Dear Mayor, Since the expansion of the road on Almond Dr., backing out from my driveway posed an everydsy hazzard.Before the area wa subdivi- ? dad into a single family housing units, Almond dr, was a small country road. With the onset of the improvements, 'the road was ` widened except with wto country properties which were left untouch ed; our property snd next to ours own by Nis Sofie kahorney.with part of the road widened and part untouched,vehicle.s parked along- side caused a double parking effect that blocked my view in hack' fng out everyday. (see attached diagram). I'vie been trying to ig r ore the situation although it was an av�!ryday hit or miss driving C ondition, Today, I was almost h it by a big passenger Van due to'. f ailure of seeing, it coming. Ion bringing this to your attention for something must be done to correct the situation, It w i 11 be very helpful if you widen the'road on Adis, Nahorny's'property. I'm hoping that nothing tragic w i 11 happen-.; But if it w i 11 be other- wise, I!m holding the city responsible for everything.
