Record of Official Proceedings of the- Common Council
of the City of Rochester, Minn., October 18, 1965
"City Council
Rochester, Minnesota
Gentlemen:
The Advisory Board of St. Pius X School has asked me to write you and express
our concern over the use of 12th Street Northwest as an exit for the parking
lot at John Marshall High School. Our main interest is for the safety of those
children attending St. Pius X School and the serious potential hazards we can
identify from any unrestricted use of 12th Street Northwest as a regular exit
from the John Marshall parking lot.
In addition to the regular class schedules maintained at our school, there are
always special activities involving many of our children after regular school
hours and we urge your careful consideration of any use of 12th Street N. W.
which would increase the safety hazards to our homewardbound children. It
would be extremely unfortunate if a situation were allowed to develop in this
area which might result in injury to a child. We appreciate the difficulty
of the traffic amnggestion problem at John Marshall High School, but ask that
you find a solution which does not indiscriminately channel additional
vehicular traffic through this residential street which abuts our school.
Our Board would have no objection to the use of 12th Street on a limited
basis for special events at John Marshall, such as football games. We assume
that use of 12th Street Northwest, under these circumstances, would include
adequate policing of the traffic at these times.
/s T P Murray
Advisory Board
St. Pius X School"
