I would like to request sidewalks along the 10th Street and a crosswalk from and to University Elementary School at Russel Rd or Tamarron Dr so that more children from neighboring communities can enjoy walking and biking to school. I understand the complications with it being a State road, but with schools and the city promoting healthy living and lifestyle, it seems that a discussion about gaining walking access in this area is important. Not only will it allow our children to walk to school, but it will provide community members in Tamarron, Eastern Heights, and nearby apartments the ability to safely access the bus stops and downtown without using cars.

I have been a resident of the Eastern Heights neighborhood since 1978. Even before I moved into the neighborhood I remember seeing signs along St. Rd. 45 pleading for sidewalks to be constructed there. Our children have to ride the bus to school (even though University School is literally right across the street from our neighborhood) because of the lack of sidewalks and safe crossing of St. Rd. 45. I know that our area is governed by the Seymour district of INDOT and that they believe the area does not have enough traffic to warrant a sidewalk. I also know that the traffic count was completed several years ago in December during I.U.'s winter break and half of the town was gone. I suspect if they conducted another count during a time with typical traffic, they would find a completely different result. We have waited long enough for sidewalks. Now is the time, please! Thanks for your help in getting this accomplished.

Since I live at 4200 E Deckard Drive, I am a resident of Eastern Heights neighborhood and our community has been in desperate need for sidewalks along 10th Street from E. Etter Drive through to Grandview neighborhood. We also need crosswalks to University Elementary School. We understand the complications with it being a State road, but a meeting is needed to begin the formal process of gaining walking access in this area. Not only will it allow our children to walk to school, but it will provide community members in Tamarron and Eastern Heights the ability to safely walk to the bus stop and access the University and downtown without the use of cars.

I am the President of the Eastern Height Neighborhood Association and our community has been in desperate need for sidewalks along 10th Street from E Etter Drive through to Grandview neighborhood, as well as crosswalks to University Elementary School. The Grandview, Park Ridge East and Park Ridge neighborhood organizations are also requesting this, as well as University Elementary School. We understand the complications with the State, but a meeting is needed to begin the formal process of gaining walking access in this area. Not only will it allow our children to walk to school, but it will provide community members in Tamarron and Eastern Heights the ability to safely walk to the bus stop and access the University and downtown without the use of cars. Please contact me in order to discuss how we can help you help us. Thank you very much. Lauren Dula

The sidewalk to the east of our front steps is cracked. A large mud puddle stays there, such that we need to keep it covered in straw in order for pedestrians not to slip and get muddy. This section is just next to the new sidewalks planned for the intersection of Fairview and Dodds streets. Including this segment in your replacements and repairs will allow an efficient, strategic improvement. Thank you.

Pete Ellis Drive West side sidewalk from Amy Lane to 3rd has large cracks, pothole and many walking neighborhood residents with walkers, canes or just trying to get to Marsh or KFC or McDonalds or the Mall have twisted ankles or fallen due to poor upkeep. Since many apartment dwellers walk everywhere, please ask the sidewalk committee to review the issue. I told Councilman Spechler several months ago and he is retiring. Thank you for a supporting active walkers by providing safe sidewalks.

The curb cut has turned into a sink hole at the southwest corner of 9th and IN. The sidewalk on the opposite corner (north side of 9th between Indiana and Fess) is also a problem.

Requesting a sidewalk connection between the Eastside neighborhoods on 10th and Smith to University Elementary sidewalk on corner of 10th and Russell Road. I see many people, including parents with young children, having to walk on the busy road or in side slopes/drainage ditches if they choose to walk to school. Thank you for considering and for all that you do.
