>Dear Shoal Creek area residents:
>
>I want to thank all of you for contacting the City to provide your input
>regarding the Shoal Creek Blvd. Transportation Project.  Be assured that
>City staff is hearing and acting upon your concerns.  We are posting signs
>throughout the project area to warn drivers of the presence of the curb
>extensions.  The signs will be up by March 18.  Once these signs are in
>place and some of the curb extensions are complete, including landscaping
>and pavement reflectors, we will begin monitoring driver and cyclist
>response to the improvements.  We will monitor for a period of 
>approximately
>two weeks.  The data gathered will allow staff to draw informed conclusions
>about the safety and effectiveness of the curb extensions.  After the
>monitoring is complete, we will hold a public meeting to answer questions
>and gather input from citizens.  Thus, City staff will not be speaking at
>the Allandale Neighborhood Association meeting on March 23.  We feel it 
>will
>be more productive to meet after we have firm data about the safety and
>effectiveness of the improvements.  We are tentatively looking at 
>scheduling
>the public meeting during the week of April 11, but the actual date and
>location will be forthcoming.  Please feel free to contact me with any
>questions or concerns.  Thanks again for your time and interest in your
>community.
