MSA reusable face mask cartridges - new out of package - $15 for pair
by David Anglero 19 Jul '20

19 Jul '20

Hello All Pair of filters for bayonet style MSA half masks. I just opened them in hopes that they would fit my nem 3M mask. They do not. These P100 filters have a part number 815300, but it looks like they changed the part number and it is closest to this listing: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001VXVU2C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_9TifFb4ZZ8QEV I'm looking for $15 for the set since they have been opened. Any takers? Daveanglero(a)gmail.com

Large dog bed
by Andrew Hayhurst 19 Jul '20

19 Jul '20

I bought this in Nutmeg for my dog and it is way too big for my dog or the space. If anyone needs a large dog bed (4'x3') let me know and I’ll put it on my porch on Mellon St. My dog laid on it once.

N. Euclid Neighborway Update & Public Meeting on 7/30
by Highland Park Pittsburgh, PA 19 Jul '20

19 Jul '20

Hello Neighbors, On Friday 7/17, DOMI had an informal public meeting at one of the traffic circles. Now that the pilots are in place, they can watch how cars and other vehicles navigate them and also study other implementation issues. We got to watch the Fire Department test their largest, least nimble type of vehicle which was able to navigate the circle without problems so long as cars weren't parked on the corners; this limitation also exists without the circles. DOMI will consider signage, striped "bump-outs" at the corners (painted on the road), and/or enforcement to remind people that they are not allowed to park that close to the corners. We also watched a bus navigate it with no problems. The snow plows will be testing them soon. DOMI also informed us that they have a group who will be out looking at the sites from the perspective of those with disabilities, including a specialist who works with visually impaired children at PPS, someone who designs wheelchairs, and someone who uses a wheelchair. In terms of signage, they are aware that some of the signs are too low and could be a hazard for people who are visually impaired. Those signs will be moved. Additionally, they are researching other signs to clarify right of way and circle navigation. There have been some concerns that people still speed through the circles. Once the pilot is complete, if they become permanent, there will be circles added at additional intersections which should help reduce speeds since they break up drivers' site lines (in other words, the street no longer looks like a long unbroken stretch of asphalt that drivers consciously or unconsciously feel more comfortable speeding on). And the flowers are in -- thank you to all the volunteers who helped and/or agreed to help with planting, transporting, and watering! Finally, DOMI is hosting another public Zoom meeting to get more input at 6pm on Thursday, July 30th. They will review the pilot’s findings and the updated proposal for the neighborway. Feedback is still welcome! Here is the link to the Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/2038679006276030/ Here is the direct link to register on Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_WJZK4ADxRe-8_iVBKYIvjw?fbclid=I… Thanks for all your interest and feedback! The circles are a great way to increase safety on our streets but we want to make sure they are installed in a way that addresses the needs and concerns of the community. Hopefully we are getting there! Stephanie Walsh HPCC President -- *Highland Park Community Council* Visit our website by clicking here. <https://hpccpgh.org/>
