We have been residents of High Meadow subdivision for 40 years and have watched our property taxes go higher and higher and our streets and curbs get worse and worse. They are now in an embarrassing , dilapidated and dangerous condition. We feel that the resurfacing of our streets should become a priority n Kirkwood's agenda.

We have repeatedly requested to resurface/repave our High Meadow Subdivision for years from the street department ... to no avail. We need ALL the neighbors to sign the petition.

There is a low area on the street in front of our house. After any amount of rain a large puddle of water collects. There is often standing water on that par of the street. The street has deteriorated in that area.

Repavement is decades overdue. The patchwork of city and utility repairs have made the road dangerous and unsightly.

Replacement of street pavement is badly needed not just that gravel stuff that ruins the bottom of our vehicles.

The Average Resident of High Meadow pays in excess of $7,000 a year in property taxes....Kirkwood has collected enough money from the residents to warranty a new Street...........we are the last street to see a snow plow every time it snows...and as it sits right now...looks like we are last one to get a new street/curbs.

Our streets are in very bad condition. I have 4 children who have all fallen off their bikes because of the unevenness and sloppy patch work. Our curbs are also falling apart. I had a friend who says that our streets totally turn her away from Kirkwood. I do not understand why Sunny Drive off of Lindemann have already received new concrete streets and their neighborhood is newer than ours...we cannot even get blacktop!!!

I like to walk/run the neighborhood, but it worries me that a I will fall or twist an ankle with the many pot holes. I love the neighborhood and don't want to exercise elsewhere because of the condition of the streets. We deserve beautiful streets to go along with this beautiful neighborhood.

It is very embaressing when guests comment on what terrible roads we have. It reflects on our city. They are substandard for our area. In the 40 years we have lived here,they were never resurfaced.

Our streets are truly unsatisfactory. Patching is temporary at best. Please bring our street surface up to the high standards all residents should/have enjoyed!

The most fixing to our street that I can recollect is the Tar and Gravel routine!!! That was at least 20 years ago!!! With all the Tax money the City of Kirkwood receives from our subdivision alone demands an answer to our petition!!!

The streets have never been re-surfaced. Once they put down oil and covered it with gravel which is WORSE than nothing as the oil and gravel are carried down the driveway into into the home for more than a month.

My wife and I have lived in the High Meadow Subdivision for 40 years and were among its first residents. During that time the streets (Grassy Ridge Road, Woodfin Court and the south side of Rieth Terrace) have received almost no attention regarding repairs. If my memory is correct, only once during that time was a new (thin) layer of asphalt and gravel put on the streets, and that was probably 20 years or more ago. Except for a few isolated patch jobs, the curbs have never been repaired. The current condition of the streets in our neighborhood is completely inconsistent with what one would expect from a quality neighborhood in Kirkwood.

Our street repaving is years overdue.

Our streets are in deplorable condition. With no sidewalks , small children walking to the bus stop at the entrance to the neighborhood must walk through large, lengthy worn down trenches, massive potholes and constant puddles. The sides of the street have loose gravels from the half-hearted attempts by the city to put a band aid on the street problem making it unsafe for bikes and scooters. The 29 children in our neighborhood deserve to be able to walk, run, bike and play safely.
