To the Mayor and City Council of Iowa City, Iowa:
SUBJECT: Complaints by the people living on South Summit
Street of cars using their street to get to East Court
Street in order to miss all the confusion of getting off
Muscatine Avenue onto Court Street to get into the Court
Hill section of town.
I have lived in Iowa City for forty years and I was not
aware that the people who own property also own the street.
Court Street is one of the two streets going into Court
Hill addition. Instead of trying to find ways such as no
right turn from Burlington Street and a stop sign at Oakland
Avenue, I think you should find ways to move this traffic
instead of slowing it down.
Come out some night at 5:OOPM and see what a mess it is trying
to make a left hand turn from Muscatine Avenue onto Court
Street. We have enough dead -end streets in east Iowa City
without trying to add any more.
I am enclosing two clipping from Over The Coffee. I am
going to send Mr. Kaul a copy of this letter and see if he
would like to comment on it.
Sincerely, (�
