I think this is the biggest fear of having cars go through your development past your home. As I <br /> said before I know many of the people who live up on Middleton and many people wave as they go <br /> past, so it is not the people who are the issue, or even their driving past my or your home that is th <br /> issue, but it is the carelessness and speed with which many of them do on a tear to get somewhere <br /> because they are late or in a rush to arrive at home. <br /> One dark winter morning I was outside with my dogs. I have three. Two little ones that have to be <br /> on a lease and a black docile friendly lab that was a Guide Dog for the Blind who had bad elbows <br /> so couldn't pull a harness. I only tell you this to emphasize his disposition. He is very docile and <br /> friendly. I took them out in the front as I do every morning to relieve themselves because my entire <br /> backyard is concrete and they will go quickly for me out front. My black lab must have seen small <br /> animal and ran into the street. A car from up on Middleton, whose windows were iced up except <br /> for the hole in the middle that the driver must have scrapped for himself/herself to see out of. The <br /> driver could not have seen my dog as it was pitch black outside and so is my dog. He missed my <br /> dog by inches. It was a good wake up call for me. Now he wears a reflector whenever he is <br /> outside...and yes, he is not supposed to be off leash so it would have been my fault if he got hit . If <br /> he had gotten hit it would have been a tragedy for everyone involved....dog, me, my family, the <br /> driver of the car, his family. My point is that just because you are the driver may not be seeing <br /> everything. AND he /she was speeding down that darn hill! <br /> That is what I came to say last night but couldn't listen any longer to people professing to have <br /> environmental concerns about a road being built and inadvertently threatening to sue the city ! I <br /> think if you are going to argue something that is personal to you should at least fess up what are <br /> your real concerns. They are scared of the unknown, I understand that. <br /> I was also wondering if you could tell me the outcome of last nights meeting? Was there a vote? <br /> Did anything get resolved? <br /> Thank you for taking time to read this email. <br /> Kindest regards, <br /> Rachel Harold <br /> 2 <br />
