Description

We are teachers at The Young School, we walk from the school to the kings contrivance village center. For one block we do not have any sidewalk, during the summer, we can walk on the grass next to the road but during the winter months we are unable to walk safely because of either ice, or snow. Also trees and other foliage cover a lot of the sidewalk once it begins on Guilford Rd., from Kindler Rd. to Eden Brook Drive, the trees go over the sidewalk and the sidewalk itself is very narrow about three feet wide. It is a dangerous walk being so narrow of a sidewalk and the trees covering it now and other foliage make it necessary to walk on the road where cars are driving very fast. Please at a minimum have the county cut back the trees and foliage and consider adding a sidewalk to The Young School so that we can walk safely. This was initially set up as an industrial complex but has now been rezoned. Considering that it is a school this should be of priority if possible. It is also worth noting that there is a bus stop in front of the school on Guilford Rd. but there is no sidewalk or safe area for people to stand in to wait for the bus. During the winter it is dangerous if there is ice or snow.Thank you in advance for your time and consideration in reviewing our request. -The Young School Teachers and Staff
