RE:
3395 Kennedy Circle
Dear Jon,
On Wednesday December 8th at approximately 4:00 p.m. a KeyLine minibus
driver backed his minibus unto the canopy at your facility on 3395 Kennedy
Circle. According to the driver and a citizen who witnessed the accident, the
driver could not make the turn around without stopping and backing up into a
three-point turn due to a private vehicle parked in the circle.
The following morning I went up to the apartment to see the damage in the
daylight. When I pulled into the circle there was a red Chevrolet Ventura minivan
parked in the turn around circle directly in front of the entrance at a right angle to
the curb. In my GMC Sonoma pick up Jon I could not make the turn around
without backing up.
It's a new facility (and a beautiful facility I might add) and everyone including my
drivers are getting acclimated to a new routine. We may want to consider one or
more options to address the problem.
The most obvious is to post no parking signs and/or paint the curb yellow in the
entrance turn around so that the turn around is free and clear of all parked cars.
This is always difficult to enforce 100% of the time anywhere in the City but it
may reduce the number of times a driver needs to back up.
Another option could be to move the boarding location from the apartment turn
around to the City street cul-de-sac and possibly install a bus shelter at that
location. I'm not familiar with the right of way and street scape in the area but if

space permitted, we may want to put a large heated shelter there. This isn't the
nicest alternative in the winter months but it is still an option if you're interested.
Please have your contractor estimate the damage and submit the estimate with
the attached claim form to the City Clerk at City Hall for processing and payment
Jon. I'm sorry to start out on this note on such a wonderful facility, but hopefully
we can make the necessary adjustments quickly to prevent further incidents.
Thanks.
Sincerely,
