Subject: [Neighbors] Security Cams on Lead/Coal
Have you noticed the APD security cams on all the major intersections now on Lead and Coal, at least as far as I have looked up and down Lead/Coal? Does anyone know what they are about? Is it for apprehending speeders, red light runners, to track stolen cars, monitor traffic flow, catch break-in criminals or noise monitoring? Are they monitored live? Can we access the URL for the cameras? The one at Bryn Mawr has a clear view of my house and back yard. Lots of implications with these cams. Who came up with this and what is the program called and how was it paid for? Supposedly the Lead/Coal rebuild ended and the money for things like this.
I hope we get more trees with the wider sidewalks. We need more shade with the changing climate patterns. I was opposed to cutting the trees on Central for ART as we need more shade on the hot pavement, not less trees.
Mid-block crossings are necessary for sure. Thanks Pat for that. And we need pedestrian crossing markers now on Lead and Coal to alert drivers speeding along that there are people living in this area who need to cross Lead/Coal in mid-block too. The north/south streets crossing Lead/Coal have old faded out white stop crossing lines that are too far back often for drivers on streets crossing Lead/Coal.
We still don’t have the “Lights timed to posted speed” on Lead/Coal that were there before the rebuild… what 5 years ago now?
Have you notice the almost no sidewalk area along Central in front of the big new apartment building at Carlisle and Coal? How did that ever get approved?
I hope in the new money for these renovations the city can find money to move north ten feet the street light pole and community watch sign they put in the driveway access area of my home with the Lead/Coal rebuild. I have been told there is no money for this nor changing our the live oak trees blocking my solar access on the Southside of my house along Coal, but there is lots of money for otters and other favored big projects.
