Office. School children and other pedestrians are at risk of injury due to the lack <br /> of a "complete street" with adequate sidewalks and crossings. The community, <br /> Parker Ranch, Parker Center and Hawaii County Department of Public Works <br /> are working on short term solutions to reduce the risk to pedestrians and improve <br /> traffic circulation and safety at Lindsey /Mamalahoa Highway Intersection. The <br /> Long term solution is to build the Lindsey Road extension. This short section of <br /> road (0.43 Miles) is supported by the community. Recently the Planning <br /> Department received a petition signed by 60 Waimea residents. A survey <br /> conducted via email to 200 residents resulted in Lindsey Road Extension being <br /> the one of most requested County improvement desired. Funding under the <br /> above mentioned approved $10M Bond is available. <br /> Our Committee requests Council to approve amending the CIP with addition of <br /> the Lindsey Road Extension Project TMK. <br /> I can be contacted at 883 -2918 or whao@hawaii.rr.com . Thank you for this <br /> opportunity for the SKTSC membership to comment. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Mike Price -Chair South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee <br /> CC: SKTSC <br /> Page 2 of 2 <br />
