<br />Robert Gardner, 2027 South Rene Drive, stated school children are walking on an
<br />unpaved City-County roadway to attend John Adams School, which constitutes a
<br />hazardous situation due to the heavy traffic on Delhi Road. The Mayor explained
<br />the school is located in the City limits and the route taken by the children crosses
<br />County territory and County Officials hav~ been contacted to alleviate the condition.
<br />The Manager stated there is Police patrol five and one-half hours a day and a letter
<br />was sent to the County Board of Supervisors with reference to this hazard prior to
<br />the school opening; a~d the Road Cw~issioner was recommending to the Board of
<br />Supervisors that a black-topped sidewalk be placed on the south side of Delhi Road
<br />and that the Board of Education be requested to participate in the cost. Douglas
<br />Swanson, 2071 South Spruce Street, Aubrey G. Cook, 1422 West St. Andrew Street, ~nd
<br />Mrs. Walter D. Hunt, 1530 West Secrest Way, requested reduction of City and County
<br />speed limits, placement of a foot bridge near the guard rail and the stationing of
<br />a crossing guard at Rene Drive. One of the speakers suggested that school bus
<br />transportation be furnished. The Mayor explained that the City could not furnish
<br />buses for school children but he felt the Board of Education might make available
<br />a bus for the safe transportation of the children.
