Resident urges city to mark or remove hazardous curb in Spruce Parking Lot
Summary
During public comment, George Tyson described a 20-foot curb in the Spruce Parking Lot (between 10th and 11th Streets, Main and Klamath Avenue) that he called a nighttime hazard after an incident that damaged a vehicle's oil pan and asked the city to mark or remove it.
George Tyson used the public comment period to call the council's attention to a 20-foot-long curb in the Spruce Parking Lot, saying it "adjoins the alley" and is low and often not seen by drivers at night. He said the curb had caught a vehicle and damaged its oil pan, leaving the family stranded, and that he had circulated a photograph to council and staff.
Tyson asked the council to either clearly mark the curb so it is visible to drivers at night or remove it if it serves no purpose. The mayor closed public comment after Tyson's remarks and directed that citizens who provide information that requires further work will be contacted by appropriate staff or scheduled for a future agenda item.
