Regarding Salem End. Remove a portion of the stone wall so that the drivers can actually see what traffic is coming on Salem End. The impaired visibility is the main problem at this intersection.

It was a surprise to many people that the removal of the stop signs was on the city council agenda - the only people who showed up to speak about them were people who were not in favor of keeping them because they live on Salem End/Singletary and it was too noisy for them.

As someone who thought the signs were doing what was asked of them (and the traffic commission apparently has data supporting that the signs were working), had I known the item was on the agenda, I would have attended the meeting.

I am concerned by the lack of transparency in City Council agenda items being added last minute. How is that good governance where people can weigh in? How many items are being added last minute so constituents can't make their opinions known?

No one runs against the majority of the incumbent city councilors because no one really thinks they can beat them - too much cronyism in Framingham. I was pleasantly surprised by Leslie's win and I'm glad her neighborhood is willing to give someone else an opportunity to enact change in the city. I wish more people had the optimism Leslie has.
