MADAM Chair, question to be to abstain from to 13. Okay. Thank you. Any comments questions? Council Roberts, thank I was just one real quick. I suppressed about this beforehand. I know we're getting a bridge over 82nd Street. Obviously, we've already kind of done some work over the intersection. That's one they hear about a ton of people that when they get to 80 seconds, you're going right back. Is it so dangerous to cross the nickel plate? I was that was a consideration for the proposal to 12 and not, why was not chosen. So we knew that we were
gonna get some funding for the bridge. And so as a temporary measure, we ended crossing people at Signalized intersection on a temporary basis. Wants that signal is installed the bridge is installed. That will be a much easier way for those that are traveling along the nickel plate trail. Was there any thought of doing this temporarily until then or was it just? And have. Not not. Not really not. For this particular area. Again, I think the the idea of installation, the bridge, I think is beneficial for those utilizing the trail itself. But we do recognize there are instances where people do have to cross the street. I think we've got a the signal off to the Wests, new And then off to the east, there's where we have indications for people
can affect cross. Right? Well, and thank you. I I just I know it's 2 or 3 years until the bridge is finally fully complete. I was wondering if maybe we could do that in the interim, but obviously I trust that the engineers there. I thought about all the different angles and thank you very much.

the Chatham Arch area. Inadvertently happen to MISS This of to-go resident. They reached out indicating they had no off-street parking options hardship occurs to the proximity to model works hardship being that there's a lot of people don't battle people do tend to park internal to the subdivision or so.
