Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues

920 E University ST

Case Date:
12/10/2018

I think the scooters, as currently used, are a bad idea. They are dangerous to riders and pedestrians and pose a hazard to motorists, besides clutter our sidewalks. Environmentally, I think of them as a large-scale manifestation of the American disposable razor mentally. At the very least, they need to be thoughtfully regulated. If not banned entirely, then, as motorized vehicles, they should be confined to streets or bike lanes and obey traffic laws, with fines resulting for violations. While we are at it, bicycles should not be allowed on sidewalks either. I am all for low carbon emissions, but I am not convinced the scooters are a safe and green alternative to walking or biking or taking a bus.

Line of Sight

914 E Atwater AVE

Case Date:
8/19/2019

The alley that runs from 2nd St. to the Harmony School parking lot continues north across Hunter and runs to Atwater. There is another alley that runs from Faculty down to Woodlawn (just south of Subway). Those two alleys intersect. The problem is that the intersection is completely overgrown with bushes and vines, which makes it extremely hard for someone headed west to see anyone coming from Hunter. And since so many Harmony kids use that alley to get to Subway, I fear that one of them will get hit, especially now that there are several rental houses with parking off that alley. Could you either have someone trim the overgrowth back or ask the homeowners to do it? If you come down from Faculty, you will see how badly obstructed the view is of anyone coming up the alley from Hunter. (And if you use the alley off of Hunter, be prepared to get scratches on your vehicle by the bushes growing into the alley.)
