Mayor and Council C
City of San Bernardino City Clerk/CDC Seey
300 North D Street City of San Bernardino
San Bernardino, Ca.
We,the citizens on and about the 300th block of 18th street, are writing to request
your support of our quest to make permanent the cul de sac on this block of 18th street.
In support of the mayor and council's efforts to assist the citizens in their attempts to
maintain and improve the appearance of their neighborhoods, thus eradicating blight and
the many problems associated with it, we are working together, as a community. We
have a very active neighborhood association; we, as neighbors, help one another with
individual beautification projects; we have pooled our private financial resources to hire a
private security team to help watch over our neighborhood; many of us have tried to help
build a bridge with the nearby youth by voluntering to serve on our local Youth
Accountability Board, etc. Now, we are working together to help obtain the requested
18th street closure. We believe that this will make our neighborhood much safer for
residents and the many school children who walk through daily on their way to school as
the traffic is now significantly slower and greatly reduced. We are confident that reduced
crime and heavy traffic, associated with this street closure, will greatly benefit our
neighborhood and the many neighborhoods surrounding us.
We feel it necessary to draw your attention to some very serious discrepancies noted in
the staff report presented to the mayor and council. In an attempt to show the citizens in
opposition to the 18th street closure as well as those in support of this project, a map was
presented. The dots placed at homes represent those opposed and the solid lines placed
on homes represent those who support the closure. However each individual member of
a household, man, woman, and, sometimes child, who opposed this closure is represented
by a separate dot; yet ALL members within each household who support the closure are
represented by one single line. Thus giving the false appearance of comparing like
quantities when no such accurate comparison exists. Frankly they have compared apples
to oranges. Ae cannot but question the motives behind this misrepresentation. Is it
A cs �Y't�T- e r
because ltr. Anwarr*agdy, a non-resident owner of a rental property in the area, has
publically opposed this project?
Residents and property owners in and around 18th street were sent a letter by Mr.
Hardgrave, of Public Works & Engineering Department, City of San Bernardino, giving
us until the 11th of January to register our views concerning this project, via letter or
telephone message, with city hall. However, we were shocked to find that several of our
messages and letters of support, turned in well before the deadline, were not included in
the report. Upon investigation, we discovered that, in spite of the designated deadline of
January 11th given to citizens,the report was finalized and printed the day BEFORE the
deadline, January 10th.
All proposed projects will naturally have their opposers as well as supporters. We
recognize that it is our responsibility, as citizens,to try to provide as much information, in
support of our view, as possible to our elected officials to assist them in making wise
constructive decisions. We have attempted to do this. However, we expect that the
investigating city department, in this case Traffic and Safety, will provide accurate
unbiased information. This department should be working to benefit all of San
Bernardino's citizens, not to assist the personal desires of one of it's employees who
doesn't even happen to live in our city!
Mr. Mayor and council members, we urge you to consider the many benefits to the
18th street community and it's surrounding neighborhhods that this requested cul de sac
will provide. We, as a group of neighbors who work together in a spirit of good will to
benefit our whole community, request your assistance in helping us preserve and improve
our lovely little community. Thank you for the time and efforts put in on study and
consideration of our project.
Sincerely,
e

Dear Mayor and Council members,
I initially had concerns about creating a cul de sac at the intersection of Arrowhead and
18th street for the following reasons:
I thought it would not provide access to foot traffic, in particular, children attending
SBHS.
I thought that the section of 18th street between Arrowhead and "D" street was
going to become a private street closed to the public.
Closing the street creates an inconvenience for residents like myself who are
accustomed to using the street to get to "E" street.
After being assured that the street will remain open to foot traffic and that there are no
plans to make the street private, I am in full support of the project. More importantly,
since the time that the street has been closed at Arrowhead and 18th street I have
noticed a huge reduction in graffiti and bad elements cruising the streets looking for
trouble.
Sincerely,
J)
