AT THE MAY 13TH COMMUNITY ADVISORY COMM. MEETING FOR THE PLANNED “ROAD DIET” DEMONSTRATION PROJECT, WE LEARNED THAT:
EARLY AUGUST 2020 IS THE NEW START DATE FOR THE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT UNLESS PUSHED BACK FURTHER DUE TO LOCKDOWN RESTRICTIONS.
IF NORDHOFF HIGH SCHOOL DELAYS OPENING SCHOOL, THE IMPACT OF THE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT ON THE HIGH SCHOOL IS EFFECTIVELY LOST.
THE CITY IS PLANNING A BIG SOCIAL MEDIA PUSH TO PROMOTE THE “ROAD DIET” SO WE HAVE TO MOUNT A BIGGER PUSH TO RAISE AWARENESS AND BRING SMARTER IDEAS TO THE TABLE.
AT THIS MEETING, FOR EXAMPLE, A RESIDENT OF THE ARBOLADA EXPRESSED CONCERN THAT EVEN THE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT WOULD SEND MORE TRAFFIC THROUGH HER NEIGHBORHOOD.
IF WE DON’T SPEAK UP, THIS PROJECT GETS BUILT AS PLANNED. THEN WE HAVE TO FIGHT TO GET IT REMOVED. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.
