Crosspost from HP: From district, re: tonight’s school-closure hearing

[WSB]

From Bridgett Chandler at Seattle Public Schools communications, some important info for anyone attending tonight’s hearing at the Genesee Hill (Pathfinder) building:

>>Dear community members,

We want to thank those of you who have signed up to testify at tonight’s

public hearing and those who wish to attend. The weather has created

concerns about safety, and we send this information to update you about

conditions around the Genesee Hill building where the hearing will be

held from 6:30-8:30 tonight.

Road conditions this morning lead us to recommend that those who choose

to attend the hearing carpool and look for parking along the north

shoulder (school side) of Genesee. That road was recently sanded.

While there is some remaining ice on the shoulder area, it is much

clearer than the south side of Genesee.

The sidewalks and steps into the school building were sanded this

morning by SDOT, and staff requested that Dakota and 51st be sanded as

well by SDOT since there was ice on both of these side streets. The

school playground is CLOSED for your safety because of ice, so please

look for parking along Genesee. Metro bus information is available at

http://tripplanner.metrokc.gov/cgi-bin/itin_page.pl?resptype=U

We ask that people enter the building from the corner of 51st and

Genesee and follow the signs to the cafeteria where the hearing will be

conducted starting at 6:30.

We want our families and staff to be safe, and we also want to hear your

input. If you make the decision not to attend tonight, we want you to

know that we are reading the emails that come in to

capacity@seattleschools.org as we will also read the transcripts of each

public hearing held this week. Transcripts will also be posted to our

capacity management web site which you can visit from our home page at

http://www.seattleschools.org <http://www.seattleschools.org/&gt;

Thank you for your participation in this engagement process as we

prepare final recommendations for further public review. <<

Well, we can see Dakota from California to about 50th and (as of 5:00) no sand, so if SDOT accommodated, then they didn’t do the rest of the street :(
