I guess back in the 80's they'd hand them out left and right... but anymore it's next to impossible to qualify.<BR/><BR/>Sure, they'll let you pay for one (average cost about $3,000), but I've found nothing but frustration in trying to get the city to put one in on my corner.<BR/><BR/>FIrst you have to qualify with at least 4 accidents in the last 3 years (which i think my corner did qualify for). Then you have to survey the entire neighborhood, door to door, with 100's of signatures up and down each block radiating out from the circle... then you have to do umpteen other things. And I found the attitude at the traffic office was not very helpful really.<BR/><BR/>It's a LOT harder than it seems.... unless you want to just donate one to the city out of your own bank account. Believe me... I tried.<BR/>Anyhow, the lady down on the next corner went ahead and paid for one, so I guess thats about as close as I'll get to having one put in.John Nezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13428052549806632272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23860865.post-1159155566825770652006-09-24T20:39:00.000-07:002006-09-24T20:39:00.000-07:00Nice photo!
