To provide equal access for kids using public restrooms. As a parent I faced challenges lifting my kids up to the sink. Now, as a grandparent the task is even more difficult. It must be mandated that stores provide clean, safe and stable step stools in each of their public restrooms.

Residents have asked for an asphalt path along the east side of Highway 75 from Saddle Road south to Ketchum. Pedestrian and bicycle safety is a concern in our community, especially during peak seasons. We need your support for this project as we begin discussions with Idaho Transportation Department. Please sign this petition.

I am personally affected by this issue. It has become Vital for ALL seniors!

The Linden Hills neighborhood spent $60,000 and 18 months of neighborhood meetings working with the City to write a Small Area Plan that provides a policy framework to guide developers proposing new buildings. The Linden Hills Small Area Plan is now part of the Minneapolis Plan for Sustainable Growth, which is intended to "protect the character and stability of residential areas within the city and to promote the orderly and beneficial development of those areas." The proposed building for 43rd & Upton is inconsistent with the Linden Hills Small Area Plan and is out of scale and character with surrounding uses. Against the wishes of the neighborhood, the developer wants a conditional use permit (CUP) to build a four-story 56' building (with parapet) that is 14 feet taller than C1 zoning allows as of right (42' without a CUP) now. The overall height of 56' is the maximum allowed for a four-story building in a C2 zone, but this corner is zoned C1 and the height limit is 42’. The proposed 19' height for the first floor alone is out of scale with all the adjacent buildings, and taller than the first-floor height of any previous proposal for this corner. This proposal is detrimental to the neighborhood and injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in downtown Linden Hills. Approving a conditional use permit would also set a precedent that would lead to effectively rezoning the other parcels in our C1 zone to C2 without the required legal process of public hearings. If the City grants this CUP, the builder will be allowed to ignore and bypass the vision and goals in the Linden Hills Small Area Plan, as well as the guidelines for height, setbacks, and transition areas between adjacent properties.

Please join our interfaith coalition in asking Gov. Brown to sign Senate Bill 23, which will repeal the Maximum Family Grant rule. Right now, a child who is born into an impoverished family that already receives CalWORKs assistance receives no additional benefits – not even the modest additional benefit of $128 a month to help provide the things all young children need. (State law provides for a very few exemptions for children conceived as a result of rape or incest, or from the failure of certain types of birth control – forcing a mother to disclose personal and confidential medical information in order to receive aid for the newborn.) This harsh rule was instituted in the 1990's with the supposed goal of reducing birthrates among impoverished parents. There is no evidence that this has happened. Instead the policy has harmed children, driving families deeper into extreme poverty and homelessness and subjecting little ones to long-term negative consequences during their most vulnerable years. Our state is wealthy - the seventh largest economy in the world, yet 27 percent of our children live in poverty - the highest rate in the nation. Surely we can do better by our children. Repealing the Maximum Family Grant rule is a good place to start. Please sign this petition today and let Gov. Brown know where you stand.

Non-profit organizations, like Girl and Boy Scouts, are made up of people from the local community and free meeting space is necessary to maintain the effectiveness of these programs and to reduce costs for all of the participants. For Girl Scout troops, some whose numbers are small, or have challenges to fundraising, having to sell 216 BOXES OF COOKIES for funds dedicated just to meeting space, will hamper their efforts of giving back to the community in which they live. There is a mandatory limit on dues for participants, so these fees can not simply be an added overhead cost. Additionally, most of these troops give back to the district through volunteer projects-either earning a badge or through Make A Difference Day. Without a connection to their meeting space the incentive for organizing these projects will significantly decrease and the district buildings will actually suffer from this change. Please reconsider charging these groups a fee for simple meetings and activities. The participants are local members of the community who already pay taxes for these buildings, and should be allowed to utilize them whenever time and scheduling allows, to make as much use of those public buildings as possible. Remember, we are all connected in this community, and this decision will have only negative consequences.

Great communities like Brookings aren't complete without bike lanes. In 2008, the city of Brookings approved a plan to make Brookings a bikeable community. However, after nearly 8 years, that plan was never fully implemented. Studies show that bike lanes promote public safety and increase the quality of life for all community members. Brookings has an amazing bike trail, but it's still difficult to navigate the city streets on your bike -- and sidewalks are for pedestrians. Now is the perfect time to tell Jeffrey W. Weldon, the City Manager, to make Brookings complete by making Brookings a bikeable community. We're delivering this petition to Jeff Weldon, so please sign your name and send it to everyone you know who supports bike lanes in Brookings!

In 33 states there's been a ban against feeding the homeless, people are facing fees, even jail time for feeding the homeless. Times are hard, even harder for those that are homeless, so to ban charities from feeding is morally wrong.

Taxes are increasing at an all-time high on the local level to the point where the elderly on fixed incomes are being pitted against their children and grandchildrens' education. Municipalities are being cut to a dangerous level in order to pay the school budget. Something has to change.

Dear Neighbors, The builder has applied at least the 4 times to divert the watercourse by covering a portion of the South Fox Meadow Brook. An approval for anything more than ingress/egress will set a precedent for covering bodies of water throughout Scarsdale. I expect that many of you share the same concerns with respect to the consequences of diverting a watercourse by covering bodies of water. I believe the general welfare of the community is protected by limiting proposed coverage to ingress/egress.

Arizona residents feel acute injustice in not having the facility of nonstop international travel availability. Nations 6th largest city - PHX - deserves better.

As a native of New Jersey I find it totally unacceptable I should have to pay to gain entrance on any public beach. Every other state has found a way to allow all beaches to be free, clean and guarded. Tell our legislators to correct this flawed system.
