CA. 96M (200) 3M?411- July b, I Mr. Jack Ronsko Public Works Director City of Lodi 221 W.st Pine Street Lodi, California 95240 Dear Jack: RE: Needham School Crossing. Please accept this letter as a request for closure of Pleasant Aventio in front of Needham School and Needham School Annex (420 South Pleasaht.Street) during school days, between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.tm`(approximately). Needham School will be used as a Middle School (seventh and.eighWh grade) during the coming school year. Tow Middle School program requires. that ..'students change class location at prescrilxd periods during the school day.' Becauso.of the numh.^r of students crossing the street throughout the school day, we feel that closure of a portion of the street during school time:i is a reasonable request. It Is recogn i zed that c 1 osu re may cause some i nconveni encs to ` res i dents on the street; howcvcr, the miry -Mer of residences is limited; there is:g'ood alternate access to the north and south; and there is little through -traffic using the street. Recognizing the dust .,I' laixir, etc. it lr:ls Iw-en suggested tlult .Autlents (or school staff) could move signed barricades into position each morning and remove therm in the afternoon,. If you have any other suggestions for protecting the safety of the children crossing the street, please let me know. I look forward to hearing from you on this request. .loan Starr, ity Planner AICD .WS/Py cc: Rini Alsup RECEIVgD Ili Id.Iowent 1.

For the first month of school until the portables can be occupied, sixth grade students will be located at Washington School with all seventh graders remaining at Needham. As a result there will be an "above -normal" amount of crossing.with approximately 260 students per day crossing Pleasant back and forth between 8:40 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. As I understand the schedule there will be no significant blocks of time when there will be no crossing - this is a middle school; therefore, there will be a steady stream of traffic with peak periods approximately every 40 minutes. When the portables arrive, the sixth grade students will be returned to Needhamin- creasing the school population to approximately 260 students. It is anticipated that the number of crossings will decrease slightly as we have scheduled sixth grad- ers on one side of the street and 7th graders on the other. There are P.E. classes all day with 36 students crossing for each class. Lunch period is 11:45 to 1:22 each day. Please do not hesitate to contact me or Hilda lfentland, the Principal, if you need additional information.
