Re:
Sidewalks on Radford and Pennsylvania Roads
Dear Mr. Van Milligan and members of the City Council:
This is NOT just a school issue.
Sidewalks are needed for all the residents of this area.
I took special interest in the comment from Gus Psihoyos that you were considering no
sidewalks on the south side of Pennsylvania. With all the new construction near Middle
Road and Seippel Road there is a big increase in vehicle traffic.
We have many, many walkers and joggers in our neighborhood. It is extremely
dangerous to the pedestrian because they have to either walk in the gutters or fight the
weeds and overgrown grass on the walk area. It's also a hazard for the driver of a
vehicle.
We need sidewalks on ALL sides of these streets. Now is the time to do the installation
properly and completely.
Please require sidewalks on all sides of Radford Road and Pennsylvania Road.
Thank you for your consideration of this issue.
Sincerely,
~~xf~
