MOTION BY ALDERMAN LOPEZ FOR FINAL PASSAGE OF R-21-179, BY ROLL CALL
ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Lopez
| just would like to comment. Important that we pay attention to pedestrian safety. There was a woman who was struck
by a vehicle this past weekend. It's a big city. It's difficult to identify all the locations that can use crosswalks like this. If
people see areas in their neighborhoods and they're interested in improving traffic safety, please reach out to us so that
we can help enable. I'm hoping that this funding in this project will be able to improve safety in areas that we've already
been working on.
President Wilshire
