Janet Henquinet From'* ""Janet Henquiniet" <janethenquinet@corncast. net> To <dluan�e,schw,artz,,@ciroseville.mnus> Sent: Wednesday, l June 02, 2010 11 1#06 AM Sul4ect: 82 parking restrictions (Lexington to Harnline) Hi Duane, As we discussed yesterday 1, am requesting further parking restrictions on the north side of County Road E3,2 between Lexington ands Harnline. I live at 1187 Colu�nty Road B2 and have been here since 1973, Traffic, continually increases on this road as one would expect but since the enlargement of Rosedale and the addition of the movie theatres the increase has been even more noticeable, In addition to the general increase we now have daily traffic backups, from the Lexington Avenue Intersection past my house during evening rush hour. M 1 Rkyw OR IN IN I- WOR 1, Those of us who live across from the school have great difficulty safely exiting (and even entering) our driveways. I now have friends in mire about the traffic situation before making plans to come to my house. 2. Many times people will park, with 1-3 feet of their vehicle on my grass since large vehicles do not really fit within the white lines on the street. 3. Most implortant is the qgLe!y hazard created when trying to drive down the street with cars lining both sides,, Car doors, swinging open into the lane of traffice, adults and chilldrien darting out from between cars,, and generally heavy pedestrian traffic when there is extremely limited visibility for drivers are the provierblat "accidents waiting to happen". This situation is obviously exacerbated further when we have both athletic events, and the evening rush hour backup from the Lexington-Avenue traffic light. Tooting horns, and screeching brakes always make my heart beat a bit faster. My request is for a general parking ban on, the north side of B2 between Lexington and Harnline. If that is not possible/feasible I am requesting that at minimum, there be a north, side parking ban during school or athletic events. In the latter case I am not sure what signage could be used to avoid confusion and enforcement problems so I leave that up to the city and county to determine. I definitely am not complaining about state fair parking but would like to add that a general parking ban on the north side would also help the safety situation during the two weekends of the fair when fairgoers park on both sides of the street. Please feel freie to call me if I can provide any further information 651-483-31098 and thank you for your considleratioln of this request.
