Below are the comments/questions that were received during the <br /> neighborhood meeting held on 3/2/22 at the Meadowlark Dairy building at Alviso Adobe Park: <br /> 1. The trail needs more parking. <br /> 2. How is the City going to deal with trespassers and trash? <br /> 3. There have been homeless people in the open space and late night parties. <br /> 4. Concerned about street traffic and congestion. <br /> 5. Illegal parking for the Courdet trail blocks access to adjacent homes and doesn't allow for <br /> fire truck or emergency access. <br /> 6. Not enough parking enforcement on the weekends. <br /> 7. Concerned about safety and overcrowding. <br /> 8. Worries about kids using the trail/open space to do drugs and have sex. <br /> 9. Concerned with police response time (if any) to address reports of crime/trespassing. <br /> 10.The 2 children at the meeting were concerned about the impact of the trail to wildlife and <br /> the ecosystem (as were some adults). <br /> 11 .The City can't contain the trail users. <br /> 12.Concerned about people looking into their backyards and potentially casing some of the <br /> houses to rob them. <br /> 13.Concerned about people accessing their properties from the trail/open space. <br /> 14.One of the neighbors felt that children and adults alike wouldn't enjoy or use the trail. <br /> 15.The neighbors didn't feel that the City held a fair process to allow input on the trail. <br /> 16.The Meadowlark neighborhood is already overly impacted by traffic and trails due to the <br /> Courdet trail. The Meadowlark trail probably wouldn't be that bad if it wasn't for the <br /> Courdet trail also being there — that trail has caused significant disruptions to the lives of <br /> the neighbors. <br /> 17.Courdet trail users are parking in the Alviso Adobe parking lot. <br /> 18.Where can the City put more parking? <br /> ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT P.
