Install no stopping sign in front of Eastview between during 730-830 AM and 2:00 - 3:00 PM
I have seen cars stop traffic on Grove street during high traffic to let off students. Students are often dropped off on the opposite side of the street and to dodge traffic to get to the school or block traffic to cross. Parents are blocking residential drive ways to drop off students or the students are blocking drives ways to cross the road. It is getting very dangerous. I do't understand why many schools in residential areas have this rule, except this one. No police or bylaw has been seen to control the problem. Perhaps making the area no-stopping would…

Create a center for artists (guild) to gather and show Ceramic art work. There are many pottery artists in the area and there is no guild.
There are so many potters and ceramic artists in the area but not guild or organization to promote their art in the Barrie/Simcoe area. Not talking gallery showings but a professional organization to grow art in the city and evolve. Similar to Toronto we could draw interests from locals or tourists by placing a educational/demo setup in a high traffic city property.

A crosswalk be placed at the stop sign on Sandringham and Consort Dr.
A lot of children walk the pathway from Hewitt's Creek Public School which brings them out to the Stop sign on Sandringham and Consort Dr. I have seen many close calls there. I think installing a cross walk sign or white lines something to gain the attention of drivers is needed. Thank you for your time.

The bank at the corner of mulcaster and collier st. needs to have wheel chair parking in front of the bank not across the road .
There are no wheel chair parking spots in front of the bank. ( Bank of Montreal ). This makes it very difficult for handycap customers. The first 2 spaces in front of the bank should be for wheel chair. Collier St and Mulcaster.
There is one wheel chair spot across the road which makes no sense at all. Thank you2 votes
