Dear Sir:

t have been asked to write on behalf of the parents of Mary
Hill Elementary School in regards to our growing concerns
about the increasing traffic and gafety problems around our
school, particularly on Humber Cras. We have been working
with che staff, parents and local regidants to address the
problem and attached is a copy of a notice we send home
quarterly to our school parents. Although our efforts have
been met with some success in the past, with the ever
growing school population we feel we now need some
a$Ssistance from the City.

Briefly stated, here are our concerns and possible he

ee

solutions:

1. Major congestion around the school, particularly at 9
A.M. & 3 P.M., and in the evenings during sports games (1.4.
softball season).

2. Speeding

3, People blocking residents’ access to wait for children,
ed

often not bothering to turn off their motors.

4, Engine and anti-freeze leaks in front of residents!
homes.

S, Double parking, thereby blocking the entire street of any
kind of traffic flow.

Solutions:

1. Post "Children Playing / Playground " and "School " signs
to remind people to slow down. Robert Hope Park 1s adjacent
ro the school and there is no sign on Humber Cres. €6
indicate this.
