In8lating Problem, lssues, Opportunky (Who, What, Wheq Where, Why): �
No sidewalk currendy exists on N.S. CHRISTIE PL. - Prosperity Ave. to Kennard St.; N.S. ENGLEWOOD AVE. - N. Dunlap St. to
N. Lexington Pkwy. & S.S. HEWTIT AVE. - N. Griggs SL to N. Dunlap St. The present terrnin condition is terribly uneven, muddy
& unsafe for walkers. No driveway at 1918 E. Orange Ave. is causing sesident to drive over next door neighbor's yazd to garage.
AdvanWges If Approved: �
The community will bene£it from this project because it will provide a safe pedestrian route foc its citizens. The sidewalk cont�acts are
done by private contractors generating public sec[or jobs as a result.
DisadvantageslfApproved: � �
The sidewalk consiruction has created negative feedback because of construction procedures & assessments. Property owners
continue to question the assessments. New sidewalk conshuction is 100%a assessable. Having to assess property owners for sidewalk
construction - still reatains a controversial issue.
Disadvarnages I} Not Approved: -
People will continue to walk on unsafe teaain or in the street where traffic speed & volume is lugh. Next door neighbor of 1918 E.
Orange Ave. w9ll see their property decrease in value. �
