Hello everyone,
My neighbors Greg and Mary Pister report a couple of things over the weekend:
One, a young man asking for money who later headed up the hill, then returned
and rifled through their car, which is usually locked. They tried to report
this to the police, but had a hard time finding a live person to pick up the
phone.
Two, a young-ish man driving up the hill at possibly 50 mph in the afternoon.
They were out front putting halloween decorations in the lawn with their
daughter and small grandchild, so it was very upsetting. We wonder what the
likelihood of a speed bump is, given that traffic continues to increase in
quantity and speed on East High Street. I know we told City about the missing
25 MPH sign near Fabios well over a year ago, but I don’t think it was ever
replaced. Making a left onto High from Hazel is practically impossible these
days.
Related: I’ve noticed a lot more traffic coming along St. Clair from the bypass
at the top of the hill on Hazel, where Hazel makes a dog-leg. I wonder if
Google Maps is directing people to cut through there? It’s not normal. Since
there is no Stop sign at this sort-of intersection, it’s just waiting for a
collision.
Also: can you tell Greg Pister (copied here) how to get onto this list please?
He and his family are my very excellent neighbors!
Thanks very much,
Jessie
