MovingAhead Spring 2019 Outreach Summary 101 <br />Oh my goodness, On Coburg road, the bus stops were not cleared of snow for several days. This made it <br />difficult for older people, as well as people who had challenges of many kinds. I saw people walking on <br />Coburg Road because the sidewalks were not cleared by the businesses who ignored their duty to clear <br />the sidewalks on their property. <br />City code is a bit vague and there appear to be little or no consequences for property owners who delay <br />clearing sidewalks. On Wednesday and Thursday of the storm week. Only one business on Coburg road <br />between Harlow and the Ferry Street bridge shoveled its walk! But most had their driveways and <br />parking lots and entries cleared. This includes Oakway Mall, Albertsons, Natural Groceries to name a <br />few. <br />I saw no one on a wheelchair, because the sidewalks were impassable., <br />There was one exception, the car wash! This owner did his duty. As far as I can tell no one else did. This <br />business should be commended for doing the right thing. <br />But the other businesses should be shamed. City Code needs to be strengthened as the code is vague <br />and the consequent city notices are passive at best. LTD and the city could collaborate in notifying <br />business directly of the duty to clear sidewalks in a timely manner! <br />I was many elderly, and people with disabilities struggle. On Monday and Tuesday, people had to walk <br />on the road itself. Thursday and Friday the sidewalk snow turned into ice. Walking on the sidewalks was <br />treacherous. <br />We need to make non car transportation safe! <br />Thank you for listening. <br />Interested to support efforts for improvements to the 30th Avenue/LCC corridor. <br />I am 10 year resident, recent retired, hoping for a bus to go to Mt. Pisgah Arboretum. no need to <br />respond <br />Could you please share with me the current timeline for MovingAhead decision-making, i.e., an updated <br />version of the attached? <br />I recall seeing this timeline as part of the slide presentation to the Metropolitan Policy Committee 1-1/2 <br />weeks ago, as well as I believe at recent LYTD board meetings. But I am not seeing it on either the <br />MovingAhead or LTD websites. <br />BEST is wanting to share this info with the public as part of our efforts to help spread the word about <br />tonight’s open house. <br />As soon as possible, could you please let me know where my front property will end and the new side <br />walk, bike path, larger streets are planned so I can move plants and maybe get a new fence going before <br />summer. Thank you. <br /> <br />I’d like to see better and safer bike lanes. Bike lanes physically separated from vehicular traffic instead of <br />a 6 foot lane demarked by paint. <br />I am in support of the Enhanced system improvements. We have already spent so much money (via Fed <br />and local funding) for EM-X. But the business/traffic interruption and costs outweigh the benefits, <br />especially for an EM-X line up Coburg Road. Please don't bring EM-X to the Coburg Road! <br /> <br />No build option! But do something with River rd and Coburg area! <br />July 15, 2019, Joint Work Session – Item1
