Summary

I am writing to ask for your support in my request for the continuation of the placement of a school crossing guard at the intersection of College View Avenue and Highbourne Road. In consultation with Oriole Park Jr. Public School’s administration and caregivers in the community, I moved a letter in January 2024 to install a crossing guard at the intersection of College View Avenue and Highbourne Road. Since the crossing guard’s installation, my office has received positive feedback about how the crossing guard has improved pedestrian visibility and safety at this busy intersection.

 

This letter ensures that the crossing guard will remain at this intersection serving the community.
