School official asks Glenburn to extend no-parking zone, install flashing lights for drop-off safety
Summary
Guest Larry Derr asked the council to extend a no-parking zone on Oakley Drive by 10 feet on each end, to consider five timed flashing lights for drop-off/pick-up, and to publish new restrictions in the city newsletter and online; the school will research costs and possible grants.
During old business on June 3, guest Larry Derr described traffic-safety concerns near the school and asked the council to extend the existing yellow no-parking zone on Oakley Drive by 10 feet at each end.
Derr also proposed partnering with the city to install five flashing lights on timers to warn drivers during student drop-off and pick-up. He said the school will investigate costs and potential grant funding and will post information about any new restrictions on its Facebook page; the city agreed to publicize changes on the newsletter and website.
Council members did not take a binding vote at the meeting but asked Derr to return with cost estimates and grant options for formal consideration. The topic will remain on the council’s agenda for future meetings.
