City of Ferndale - City Council Meeting 05112026

Westbound traffic, we're not gonna move traffic into opposite lanes. So when the southbound lane so basically, the centerbound, the centerline

Away from high demand areas, the recommendations were to use the West Side Of Bermuda and the North Side Of Breckenridge, provide a visible employee parking pass as part of this program, and allow those permitted vehicles to park without ticketing. The challenges we saw here, were the high prevalence of residential properties and specifically residential driveways on Breckenridge, which would impact the turn radii if there was parking at both the north side and the south side of the street. The question of public safety routes, having sufficient widths for our public safety vehicles to travel, and then just

Christopher Hall, Jim McCluckie, and Michelle Donaldson.

I guess I'll go next. Sorry. I was when I was looking at this appointment, I was, focusing on skill sets that best complement, this current council and where I think we have gaps. So for me, of all the candidates, I really liked Renee. She stood out to me.

On traffic safety and what to do with different signs and things like that. We'll also be doing some giveaways for some bike accessories and doing some, bike licensing and, have some other, giveaways as well. So, again, that'll be Thursday, May 21 at 6PM at Garber Park. We also have our Gary Park Skate Jam that is upcoming on Saturday, June 6. That'll be at Gary Park at, from 11:00 to 04:00PM.

That will include skate park contests, bounce houses, gate

noise ordinance, and short term rental stuff. I'm very hopeful that there's going to be a lot of resident, concerns addressed, more to come on that. But it is it is a priority, and we are paying attention to it, daily. I've got more, but that that's it for now. I I appreciate all the discussion.

You know, I I I think a lot of what I would love to see come from this is more community conversation around planning, development, which includes parking. So thanks thanks for all the the wonderful presentations and and and thoughtful discussion. Yeah. Thank you.

A lot of work occurred tonight. I've I I had so many things to say as far as, for call to call to council, but I'm tired. So so I will just leave it at one. Once again, thank you to everyone who applied. Tomorrow is the state of the city held at affirmations.

From six to seven, it's volunteer appreciation, and 07:00 is the state of the city. And one of the things that I really enjoy about this at 10:24. Have a good evening.
