Details on the $635,000 “school safety” grant
From Mayor Dean Bunkers: The $635K is State grant money for Safe Routes to Schools. The City applied for this grant last year. This grant provides engineering and funding to construct a sidewalk on the south of State Route 115, and crosswalks with school zone flashers. Also this grant will fund a sidewalk/bike path from JK Lewis to Ocean Lake Way along the east side of PT Brown. There are several other smaller items also, but it is best to wait for the State to engineer the project for more clarity.

Do not forget the education program and “neighborhood watch” funding that that money is supposed to cover. However, I doubt the “neighborhood watch” money will ever see the light of day. It will be absorbed in pamphlets and web page statements about something that does not exist. We again will try to call it everything but a comprehensive program as outlined by Citizen Corps for neighborhood watch, Medical Response Corp, Map Your Neighborhood, and all the other elements that comprise a comprehensive program. We will continue to grasp at individual straws to float the idea that something is being done.
