comin down Eldridge from Hamline know where to turn next and don't have to do U turns or turnaround <br /> people g g ( <br /> in driveways). <br /> Overflow parking and pedestrians in surrounding streets: <br /> • There is a large volume of pedestrian traffic and street car parking that occurs when the lot is full and fair goers turn <br /> to parking on the street. Fair goers often walk up Eldridge to get to the parking lot or the front of the church to <br /> catch the bus on Hamline, and then walk back the same way to get back to their cars,the extra foot and car traffic <br /> is especially noticeable when the buses drop off a bus load of people and they are all going back to their cars in the <br /> lot or on the street and then driving back the route they came, which often is back up Eldridge to Hamline.The <br /> sound levels of the pedestrians coming and going from their cars can be loud. So they may have been on our block <br /> of Eldridge Ave up to four times between driving in and out, and/or walking to and from their car to the bus on <br /> Hamline. <br /> • There is no parking allowed year round on the north side of our block of Eldridge between Hamline and Dellwood <br /> (mostly abided by), and the church puts up a "no state fair parking" sign on the south side of Eldridge between <br /> Hamline and Dellwood. Fair goers can park on both sides of Eldridge from Dellwood to Fernwood, and on both sides <br /> of Dellwood from Cty Rd B to Eldridge (as well as on other blocks, but they are not the focus here). Fair goers often <br /> park all the way up to the stop sign on the west side of Dellwood on our property at the corner of Eldridge and <br /> often park to close to corners or driveways. Occasionally it seems that fair parking ends up on our block of Eldridge <br /> between Hamline and Dellwood, on either or both sides, but tickets don't seem to be issued to those who park on <br /> the south side of Eldridge where it is prohibited year round and there are permanent no parking signs. <br /> Suggestions: <br /> I appreciate that the church usually puts up "no state fair parking" signs on the south side of our street of Eldridge <br /> between Hamline and Dellwood, but I do suspect it is because it is the street that the car traffic is directed to drive <br /> down and then turn on to Dellwood from. <br /> What about considering no parking on one side of the street of Dellwood between Eldridge and Burke? <br /> Or no parking on one side of the street on Eldridge between Dellwood and Fernwood? <br /> There is not a four way stop sign (only a two way stop) at the corner of Eldridge and Dellwood and I have concerns <br /> about an accident at that corner when there are cars lining both sides of the street during the fair on Dellwood <br /> between Eldridge and Burke and lining both sides of the street on Eldridge between Dellwood and Fernwood. Cars <br /> sometime travel too quickly on Eldridge through the intersection with Dellwood, and only Dellwood traffic has to <br /> stop, and it can be harder to see when there are cars on both sides of both streets there, and no room for two <br /> direction of traffic to travel at once. <br /> Garbage left behind: <br /> • Another concern is garbage fair goers leave behind where they were parked, especially on Dellwood between <br /> Eldridge and Burke. I picked up garbage on Dellwood several times during the 2011 state fair period, including cups, <br /> bags, wrappers, and napkins or other similar fair related waste. <br /> Suggestions: <br /> • What about considering having the church volunteers pick up garbage in the first tier of streets where the overflow <br /> parking regularly occurs during the fair? <br /> I am aware of the church receives some financial compensation, and of the time and energy the volunteers put in watching <br /> the lot, and that the community ultimately benefits from serving as a MN state fair park& ride location. <br /> I am just asking that more attention to detail occur so as to not as noticeably impact the normally high quality of life for <br /> nearby residents due to the park& ride during the fair. <br /> Thanks for your time, <br /> Sarah S h rove r <br /> 1283 Eldridge Ave W <br /> Page 2 of 8 <br />
