<br />at least two of these that I see just real quickly, do - <br />30ll and 3l0l. <br /> <br />MR. JAMES TERWILLIGER, 3027 Shorewood Lane: I would be <br />affected because I'm on the corner of Shorewood Curve and Lane. <br />I am against the installation of lighting. I think it detracts <br />from the character of the neighborhood. I walk that route <br />practically every night about 10:15 with my dog, and I enjoy <br />it that way. We have never had any problem - probably <br />because we have a dog in the house. I know there have been <br />problems with vandalism. We have had lawn jobs done on our <br />front lawns a couple of times. I have no reason to believe <br />if there had been a street light that it wouldn't have <br />happened, so I'm opposed to it. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: Anyone else? <br /> <br />MR. PAT PHILLIPS, 3084 Shorewood Lane: I wonder if it <br />would be all right for me to refer to the map. There were <br />a couple of points I thought should be pointed out to the <br />Council. Several of the houses, as you indicated, do benefit <br />from existing street lights and the area - that's primarily <br />(inaudible) is through the center of this section and I think <br />some of us that live in that particular area where I live <br />feel mostly concerned about how dark that is and how the fact <br />that it's a curvy street and the cars are tempted to go through <br />at high speed. Our children attend St. Rose School and this <br />year they're going to be getting home somewhere after 4:30 on <br />the school bus. At that time those streets are dark. They'll <br />be dark in the middle of the winter and I feel quite strongly <br />that we need the lights for the protection of children in the <br />area. I think the crime certainly is a debateable issue. <br />When I moved into the house I'm now in ten years ago. within <br />the first six months we had a burglary and I installed back- <br />yard lights, and whether because of that, I haven't had a <br />problem. 09r next door neighbor did have a problem. I feel <br />the presence of lights would be a deterrent. I think some <br />of the considerations of the people that may have been opposed, <br />that Joe Rivard has brought to our attention, do benefit some <br />of the primary (inaudible) coming in and out of their houses <br />through the rear entrance on Wheeler. Many have driveways on <br />Wheeler rather than Shorewood Lane or Curve, so I feel that <br />some of the people would be influenced by that consideration <br />
