PUBLIC INPUT 29 <br /> 30 <br />Linda Taylor, 5711 Quincy Street, stated that she is here today to ask the Council for their help in 31 <br />making the crosswalk areas across Highway 10 safer for the children who have to cross over to 32 <br />Edgewood. She expressed concerns about the safety stating that there is a real need for a 33 <br />crossing bridge or safety guards during school hours so that the children can cross safely. She 34 <br />stated that her son walks to school between 6:30 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. and she wants him and other 35 <br />children to be safe. She explained that her son, along with several other children cross at 36 <br />Edgewood and the light only stays on long enough to get half way across Highway 10 noting that 37 <br />the easiest route would be to cross at County Road H and Highway 10. She asked the Council to 38 <br />add this item to a future agenda for discussion and resolution. She stated that she has several 39 <br />parents with her tonight who are also in support of her concerns adding that she is willing to do 40 <br />whatever they need to help address the safety issues. 41 <br /> 42 <br />Mayor Marty acknowledged her concerns stating that he has timed this light and the change over 43 <br />from green to yellow is 12 seconds if the button is not pushed for pedestrians. He stated that the 44 <br />Council has discussed this issue before and plans to discuss it again in the near future. 45
