(I'll initiate.) I wonder whether our approvals for these operations <br />are being followed, and whether some or all of this resident's concerns can be addressed <br />in our approvals next year. Please consider what response we can make to this resident, <br />with a copy to the Council. I suppose we can demonstrate that we are always trying to <br />improve this situation where feasible--our public hearings and~ormal a ovals with <br />conditions this year prove that. Now, as concerns such as Mr. me forward, <br />either at the public hearings or during the Fair, we can work Wl e owners of the <br />remote lots and the State Fair to see if such new concerns can be addressed henceforth. <br />Thanks.

When the church lot is full, <br />additional cars are parking on the neighborhood streets around the parking lot. Please see <br />the attached photos of this type of parking on Eldridge, Dellwood, and Skillman: <br /><<Eldridge.jpg>> <<Dellwood.jpg>> <<Skillman.jpg>> <br />Our neighborhood streets are used as sidewalks, especially by children in the <br />neighborhood. The combination of extra traffic in the neighborhood because of the Fair <br />parking and having the streets narrowed by the unusual number of parked cars results in an <br />unsafe condition for the pedestrians using the street. I would guess that other Fair <br />remote parking locations are experiencing similar problems and safety concerns. I urge you <br />to take the following measures, if not this year then in the future: <br />* Install temporary No Parking signs on the streets adjacent to the remote Fair <br />parking lots, with temporary parking permits issued to the residents <br />o the signs need to be official and the parking restrictions need to be enforced <br />* Make sure that the Fair has a system in place to guide patrons to other available <br />parking locations when some of their lots are full <br />o All the lots should be linked by radio so that they can determine where parking is <br />available and patrons can be directed to the appropriate locations <br />o The Fair needs to have an overflow location that patrons can be directed to when all <br />the remote lots are full <br />o Maps showing all the lots should be available at every location <br /> <br />In general, we are supportive of the program for remote Fair parking. It affects our <br />neighborhood dramatically, but it is a well-run and worthwhile program. When we have <br />commented on operational details in the past, we have usually received a cordial and <br />constructive response from the Fair staff and the St. Rose men's group.
