This includes the area of concern to- Vivian Guzman, the resident who is requesting the public appearance and Georgina Valdes, who's email was also sent to the City Manager. Below is a recap of all the traffic calming activity specific to their concerns. In addition, the attached map depicts all the activity related to any installation, requests and/or approvals of traffic calming devices in the Shenandoah neighborhood. First email (Vivian Guzman) - She is the requester of the public appearance and is requesting a new neighborhood study stating the 2005 was outdated: Concern: "Two (2) barricades placed between SW 37th Ave and 32 Ave on SW 16th Street at the end of the cemetery and leading to SW 8th St., How did these residents get this done?" OTM response: o Most likely the resident is referring to La Pastorita temporary barricades placed at SW 16 Street at SW 34 Avenue and SW 11 Street and SW 34 Avenue. o The request came from residents to Commissioner Suarez and the County consented to the placement of temporary barricades with the requirement of a before and after study to quantify the impact of the closure. o Status: the study was performed and discussed with District 4 (D4); further discussion pending the County. Concern: "We are requesting that the city place similar barricades blocking traffic through our neighborhood. We can schedule a meeting and discuss the placement of these barricades. Once the water/sewer project is finally completed, we can, as a neighborhood, discuss a long-term solution, which may include a special taxing district." OTM response: o Any temporary or permanent closure will require the City to endorse the closure through a resolution. The request will then go to the County for evaluation and approval.
