FROM: THE CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE Julv 15. 1987 SUBJECT: REQUEST THAT EILERS LAME BE CLOSED TO THROUGH TRAFFIC AT LILAC STREET The attached letter and petition was received from residents of Eilers Lane requesting that Eilers Lane be closed to through traffic at Lilac Street.

AMR:JJ COUNCO15 TX"rA.02D Alice M Reimch�e� City Clerk June 8. 1987 Lodi City Council City Hall 221 W. Pine St. Lodi, Ca 95240 Dear Council Members: We, the residents of Eilers Lane, request that Eilers Lane be closed to through traffic at Lilac Street. Eilers Lane is a designated local street, and, as such, should provide access primarily for the residents of Eilers Lane. Currently, however, Eilers Lane is functioning as a collector street. This situation is due to the elimination of a segment of Lilac St. connecting to Turner Road at Lower Sacramznto Road with the development of the Woodlake North Subdivision; and, equally important, because the Woodhaven Lane/Chestnut St. bridge has not been constructed. Many Woodbridge residents use Eilers Lane when traveling to Lodi and are driving through our neighborhood at excessive speeds. The main reason for our request is the safety of our, children. There are 20 homes on Eilers Lane and about as many children, most of whom are grammar school age or younger. In a related matter, the principal of the Woodbridge School appeared before you on June 3,1987 and expressed his concern about the safety of the children going to school. Action is being taken to stripe three crosswalks and to hire a crossing,guard. Closing Eilers Lane:>at Lilac St. would not only protect the safety of our children, but also the children going to the Woodbridge School. z Attached is a signed petition requesting the closure of Eilers Lane at Lilac St. and also a sketch for your information which includes one possible solution. We would welcome the opportunity to appear before you to personally express our concerns. Your consideration in this matter is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, The Eilers Lane Residents PETITION We, the undersigned residents of Eilers Lane, request that Eilers Lane be closed to through traffic at Lilac St. NAME DATE ADDRESS CHILDREN'S AGES L 6, 1 -i -e� L/ — sQpatur6 -Print ra -� xgnatur P�� t•in Signature raft ure LYNN �1er5 Pin Agnaure Print 1 rA 2 t& - � '51gna ure — Print r, 4-icg:i!�n!al�ure� _•_��-tom au Z3o5F,%�GYs^ 1(o mm. y P5 17 Y e0: - Page 2 of 5 We, the undersigned residents of Eilers Lane, request that Eilers Lane he closed to through traffic at Lilac St. NAMF Z' x."�- Q--Z-'� 31gWpre Print •ygnat re r i n �'t `- —Z- Signature Print.
