Valley Metro I 101 N. 1st Ave. Phoenix, AZ 85003 602.262.7433 1. Public Comment on non-agenda action items Chair Tolmachoff said the first item on our agenda will be public comments. Please state your name and city for the record and you will have three minutes to speak. The first speaker we have is Art Marsden. Ms. Marsden said I live in the City of Phoenix. And I want to start off by thanking Valley Metro and the Board for putting in a dedicated transportation system because it does let developers know that there is a safe and efficient way to move the people who interact with their investments. And as we know transportation must be safe. So I also want to give a shout-out for my appreciation about the measures that have been enacted to improve safety on the light rail line. You guys have had more safety officers put in place. You've given them more training and ability to ensure safety. And I love the Respect the Ride, the right and the wrong characters. I've seen those out in the community and on the trains. And also this enables our officers to remove and apprehend people who are trying to ruin the light rail ride for others. Now I do live at 11th Avenue and Camelback. And I would like another level of safety for the light rail at 11th -- 7th Avenue and Camelback for pedestrians and drivers alike. I was talking to my community action officer in the Desert Horizon Precinct and right after an August meeting we pulled crime stats and we saw that the average was one car-pedestrian accident per week. And just two days ago we pulled the statistics again and again it averaged one car-pedestrian accident per week at the 7th Avenue and Camelback platform area. So that means once a week there's a driver who now has to live with hitting a pedestrian with their car. And these pedestrians include school kids of all ages especially at three o'clock when the high school students from Central High School get off the light rail and just run across the street to go to the McDonalds there. It also includes workers and shoppers who are trying to shave just a few minutes off to get onto the light rail, and in all honesty it also involves people of varying degrees of sobriety trying to get on the platform and even the light rail. And this is very unnerving for the drivers to have unpredictable actions from pedestrians at all different times and it just raises the stress level of driving in that area.
