<br />. -/ <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />PETITION <br /> <br />We the undersigned residents of the city of Arden Hills, hereby petition the <br />Arden Hills City Council to authorize the placement of "no parking during <br />school hours" street signs on the portion of Chatham Avenue adjacent to the <br />Valentine Hills School property for the following reasons: <br /> <br />1. We are concerned for the safety of the children. <br />Cars parked on the portion of Chatham A venue adjacent to school <br />property present a safety hazard to the children attending Valentine Hills <br />School by hindering visibility for the children who walk to and from <br />school. <br /> <br />2. During the start of school hours, the parked cars contribute to unsafe <br />traffic congestion. Parents are forced to stop adjacent to the parked cars <br />when dropping children off at school. This not only creates a traffic <br />safety concern for the other vehicular traffic on Chatham Avenue, it <br />forces young children to maneuver between parked and idling cars to <br />reach school property. <br /> <br />e 3. Parking cars on both side of the street in the aforementioned area <br />continues to cause unsafe traffic congestion throughout the school day by <br />forcing traffic to one lane only. The safety concern is exacerbated by <br />already compromised visibility from the curving hill on this part of <br />Chatham Avenue. <br /> <br />4. Allowing cars to park on the aforementioned area of Chatham Avenue <br />undermines the school's safety policy that requires school visitors to enter <br />through the front doors of the school building, and instead encourages <br />access to the school through the back doors of the building. <br /> <br />5. There are ample parking spaces in the large, east parking lot of the school <br />to accommodate school personnel and visitor parking needs. Therefore, <br />parking on the aforementioned area is an unnecessary hazard for the <br />children, residents and motorists on Chatham Avenue. <br /> <br />e <br />
