of her item from the agenda tonight. Mrs. Schumacher stated that the basis of the decision-making

intersection.
Stacey Schonfeld stated that there are 13 families within a one-block radius of this intersection and
asked that the Council review this to think proactively about how they can keep their kids safe.
