Lori,
I agree with the need to extend Eisenhower north to Mountainview, if it's
topographically possible. As Michael Riehm showed on Tuesday, a grid
pattern encourages dispersion of traffic instead of concentrating it all
on collector streets, and that's a logical place to extend the grid.
I would also like to see Mountainview Park expanded -- IF we could create
a more traditional type of park space (a la East City Park). We need to
convince the parks and rec powers that be that there are more parks needs
than just ballfields. Perhaps this could be an item for the city Parks &
Recreation Commission... does anyone know any members of that group?
And finally, the city needs a long-range capital plan that would address
not only parks, but street improvements and public facilities (a new
swimming pool?) and set priorities for them.
