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 Oriole Parkway and Gormley Avenue.

 

In consultation with the Oriole Park community, I moved a letter in January 2024 and January 2023 to install a crossing guard at the intersection of Oriole Parkway and Gormley Avenue due to the safety concerns raised by the community. Since the crossing guard’s installation, my office has received positive feedback about how the crossing guard has improved the community’s sense of safety.

 

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