Description

School crosswalks and intersections are overgrown with vegetation at/over the curb. This is vegetation in the public right of way that is higher than school children. Today, I saw two teachers with over 20 students using the Waldenwood and Penberton crosswalks to St. Paul School.
In a 1998 letter, the city administrator stated that he would enforce the ordinance and maintain appropriate visibility in the King School neighborhood, yet this remains a chronic problem, endangering students and adults.
This creates unacceptable liability for the city, given that the city is aware of the dangerous conditions. With the construction of Earhart, more people will be using these crosswalks to access St. Paul School. Please address immediately. Thank you
