This petition is being assembled to reitterate Notice of Dangerous Conditions along Lake Washington Blvd and Lake Street South. These are conditions that the city is fully aware of, including excessive traffic and the conflicts with vehicular ingress and egress onto the boulevard between the Central Business District and Carillon Point.
-
These are unsafe conditions that the city has both the power and the duty to correct. It is the belief of the citizens that the municipality has the responsibility to ensure that the roadways and ingress and egress points are planned, engineered and maintained for the safe use of its citizens and visitors to the city.
===============
We, the undersigned, provide the City of Kirkland with this notice to supplement letters and emails that have been sent over the past several years and which have included comments about the traffic, ingress/egress and safety concerns of the citizens and users of Lake St S / Lake Washington Blvd.
-
We, the undersigned, provide the City of Kirkland with this notice to supplement videos and pictures provided to the city to demonstrate the traffic, ingress/egress and safety concerns of the citizens and users of Lake St S / Lake Washington Blvd.
-
We, the undersigned, provide the City of Kirkland with this notice to supplement letters sent by neighbors to the City of Kirkland Police Department wherein reports of unsafe parking, traffic, illegal turning and ingress/egress conflicts have been reported and the city's attention to correct these conditions has been requested.
-
We, the undersigned, provide the City of Kirkland with this notice to supplement testimony that has been given under oath by neighbors as to the extent of traffic and dangerous ingress and egress conditions along Lake Washington Blvd / Lake Stree South.
-
We the undersigned, provide the City of Kirkland with this notice to supplement neighbor input and expertise in civil engineering, statistical and mathematical modeling and EIS expertise as it relates to faulty conclusions arising from poorly designed traffic studies and "Traffic Concurrency" methodology that does nothing to identify the hazards on Lake St S / Lake Washington Boulevard between downtown and Carillon Point. Again, such testimony has also been entered under oath.
-
We, the undersigned, feel that our prior emails, letters, pictures, videos and relevent expertise have been largely ignored and feel that we have provided sufficient evidence that the traffic studies used by the city are faulty and continue to allow dangerous conditions. These have been clearly demonstrated.
===============
We request that the city act on this notice as you have the power and the duty to remedy these conditions prior to vehicular accident(s) occuring with another vehicle(s) or pedestrian(s), bicyclist(s), or other mishaps that will likely occur if these dangerous conditions are not corrected by the City of Kirkland.
