Re: Safety At Town Crosswalks
Dear Mr. Pearson:
This letter is in reference to our November 14, 2000 letter to former Regional
Director Craig Siracusa regarding concerns over pedestrian safety at Town
crosswalks. To the best of our knowledge, no action was ever taken.
The Supervisor and the Town Board recently requested that the Commission
spearhead another review of this safety issue in concert with the NYS
Department of Transportation with particular emphasis on improved signage
and stripping. Commissioner Lt. Martin Flatety has identified all the crosswalks
in Southold Town as per enclosed list.
The Commission would very much appreciate the opportunity to discuss this
review with you. Please contact me at your earliest opportunity to arrange such
a meeting.
Thank you for your anticipated attention to this request for a safer Southold.
Sincerely,
cc: Supervisor Joshua Y. Horton
