Safety Committee July Meeting

I’ve shared my notes from last night’s Safety Committee meeting where we talked about a number of changes we could make to improve the downtown streetscape. Safety Committee July Meeting

Safety Committee November Meeting

I just published my recap of Monday’s Safety Committee meeting, where we reviewed a variety of improvements we can make to the streetscape in the wake of the North Main Street bridge project. Very happy with the progress we’ve made so far and I’m cautiously optimistic that these changes will actually be implemented. If you care about this stuff (and you should!) take a look and let me know what you think. I’m planning to call another meeting for December 9 to keep the momentum going, so please join if you can… Safety Committee November Meeting

Safety Committee December Meeting

Safety Committee January Meeting

All of the recent injury-causing vehicle/pedestrian collisions in Chagrin Falls that I’m aware of – including the two women struck in 2023 and the death of Eli Sacharon in 2014 – were pedestrians in crosswalks with the right of way. So I think instead of lecturing people about walking we should be addressing the root causes of actually dangerous situations, like poor street design, driver recklessness, and oversized vehicles. As residents we’re only really able to influence the first item on that list, and that’s what we’ve been doing for the last couple of years on the Safety Committee. I encourage anyone concerned about pedestrian safety to join us as we plan improvements to our village! (comment from Village Block Club)
