I live at 4373 222 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,120 Wickershire Way. Uh, I got a couple of 223 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,519 comments. The first one has to deal with 224 00:11:19,519 --> 00:11:21,200 what's happening in our neighborhoods. 225 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,360 Uh, my neighborhood is the area that 226 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,200 includes Simpson School and Pikneyville 227 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,959 Middle School. So, it's East Jones 228 00:11:26,959 --> 00:11:29,200 Bridge, West Jones Bridge, and Peachree 229 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,680 Corner Circle. Um, basically, 230 00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:36,399 um, there's been some construction all 231 00:11:36,399 --> 00:11:40,000 summer on East Jones Bridge Road. The 232 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,519 only thing I can see that's different, 233 00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:43,200 and supposedly it's going to be finished 234 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:47,760 pretty soon, um, is that the sidewalk 235 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,320 from Wateride down to Jones Bridge Park 236 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,959 has been widened so golf carts can drive 237 00:11:52,959 --> 00:11:56,079 down. But it's basically it's cut us 238 00:11:56,079 --> 00:11:58,959 like I live off West Jones. My 239 00:11:58,959 --> 00:12:00,720 neighborhood has only one entrance and 240 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,839 exit onto West Jones and we're cut off 241 00:12:03,839 --> 00:12:06,480 and it's very difficult to get to um 242 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,040 Engles in that area. 243 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,279 Uh so it's brought a lot of traffic down 244 00:12:11,279 --> 00:12:13,360 West Jones Bridge Road because all the 245 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,760 people who live past me have to go down 246 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,160 West Jones. 247 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,160 Um so it's that's a problem. Then uh 248 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,959 this last month we had the glow race at 249 00:12:24,959 --> 00:12:26,560 night. 250 00:12:26,560 --> 00:12:29,600 Um, basically Saturday night we were 251 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,680 stuck in the house because we couldn't 252 00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:35,600 go out because goes from 8 to 10. The 253 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,079 problem with the glow race is that god 254 00:12:38,079 --> 00:12:39,839 forbid if there's a fire or a heart 255 00:12:39,839 --> 00:12:42,320 attack, it's very and with East Jones 256 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,040 being closed be very hard to get an 257 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,120 emergency vehicle down to our 258 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,160 neighborhoods on West Jones. 259 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,040 Um, now in the future, from what I 260 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,399 understand, Peachy Corner Circle in 261 00:12:56,399 --> 00:12:57,760 front of the day building, they'll have 262 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,399 some sort of like a roundabout, if I'm 263 00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,200 not mistaken. And it seems that's going 264 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,040 to take some construction, too. So, 265 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,440 we'll have another blockage. And again, 266 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,079 my area will have only one way to get 267 00:13:10,079 --> 00:13:12,160 out, East Jones, or to go make a 268 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,959 right-hand turn and go towards the Cab 269 00:13:14,959 --> 00:13:18,560 County on Peach Corner Circle. So, it's 270 00:13:18,560 --> 00:13:20,639 just basically it's the traffic just 271 00:13:20,639 --> 00:13:22,399 seems to be getting bigger and bigger 272 00:13:22,399 --> 00:13:24,720 and more blockage and more construction 273 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,160 and it's getting more difficult to get 274 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,399 out of our area and more and more 275 00:13:28,399 --> 00:13:30,560 traffic 276 00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:33,920 and it just to me and also I don't know 277 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,600 it seems like I'm seeing a lot of 278 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,000 surveyors on Peach Corner Circle. So, 279 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,320 are we going to make Peach Corner Circle 280 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,040 Road and 281 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,120 you know uh three lanes or four lanes? 282 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,800 Is that the plan? I have no idea. 283 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,440 I mean, you guys know because I see a 284 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,920 lot of surveyors there. 285 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,519 And that's basically, you know, it just 286 00:13:55,519 --> 00:13:58,240 seems to be more and more traffic and in 287 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,040 our area, which is a very quiet single 288 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,279 family homes area. But it seems that 289 00:14:03,279 --> 00:14:04,480 with as we have more and more 290 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,120 apartments, we need more and more lanes, 291 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,440 more and more traffic, 292 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,240 which is not good. 293 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,399 And then I I want to make one other 294 00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:17,680 comment that I spoke to uh uh the lady 295 00:14:17,680 --> 00:14:22,639 there, can't see her name, um Ora about 296 00:14:22,639 --> 00:14:24,720 the purchase 297 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,079 of the uh property uh in town center for 298 00:14:28,079 --> 00:14:31,040 $3 and a4 million dollars. Uh I don't 299 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:32,000 know how we're going to pay for it 300 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,360 because it's a bankrupt business and 301 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:34,560 it's empty and I don't know what the 302 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,279 plan is on the deal. It was sort of 303 00:14:37,279 --> 00:14:40,399 surprise a few months ago. So, I have an 304 00:14:40,399 --> 00:14:42,959 excellent idea how to make money to pay 305 00:14:42,959 --> 00:14:44,240 off that $ three and a quart million 306 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,560 dollar what, however we use the money, 307 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,600 loan, whatever, reserves.
