Chairman Fortier opened the public hearing for the following discussion: : Rov Bullock — 1889 N. Silverwood St. — Many of us exit on Buckeyewood onto Cambridge St. Sports programs and other events at the school require or allow people to park all the way up to this corner, I consider this to be very dangerous because you just can't see oncoming traffic. If you pull out far enough to see oncoming traffic and somebody else comes up behind you there's no way you can back up, you're stuck. Chairman Fortier closed the public hearing and returned the ,item to the Commission for further discussion and a motion. �r, Tape#CTC-23.06 of this City Traffic Commission meeting is available for your review. `�'* , Please contact the Recording Secretary at(714)744-5536 in this regaxd,advance notice is appreciated. �Printed on Recvcled Paner t;::;+ € t:::::::;, ::�: �_ �~:'>`; ; ;.��—`�;>`:,4 � _� �::«a �:``,;:; ....�.. �:;a,v.��...._:�:� '.:"L?.'A.:R.R�',':�S'�::.,�.�_'':.�.cy'S�P£'4Y..:.

Request for the installation of red curb markings on the east side of the driveway serving 3004 Ne Rippling Creek Dr. Marcel Svoboda 3004 N. Rippling Creek Dr. Orange CA 92865 Oral- presentation is based on the written staff report; please refer to your copy. Chairman Fortier opened the public hearing for the following discussion: Martha Franco — 3010 N. Riqplinq Creek Dr. — He's diminishing our right to use public property. Basically he wants to privatize his own property for his own selfish motives. There really is no reason why he needs that curb painted red, as an immediate neighbor when we have family get together we might be there for maybe half and hour or so. There are several large families in the neighborhood and if you were to do so we'd have people parking around the block just because of his satisfaction of having a red curb. It wouldn't really benefit the neighborhood because then everyone else would want his or her curbs painted as well. It's taking away my right to park in front of his house I don't �,.�, Tape#CTG23.06 of this City Traffic Commission meeting is available for your review. �# �'L Please contact the Recording Secretary at(714)7445536 in this regard,advance notice is appreciated. �Printed on Recvcled Paber Minutes of a Regular Meeting—City Traffic Commission—September 17,2003 Pg.3 want his friends or family to park on my side of the street just because he painted his sidewalk red, it's not fair to us either. This has been a good neighborhood until this man moved in. From the first day he moved in he's basically terrorized the neighborhood; he's made threats to the chi{dren. Chairman Fortier closed the public hearing and returned the item to the Commission for further discussion and a motion. Commissioner Petronella— It's a residential street, it doesn't seem to be a safety issue, I really don't know why it's on the Agenda. Chairman Fortier— I went out there and I could see absolutely no prob{em, I didn't even see a car parked out there. It seemed like one side the egress side it's very difficult for cars to even get in there. Commissioner Beif — f visited this street in the evening when you'd expect a lot of residential cars to be there and there were hardly any cars on the street at that time. ACTION: Denied the request.
