This email acknowledges receipt of your email to the City Council,the <br /> City Manager and City staff. <br /> Thank you again for your interest in the City of Pleasanton. <br /> Sincerely yours, <br /> Ellen Holmgren,Administrative Assistant City of Pleasanton <br /> Original Message <br /> From:Y S <br /> Sent: Friday, March 17, 2017 4:24 PM <br /> To: Mayor and City Council<citycouncil @cityofpleasantonca.gov> <br /> Subject: Restore Owens Dr. <br /> To Pleasanton City council <br /> Attention:Mayor <br /> Thank you for agreeing to start the preliminary design to restore the Owens drive. <br /> Regarding your decision to collect more data points,they are 'actual people'suffering daily. <br /> It's not just a simple quantitative measure of data points, as it can't measure the dangers we and pedestrians are facing. <br /> I work on Owens drive just beside the narrowed lane and live in the nearby neighborhood. I can see the choked traffic all <br /> the time and specially during peak hours . It's impossible to try to get into the street without waiting for 5 mts.With the <br /> incoming pedestrians from the Bart on iron horse trail too. It's strange to note how the city approved this extreme <br /> narrowing of the lane on such a high traffic zone from Bart and then people taking the freeway from Hacienda drive and <br /> not to talk about the traffic from the big offices on Owens drive . It's a hazard for children trying to bike or pedestrians <br /> alike.The continuous traffic jams create pollution too. <br /> We have traffic issues at Bernal and First Street, which was voted unanimously for improvement/widening;we have <br /> many pedestrians in downtown too. <br /> Hence by the same logic, Owens Drive needs widening ASAP.We can't have 2 set of standards. <br /> 1 <br />
