Please caution blind neighbors about roundabouts/traffic circles on N. Euclid
by janet jai 06 Jul '20

06 Jul '20

As you are probably aware, 4 roundabouts/traffic circles will be created on N. Euclid starting today (Monday, July 6). In the public meeting on June 24, DOMI (the Department of Mobility and InfrastructureI) said they discussed these roundabouts/circles with the City-County Taskforce on Disabilities and that they are ADA compliant and fine. However, when I contacted the Taskforce Chairperson, attorney Paul O’Hanlon, he wrote (June 25): “DOMI never, ever talked with the City-County Task Force on Disabilities about these traffic circles.” Paul also said: "There is a study..(link)..that seems to show danger to blind pedestrians” but he hadn’t finished fully researching all this yet. Paul also sent me a link to a paper by the FHWA (Federal Highway Administration), which says the following re roundabouts: "Pedestrians with vision impairments may have more difficulty crossing roundabouts due to the following key factors: Pedestrians with vision impairments may have trouble finding crosswalks because crosswalks are located outside the projection of approaching sidewalks and the curvilinear nature of roundabouts alters the normal audible and tactile cues they use to find crosswalks. Roundabouts do not typically include the normal audible and tactile cues used by pedestrians with vision impairments to align themselves with the crosswalk throughout the crossing maneuver. The sound of circulating traffic masks the audible cues that blind pedestrians use to identify the appropriate time to enter the crosswalk (both detecting a gap and detecting that a vehicle has yielded).” Given this info, I think it would be good to alert blind neighbors who may not know about the roundabouts that they may need to be extra cautious when trying to cross an intersection where there is a roundabout. Wanting all of us to be safe, janet jai, MLA

PRIVATE PARTIES OF 4-6 PEOPLE at CHOP, WOK & TALK!
by Dorothy Tague 06 Jul '20

06 Jul '20

Greetings, Chop, Wok & Talk’s private parties for June worked well and everyone felt comfortable being with a few people they knew rather than attending a class with strangers. And, they were excited to get out of their homes, socialize and cook a fabulous meal not served in styrofoam containers😊 We were hoping to resume our regular classes in August but due to the ‘surge’ in Covid 19 cases we are just continuing private parties, at this time. Attached are menu offerings for July and August. Round up a few friends/relatives and come have an enjoyable afternoon or evening as there is not many other things to do. Remember that eating is “essential”. Just call/email for some available dates...412-362-0679. Stay safe and we hope to see you soon, Dorothy & Staff

Lost little dog, still lost
by Jane Quist 06 Jul '20

06 Jul '20

Jasper ran off during fireworks from the farmhouse at Highland Park. He is still missing and has not been sighted since Friday night. He had a harness and leash with a doggy bag attachment on it. I think that his leash has caught on something and has prevented his movement. He is tan in color and weighs only about 18 pounds. Photo will be sent upon request. Thank you for your help in locating. Jane 623.202.2198

Seeking Recommendations for Moss Removal / Roof Cleaning
by Rob Nichols 06 Jul '20

06 Jul '20

Hi Neighbors, I am looking for recommendations for companies that can clean my roof and remove moss. I have a lot of moss growing on my roof and it needs to be removed. I've found many DIY ways to remove moss from a roof but I'd rather find a reputable company that does this and pay them to climb up on my roof. Has anyone dealt with moss growing on your roof and does anyone have recommendations for companies that can clean a roof and remove moss? I would greatly appreciate any recommendations. Best, Rob Nichols 412-432-6122
