I Reverend
Virs. LaBree,-Mrs. Holthausq Mrs. Robinson, 1,,rs. vlitschen, and ?
Johnson were present to discuss with the Council as to why Council had
opened that portion of 4th Street by the Elementary School between Wal-
nut Street and Pine Street to vehicular traffic. They stated that by
opening this street they felt that it was creating a safety hazard to the
children because the school playground is located on both sides of 4th
Street. Council members pointed out that with proper traffic control
signs and a fence on both sides of the playground that borders 4th Street
there won't be any
, problem of a safety hazard. Council further stated
that by opening this street much of the traffic that had gone around the
school on three sides could now travel on one side only. Council stated
that they would install proper traffic control signs on 4th Street but
the school district would have to provide the fence that will be required.
The delegation of concerned citizens stated that they felt the Council
and the School Board should br, able to sit down and work out this problem.
Coi.mcil members stated. that they had tried to discuss this with the School
Board. However, Council members stated that they would meet again with
the School Board anytime on the above matter.
