and bikers. This whole intersection as well as the path going into the school needs to be redone to promote more biking among the youth(including me). A well done biking friendly intersection and route into school would improve the safety for walkers and bikers as well as encourage more young students to walk and bike to school which would decrease the amount of traffic as well as the carbon emissions.

On the south east corner of the intersection of Henderson St. and Brenda Ln the sidewalks around the bus stop have some very low hanging tree branches that obstruct clear passage along the sidewalk. It would be great to see this get trimmed back.

There is a utility pole on the southwest corner of Grimes and Palmer. It is covered with heavy vines and overgrowth. Drivers heading North or turning onto Grimes have to pull out onto Grimes to get a view of the eastbound traffic. Pretty dangerous. Thank you for your help. L Gallagher 1225 S Palmer

Hedges are preventing people from standing safely at the bus stop. Additionally, they are impeding line of sight and causing vehicles to pull into Graham to see east traveling traffic. Wall, is collapsing into the easement and preventing people from street parking.

There are a few areas on E Ridgeview Dr. and E Sunny Slopes Dr. that the roads are partially blocked by low hanging trees. Specifically across from 214 E Ridgeview Dr. This is any already blind curve, but the tree is hanging too far into the street making it unsafe because drivers are swerving to miss it and not seeing oncoming traffic, also making it unsafe work those walking. Last year it was partially trimmed back by the city. We would like it trimmed back to the edge of the road. Thank you!

The intersection of Burks Drive and Walnut Street needs to be crossed by pedestrians and cyclists fairly often, but there is lots of high speed traffic on that road. Pedestrians coming from the residential areas around Burks have no way to safely cross Walnut Street. The sidewalk on the east side of walnut is currently closed, but it is missing several sections even when it is open, so you can't even walk along Walnut to the crossing at Rhorer Road. This problem will be exacerbated by the new library branch. Residents east of Walnut will have no way to safely and easily reach the library except by car. There needs to be a light and crosswalk of some sort installed so that it is passable.

Ever since 4th St re-opend (one lane, then all lanes) people/vehicles are constantly RUNNING the STOP SIGN northbound at 4th & Lincoln. I walk through this intersection at least twice each day. Many just blow through this intersection without even looking. It happened, again, this morning. I was half-day across Lincoln going east. The go-straight lane stopped, but the turn right lane did not even look my way and went ahead and turned right without stopping. The stop signs are clearly visible. What the heck?

Next week the Roger's School will start. The school, since August of 2021, has instructed parents to drop off and pick up students to and from the parents' vehicles by using the 1st St entrance off S High St to the Faculty and Staff parking area. This is a drive-through use which is not allowed in the MI zone. Variance V-17-14 addressed this issue stating that the central area to the east of Rogers School was to be used for student drop off and pick up and that the west parking area was to be used by only the Faculty and Staff. This was clearing stated in both the Planning Staff report and testimony as well as the MCCSC representatives' letters and under oath testimony. This restriction of no student drop off and pickup in the west parking area was a continuation of the policy that MCCSC agreed to with the City several years earlier. The west parking area has a gate and signs that limit access to Faculty and Staff only. In August of 2021, MCCSC and Roger's School started to allow student drop off and pickup in the west parking area has a Covid related safety issues. The Roger's Principal stated that this drop off and pickup policy would be temporary. The Covid issue is no longer relevant but the drop off and pickup continues. As a result, at the school start and end times, S High St is often backed up to the 2nd and Maxwell Streets intersections. E 1st street is backed up past Clifton and the driveways on 1st Street are blocked. I ask the City to enforce the UDO and the variance statements. Student drop off and pickup by parents in vehicles should be restricted to the central area only. This was the plan as stated by the City and MCCSC and is consistent with not allowing drive-throughs in the MI zone.
