May I have a time to address the city Council about a problem
regarding parking on Kane Street?
I have talked with the Police Department, the City Engineer's office and
an individual Council member who all directed me to some place else
for redress of our problem.
The undersigned live in the developing community of Pine Knolls,
specifically on Katrina Circle, a private street. We have discovered the
traffic and parking problems on Kane Street to be hazardous to anyone
attempting a left or right turn on to Kane St. Please note the pictures
we have attached.
The Pine Knoll community at present consists of 12 buildings with 2 car
garages. Nine of the condos are occupied. The community will be
developed to consist of 50 homes. At the present time, with construction
vehicles and the vehicles of the present owners, there is little room
during the school year because Kane Street is bumper to bumper with
students: note the pictures.
We have called Wahlert and given them the numbers of the students'
ears which obstruct our exiting Katrina Circle, but if that student
leaves, another takes his/her place.
We are concerned that the students and some staff are parking on Kane
Street and respectfully request that you put in motion a change in the
parking on Kane Street making student parking available on the other
side (north side) of Kane Street. At present there are "No Parking"
signs in front of Waldert High School and they do have a large parking
lot which some students don't want to use. In fact they seem to want to
leave the campus during the school day and so don't avail themselves of
the student parking lot.
Additionally we have a bus, which stops on the corner to Kane and
Chaney. The bus is an asset to the area but the student parking on
Kane Street needs to be addressed. The "No Parking" signs ought to be
on the south side of Kane Street as they are on the east side of Chaney
St..
We hope that you will cooperate with us by easing this problem and
having Wahlert parking redesigned for parking on their side of the
street.
Respectfully yours,
June E. Strueber

I have received a letter from the residents of the Pine Knoll residences regarding parking
on Kane Street. At Wahlert High School, we wish to be good neighbors with everyone
living in the area. We would be interested in being part of any discussions that could
alleviate a problem in the area. We will continue to cooperate when issues of illegal
parking are brought to our attention. I would add that we support the ticketing of
vehicles parked illegally.
I am available if you have any questions at 583-9771
Respectfully,
Donald Sisler
