He served <br />faithfully as the Police Department’s representative to the Traffic Commission. Sgt. King <br />leaves to mourn a loving wife and parents. Our thoughts and prayers go to his family at this <br />difficult time. <br /> <br />2. Restrict parking on one side of Northmoor Dr, from 7045 to 7117 and Asbury Ave to <br />the west city limit. <br /> <br />Please find attached a traffic request submitted by Tobey Tung, resident at 7247 Northmoor <br />Dr, on September 18, 2008, requesting that parking be restricted on one side of Northmoor <br />to allow buses, ambulances and fire trucks to travel on Northmoor Dr. <br /> <br />Ms. Tung states that the neighbors are concerned that emergency vehicles cannot get <br />through when vehicles are parked on both sides of the street. <br /> <br />This same request was made by Deputy Fire Chief Donald Miner, with the University City <br />Fire Department. The request was presented to the commission at meetings held on June <br />13, 2007 and July 11, 2007. The Fire Department requested that parking be prohibited on <br />one side of Northmoor from Big Bend west to the city limit. The Sanitation Division of the <br />Public Works Department has reported that it is extremely difficult for the trash trucks to <br />navigate along Northmoor. The Public Works Street Division has reported that it is difficult <br />for snow plowing when cars are parked on both sides of the street. <br /> <br />These are the comments from last year’s meetings: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Agenda Traffic Commission Meeting October 8, 2008 Page <br /> 1 <br /> <br />
