I wanted to send you follow up email regarding my MAJOR concern regarding the safety of property owners along Hector street where we would be responsible for snow and ice removal from the sidewalk. This portion of Hector Street can be extremely dangerous. I have lived at 101 Oakwood Lane for 11 years and I have watched cars and trucks during periods of snow and it control. This portion of Hector Street can be extremely dangerous, due to all the turns, steep incline, and speed changes near this location. It's not worth putting any property owner's safety at jeopardy if a car were to skid off the road or not be able to stop due to the snow/ice conditions. None of us should be required to remove snow and ice since it would be putting us at risk for injury or death. if snow removal due to the risk to our safety.

Green Street Ithaca, NY 14850 Thank you for adding this item to the agenda for the 5/15/18 monthly Board of Public Works meeting. Redesign as outlined below. 1. Number I concern is parking: The current proposal is to remove ALL of the parking on the east side of the street —which is 72 spaces AND to remove 20 of the 64 existing spaces on the west side of the street — including 3 immediately in front of our house. The removal of the 20 on the west side is because of a bus island — which has already been approved. levels of 136 spaces. As it is now the parking is often full. University Ave is a unique neighborhood. a. There are no side streets; we cannot park anywhere but, on the street, or in a driveway. b. Many of the houses do not have any off-street parking. Some of these houses are multiunit properties — without a driveway at all. Examples: 402 University Ave: 2 apartment units, 5 bedrooms — no parking, no driveway, 512 University Ave: 2 apartment units, 6 bedrooms — no parking, no driveway. These are just 2 •' There are several mores houses like this on the street. c. The steep grade of University Ave impacts how much off-street parking could ever be added. Even houses with driveways/curb cuts cannot use the driveways 12 months of the year because of the grade. Our single car driveway is very steep — and is not useable during winter months. I was once in a minor accident when I tried to back out of my driveway and the car slid and hit the wall as I was backing out. d. University Ave is a historic district, which limits what can be built — including off street garages • driveways. Currently we are unable to make changes — (i.e. to put in a larger garage without getting approval from the ILPC). The only way to put in more parking on our property would be to remove the current structure which is not in keeping with the mission of the ILPC. Because of our concern about the parking on our street, we asked about getting a 2nd curb cut — and the city said they were unlikely to approve a 2nd curb cut even though our curb cut is only useable for part of the year. e. Aside from street parking — there is no other parking in the area. I have been told that I initial proposal was to have no parking on University Ave at all. It was proposed that residents could park in a Cornell lot at the top of University Ave, I '• •'. and spoke with Helen Steh who is a manager in the transportation department — who did not know about the University Ave project AND confirmed that I OILM IWI'Sw I have been told that if parking is removed on the east side of the street, the remaining parking would be permitted for residents. I would argue that 44 spaces (even if permitted) would not 2ccommodate even the current residents. 2. Power poles should remain on the east side ► the street. We were told that the poles must be moved or buried to accommodate the bike lane. There is only housing on the west side of the street; the power poles were put on the east ♦' originally for this obvious reason. This is a historic district — and the city should avoid putting power poles within 8 feet of • when there is an option to leave the •.i where there are no • When Eric Hathaway presented to the • commission last month, he said that the city does not want to move the power poles in front of the houses — but that it is up to NYSEG. -1 would argue that NYSEG i•' not want to if the power poles at all. it would •` cheapest for them to keep the existing poles in • -BPW and planning should pursue a design where the bus stop is located further • at the Baldwin Memorial stairs which reclaims unused •. and I believe would allow the poles to remain in place and still accommodate a bike lane and a bus island. -if the power lines/poles must be moved to accommodate the bike lane the power lines should be buried; there is a precedent for this — as the power lines are buried on •, Ove. 3. The Bike Lane A traffic study should be done to determine how much the bike lane will be used. . Current I believe in great part because • the grade — there are not many bikers on this street. Eve if there is a bike lane — the grade would be very difficult for the majority of bikers. The vas majority of bikers currently wait for the bus and put their bike on the front of the bus. The current plan to remove 66% of parking spots on the street is primarily to accommodat very few •' a still unknown number of cyclists. I 4. The Traffic Island at 320 University Ave The reason 20 spaces are being removed or, the west side of the street is to accommodate the bike lane and the traffic island. First, the street cannot afford to lose so much parking. Second, the majority of people waiting at this bus stop are park and ride Cornell students/employees who park on University Ave all day and then take the bus. If there are only 44 parking spots on the street— there will be no need R.. a bus stop at this location as park/ride will no longer exist. For this reason, I believe that the traffic island and the bus stop could be removed altogether. At a minimum, the traffic island could and should be moved 300 feet south to the Cornell steps because: 1. there is an existing cross walk at this location. 2. there is flat protected ground for a covered waiting area and bike racks. 3. fewer parking spaces would need be removed from the west side of the street. 8 spaces would be removed instead of 20 because the steps are across the street from a private parking lot. 4. the bus lane would be better accommodated in this location because downh traffic would be diverted toward a parking lot — rather than a house. I 5. the bus stop would be more centered between 2 existing bus stops — at Ravenwood and the church at Cascadilla creek gorge 6. There is an existing sidewalk connection to west campus at this location. We have spoken with Matt Yarrow (TCAT Service Development Manager) who has no obiections to this location change. 5. Finally, I understand that the City of Ithaca is now taking requests for traffic calming projects as part of the traffic calming program for 2019. Removing parking from the east side and much of the west side of the street, especially on the south bound (downhill) side of the road clearly has the potential to lead to higher traffic speeds. For this reason, I think this proposal is contrary to the city's stated goal of promoting slower city traffic speeds and promoting traffic calming. Thank you very much for your attention. We understand and agree that University Ave needs to be repaved. We feel that the scope of the current proposal is too extensive for the existing space. We very much hope the city is open to making changes to the current proposal which will not so dramatically alter the quality of life for residents of University Ave. We would argue that our proposed changes (not movinj lower•o es et still accommodating, the bik trnffii- 1"MIOW14111411 Sincerely, Mariah Pleretti, M.D. and Michael Pieretti 320 University Ave Ithaca, NY 14850 MM999f9tg!2RM1[!&M pierettidesign@gmail.com NEW WHEREAS, The City has received a request from Andrew Zepp, Director of the Finger Lakes Land Trust (FLLT), for a commitment of $11,250.00 from the City of Ithaca's Six Mile Creek Watershed Protection Fund to support work associated with the donation of a perpetual conservation easement on the Walcott property, in the Town of Dryden, Tompkins County, and 11PITAEREAS, the application meets the four criteria established in the Common Council Resolution "City Watershed Conservation Easements Processes" passed on March 4, 2015, 1�,- , id WHEREAS, the Superintendent of Public Works and Assistant Superintendent of Public Works —Water and Sewer have reviewed the application and believe that the property is of high value for protection of the watershed, and WHEREAS, the Board of Public Works discussed the request on 02/20/18 for the provision of $11,500.00 to support work associated with the donation of a perpetual conservation easement to the FLLT by Charles and Jane Walcott, now therefore be it RESOLVED, That the Board of Public Works hereby supports Common Council's authorization of the Mayor, on advice on the City Attorney, entering into a funding agreement with the FLLT by which the City provides $11,500.00 to the FLLT and the FLLT contractually commits to the preservation in perpetuity of the Walcott property, thus protecting the water quality of the watershed flowing into the City's water filtration plant, and be it further RESOLVED, That the Board authorizes funding in support of the same to be drawn from the Water Fund, Water Shed Accounts account number F8321-5700, in an amount not to exceed $11,500.00.
