ELEMENTARY SCHOOL)
The Traffic Commission received a request from the Garvey School District's Chief Business Officer, Grace
Garner, regarding the support of a crossing guard (crossing guard is not part of this report) at the intersection
of Fern Avenue and Jackson Avenue due to heavy traffic during the AM and midday peak. This intersection
serves two nearby schools: Bitely Elementary School and Garvey Intermediate School. While the crossing
guard is under the purview of the City Manager's Office, staff did review the traffic flow at the intersection of
Jackson Avenue and Fern Avenue to determine needed improvements to increase pedestrian visibility.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION

feet prior to the crosswalks in all four legs of the intersection of Fern Avenue and Jackson Avenue, and
painting 20 -feet of red curb on all corners at the same intersection. If red curb is already existing, it should
be repainted.
