Q. Prairie and Durum (south entrance) – The street has sunk and accumulates water (blocks sidewalk) – also needs to be cleared more often when snows, people get stuck. (Sept 06)

A. Response from Operations: This will be looked at in the spring.

Prairie is scheduled to be reconstructed in 2007. I will make sure that this section is brought to the attention of administration before proceeding with construction.

Response from Operations: This has been corrected as of October 1st. (Oct 07)

Q . I have a concern re visibility at the existing circle on 34th. Sooner or later, there will be an accident at this circle as drivers cannot see clearly see if anyone is already in the circle before entering the circle. Hedges must be cut if they are close to an intersection so that drivers can see other traffic before entering the intersection. Traffic circles should be no different.

A. I have sent this to operations to get a response.

Response from Operations: We have inspected this and based on the flow of traffic there is no obstruction from these shrubs. (Oct 07)

Q. The intersection of Durum and Neepawa has developed a "speed bump" that crosses Durum. Can we look at getting the city to repair this bump? The same thing happened at Durum and Fife last year and the city repaired it. (Jun 07)

A. Response from Operations: This is on the list and will be completed this summer.

Response from Operations: This has been completed. (Oct 07)

Q . What is the status of the road and sidewalk in front of 30 Ashgrove?

Response from Operations: Completed. (Oct 07)

Q. Why did 26th and Park, Willowdale and Ashgrove and 13th and Park get repaved?

A. Response from Development Services: These locations are being resurfaced under warantee with Zenith Paving. There was premature ware of the surface thus requiring the remediation work. There were several areas throughout the city where this was required. (Sep 07)

A permanent fix was completed in May. (May 07)

Q. It appears as though some people on Fife are not noticing the no parking signs. Was wondering if additional signs could be put up to make it more obvious to residents and guests. (Oct 06)
