Hello- I’m wanting to know if anyone is still monitoring the Mercy Hospital building site and the Sacred Heart school? There is a City Council mtg. on 2/10 for review of Sacred Hearts requested waiver for erecting oversize name signs at the entrances to their campus. One of the signs would be a stand alone 56 sq ft sign. Is anyone planning to attend this mtg.? We received a Planning Notice of the mtg from the city as we are within 500 ft of the school.
In addition, has anyone complained about the line up of vehicles on both sides of the 4 way stop signs at the entrance of the school on 39th St bet. H and J St.s? Presumably the backup is that they are picking up their children or dropping them off and they are blocked from turning into the SH parking lot because the entrance is blocked by vehicles. Essentially this is creating a dangerous situation on a public thorough fare street as other cars are also exiting at the 3rd stop sign from the I St exit from Mercy parking lots. Vehicles wanting to drive thru then drive around all the backed up vehicles which could create an accident if the I St exit car turns onto 39th St. at the same time. Absolutely an accident waiting to happen.
Hello Jolene: Thank you so much for your alert on the forth coming meeting. I will let our president know and someone will definitely be there. The night before (Feb. 9) we’re having a traffic meeting at Clunie Club House, Sacramento Room 7-8. We already have four “hot spots” to address, but during the Q and A it would be excellent if you could ask the city engineer questions about the Mercy situation.
Jolene, also think about joining up and signing up for our feedburner. We need all the help we can get from citizens like you.
I attend most of the Mercy NAC meetings, Jolene. I brought up the safety issues with the line-up of vehicles on 39th Street back at the November meeting but Sacred Heart is not addressing the problem proactively. I will discuss it again at the next meeting.
