As some of you may know a tragedy occurred at the Art Walk on July 15th. A child was run over while a person was parking their car. Art Walk has become too crowded and dangerous to allow cars on the street. I propose to send this petition to the city council for the streets to be closed during art walk hours between Spring St. and Main St. from 2nd St. to 8th St.

100 signatures on the board. This city clearly feels the same way about our safety.

Its way to packed down there. Cars have no business driving through that many people. Close the streets down before someone else gets hurt.

How many more kids need to get hit before the city does something? Stop being cheap and close the streets!
