I attend church at St. Michael's Catholic along with about 200 other members. Most of our elderly such as Simona Sabballos, Agustin and Fidela Garcia, all currently 89 years old, are the focus of our request. Honoring and caring for our elderly should be top priority. Thus I ask that CR 477 also known as 24th street along with Ave. K be paved.

H.R. 630 would recalculate and restore retirement annuity obligations of the United States Postal Service, eliminate the requirement that the United States Postal Service pre-fund the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund, place restrictions on the closure of postal facilities, create incentives for the innovation for the United States Postal Service, to maintain levels of postal service

State Representative Dan Branch has introduced House Bill 3520 which would rename 7 miles of US 75, or Central Expressway, in honor of George W Bush. Central is the main artery from downtown to the suburbs, named after the former railroad line that ran between downtown and historic Deep Ellum. To rename this historic stretch of road after a president who has done little if anything significant for this city ignores our local history and compromises our integrity. W may live here now, but he does not represent our fair city. Sign this petition to preserve our cultural history and keep Central Expressway as is.

As you know, Woodmont Orchards and the wooded area along Hovey Road are in the process of being developed. This future development as well as exit 4A WEST, if it is built, have great potential to significantly increase traffic and noise within our neighborhoods. Unfortunately, the study areas of the Traffic Impact Assessment DID NOT include surrounding neighborhoods, like Wedgewood Drive.

We oppose The City of Elkhart Sewer Compact Agreeemnt that uses Assessed Property Value in determining the fee businesses outside the city limits must pay for sewer service the City of Elkhart provides. Businesses outside the city limits should NOT be required to pay a fee that is more than three (3) times the actual sewer fee the business would pay if they resided inside the city limits.

Unless the May Avenue bridge over Northwest Highway (State Highway 3) is replaced in the very near future a catastrophe will occur.

We all pay for these so called "entitlements" These are Paid Benefits Words count...... We need to own this not the Republicans .

The traffic on Redwood Road and Jamison Way will be negatively affected with the development of this project. Local residents and shoppers will be affected with greater traffic, cars backed up blocking intersections and driveways, and dangerous left-hand turns will be required to access the shopping center from both Redwood and Jamison. The safety of elderly pedestrians as well as families with young children and pets in the area will be jeopardized. Parking in the Village will only be increased by 41 spaces, half of which will likely go to employees of the TJ MAXX. The parking lot is already congested and inconvenient; consequently, many patrons and employees of the Village will choose to park along Jamison, a residential street already lacking parking. The parking issues, traffic impact, danger and inconvenience likely to be caused to the area have not been properly addressed in the current proposal approved by the Castro Valley MAC.

Payments made to the Social Security System to withdraw from when wage-earners retire are not "entitlements". Entitlements are actually those expenses that NO ONE paid into. Support President Obama's position on this issue!

The Old Village Historic District Commission guidelines and town ordinance includes porches in the BAR (Building Area Ratio) Requirement for allowable square footage for homes in the Old Village Historic District. The BAR ordinance should be amended because it puts an unnecessary restriction on builders and homeowners in the OVHD. When designing a home people shouldn't have to choose between a bedroom for a child and a front and/or back porch. Porches don't make houses look overly large. Porches are cherished places and historically they are the "ubiquitous feature of the Old Village." Therefore, the Town of Mt. Pleasant should embrace porches as welcome additions especially on Old Village homes. Old Village residents should be encouraged to have porches, not discouraged from them. No other town in the Southeast restricts porches. So let's face it; it's absurd that the OVHDC has this restriction in their BAR ordinance and it needs to be fixed.

The lack of parking for downtown employees is causing massive debt and legal problems for the workers who keep our downtown businesses alive. There should be more easily accessible parking for downtown employees.
