It has been suggested vehicles be prohibited here because they block the views, and remain parked with engines idling and music playing. If cars were prohibited, and pavement removed, the overlook area could be expanded and made more pedestrian-friendly. Do you agree this is a good idea?

DATE 1 This should be an area for pedestrians to enjoy the view ! 6/22/2021 9:22 AM 2 The view at the park is amazing and I think it is underappreciated. Cars parking at the overlook 6/21/2021 9:46 AM spot does not facilitate equal access to the view. 3 It would be better to enforce the laws. It is an iconic view. Many seniors and tours can drive 6/18/2021 1:01 PM around to see the view. If the pavement were removed, this would restrict the view to people who were physically able to walk in. 4 The view is the best feature of the park. 6/16/2021 6:29 PM 5 Right now it encourages drinking and drug use. Cars parked obscure the view for others. Plus 6/15/2021 6:49 PM 9 / 37 Bellevue Park Feedback people throw trash from their cars on the ground along with their cigarettes. Often moving cars cannot get passed cars parked. 6 Everything should be more pedestrian friendly. 6/15/2021 12:31 AM 7 The cars are always there, and the music tends to be disruptive. 6/15/2021 12:30 AM 8 There's a parking spot for cars already 6/14/2021 2:54 PM 9 I’m really unsure on this as I see the advantages/disadvantages of both choices. It’s 6/14/2021 1:28 PM frustrating with the music and idling on the other hand I like how you can just pull through slowly on a cold day to catch the view. 10 Cars are very disruptive to the natural beauty and spirit of the overlook area. There are plenty 6/14/2021 11:46 AM of other places for cars to park besides the overlook. Along with their noise, pollution, and physical clutter, cars create additional and unnecessary risk for children who are enjoying the overlook. 11 Expanded safe access for the park’s primary attraction, and the potential to host events and 6/14/2021 9:05 AM other activations to promote active lifestyles and strengthen community. 12 I agree it would help make the viewing experience more pleasurable though it might cause 6/13/2021 11:40 PM even more congestion. I tried to park today in the lot and it was very hard to turn around 13 If this were combined with concessions, perhaps some cafe tables and chairs could be added 6/13/2021 6:09 PM as well. An example of this is Lake Harriet in Minneapolis, which has a bandshell for free music events and a concession stand run by a local restaurant. https://www.minneapolisparks.org/parks__destinations/parks__lakes/lake_harriet_park/ http://www.breadandpickle.com/about-us 14 This is sensible 6/13/2021 4:59 PM 15 I think that the area would be more kid friendly and promote the community if this went into 6/13/2021 4:43 PM place. 16 Less cars more park= good 6/13/2021 4:42 PM 17 This solution would give the park back to the pedestrian instead of the car. Often when I come 6/13/2021 4:39 PM here on my bike I find it annoying to have idling cars on the roundabout spewing fumes and blocking the views. 18 Would love the more area to walk around 6/13/2021 4:23 PM 19 Id rather have more park than parking, I personally can take the walk to get to the park 6/13/2021 3:56 PM 20 Always love more pedestrian space! But I also want the park to be more accessible since it’s 6/13/2021 3:52 PM up on a hill 21 I think it would be an excellent idea as long as there is adequate recreation areas such as 6/13/2021 3:51 PM picnic tables and benches. People tend to use their cars because they are air conditioned and it’s an excellent view. I also believe it would bring in more visitors who are there to use the park for picnics and other activities. 22 Park usage would be far more pleasant if full use of the loop were allowed. 6/13/2021 2:30 PM 23 As someone without a car its never bothered me 6/13/2021 2:15 PM 24 I’d rather green space than idling cars and loitering. People can walk to see the view. 6/10/2021 7:12 PM 25 The cars spoil the peaceful spot. 6/10/2021 7:03 PM 26 Agree, but make an effort to allow for vehicles in case of accessibility needs. The view should 6/10/2021 2:39 PM be able to be enjoyed by all. 27 The loud cars, with engines running and blocking the views, are a real detriment to a good 6/8/2021 11:19 PM outdoor experience for pedestrians and their families. It is unsafe and intimidating, especially in the evening. I have witnessed people in their cars shooting up drugs. 28 The idling of cars is just awful. No need to do that with climate issues. It’s noisy too. 6/6/2021 8:58 PM 29 No good reason to let cars park. Make sure the overlook is ADA accessible and I don’t believe 6/6/2021 8:57 PM anyone’s experience would be hampered by removing the circle. 10 / 37 Bellevue Park Feedback 30 It would enhance the view and force the fools blocking it to park elsewhere 6/4/2021 5:17 AM 31 Pavement should remain. This is a lovely park and parking needs to be prohibited in the 6/1/2021 4:44 PM circular drive.

