  • Harmony talked to the city about the crossing at Quail Valley Road/Little Rock
    • Right now it has flashing lights. The neighborhood decided to make it a Pedestrian crosswalk. The city is monitoring the crosswalk to see if it meets the requirements to make it a school crossing. At this time it does not meet the requirements.
    • It would be good to make a crossing by the seminary building. The closest crosswalk is a quarter of a mile away from the seminary building.
    • In the summer both sides of Canyon Road will have sidewalks
  • Jeff is going to find out who the Stake President is for the church by Edgemont to see if we can get a key and use the church as a reunification site for the school incase of an emergency evacuation.
