| Several items have come to mind recently and
thought I would pass them along to you:
1. As I was sitting at a
traffic light on Knollwood Road (between Route 119 and Dobbs Ferry Road),
I couldn't help but notice the abundance of garbage littering the wooded
area across from the A&P shopping center. Wouldn't now be a good time
to clean up this (and other) neglected areas around town? Before Spring
arrives, it's so much easier to see the garbage and get it out of there.
Waiting for your summer help to arrive is waiting too long.
2. Have you recently driven
onto the entrance to 287 (eastbound) opposite White Plains Bowling? What
happened to the trees? My heart goes out to those poor people who live on
the other side of the fence. Is the Town of Greenburgh making as much a
fuss about this as they were about the Stew Leonard's access road? I
certainly hope so.
3. If Greenburgh has a law
about cutting down trees or replacing the ones which are cut down, we are
doing a poor job of enforcing that law. If we don't have one, isn't it
time to put one on the books before the "Green" is no longer
apparent in Greenburgh?
4. When the trees at the train
station were cut down for various reasons, couldn't we have just replaced
them with evergreens which are appealing to the eye year round instead of
trying to come up with something "nouveau"?
5. Was it necessary to approve
a convenience store at the Sunoco station on Central Avenue?
6. As most Hartsdale residents
know, Our Lady of Sikhora church created a traffic debacle on West
Hartsdale Avenue last year. Exactly what type of traffic study does your
Board need to convince you that adding a high school and two churches on
Dobbs Ferry Road will infuse enough cars to make Dobbs Ferry Road and West
Hartsdale Avenue a virtual parking lot on weekends?
Just some thoughts from a resident who has
lived in this town long enough to know what was and sees what is now. The
Hartsdale I knew is disappearing. |