    GROW OUTSIDEOUTSIDE a GUIDE to OUTDOOR PLAY Turn Over a New Leaf!

    GROWGROW OUTSIDEOUTSIDE A GUIDE TO OUTDOOR PLAY Turn over a new leaf! www.LNCIgc.org Dear Reader: Do you remember when parents told their children to “Go Outside and Play”? A time when unstructured play in nature built healthy bodies, encouraged creativity and a sense of wonder, relieved stress, facilitated learning and developed important social skills? In the relatively short span of thirty to forty years, we have removed our children from the natural environment that so effectively nurtured healthy child development. When Richard Louv published his book “Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder” in 2005, he issued a call to action for the parents and mentors of today to return children to the healthy, outdoor lifestyle that has prevailed throughout human evolution. We hope this guide will inspire you to encourage today’s children to “GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY”!! ! Leave No Child Inside – Greater Cincinnati sage ... es from uv M Richard Lo A Author, Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder Today, kids are well aware of the global threats to their environment, but their physical contact, their intimacy with nature on a day-to-day basis, is fading. A fifth-grader in a San Diego classroom put it succinctly: “I like to play indoors better ‘cause that’s where all the electrical outlets are.” I believe our society is teaching young people to avoid direct experience in nature. That unintended message is delivered by schools, families, even organizations devoted to the outdoors, and codified into the legal and regulatory structures of many of our communities – effectively banning much of the kind of play that we enjoyed as children.

The Clifton Town Meeting records illustrate the varied activity of the Clifton neighborhood, the evolution and development of a community organization and its relationship to the larger urban community of Cincinnati. In particular, the records reveal the origins and problems of neighborhood-controlled community planning, the prospective uses of zoning, the various attempts to preserve the image of Clifton’s nineteenth-century “village” past (in one case, via retention of gas lighting), and the existing traffic and education conditions of the Clifton community during the 1960s and 1970s. Also, the records highlight the development of other Cincinnati neighborhood and community councils during this period. The records of the Clifton Town Meeting were accessioned by the Special Collections Department of the University of Cincinnati Library in 1977. Periodically, other materials dated from 1977 will be deposited in the Department and increase the scope of the present collection.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

He gave the new suburb a unified pastoral route from the Texas frontier to see Niagara Falls. Strauch landscape preceded in America only by Cincinnati's own had not intended to visit the "Metropolis of the West." But temporarily stranded in the strange city, he recalled having met a local resident, Robert Bonner Bowler, whose appreciation for fine picturesque designed landscapes, the jar din anjjlais, Strauch had helped heighten in 1851 while guiding Americans through the London Crystal Palace Exhibition and various notable English gardens. Strauch retrieved Bowler's calling card from his pockets and con- tacted the civic leader, who greeted him warmly and seized the opportunity not only to welcome the unexpect- ed visitor to Cincinnati but to persuade Strauch to cancel the rest of his travel plans. Wealthy Cincinnatians immediately recog- nized Strauch as a world-class designer and were intent on not losing him.
