Dear Ms. Jacl ohnson:This letter serves as my formal notice of resignation as Ad visory Board Mem ber of theHuman R elations and Com munity Services Department. I have had many life changingevents happen over the past six months and I feel that I really need to focus on re-establishing equilibrium at this point. It has been m y personal an d professional guidingprinciple that if I am com mitting to something or someone, it must be 100 percent and if Ican't live up to that, then I must step back. This is one of those instanc es where I muststep back with regret. It has been a privilege to be associated with this Advisory Board.Sincerely,

Richard Lower

AGENDA

Dear, Council President-RobinsonI am a freshman at Lansing Catholic High School and I would like to express the

concern I have about the roundabouts in my neighborhood and other places around thecity. I feel that they are not useful or practical and actually present a hazard. They are awaste of energy and money that we could be putting towards things that could help oureconomy.

The goal of the roundabouts is to slow traffic to help prevent accidents.Unfortunately they also slow down fire trucks and ambulances and people who need tohave help as fast as possible have to wait longer for it. I feel that more people will behurt by the slowed emergency response then are helped by the avoided accidents. I feelthat is going against the goal of the roundabouts.

The roundabouts also cost us money; money that we could be putting to better usemaking new buildings, parks, and other things that would help attract people back toLansing. This would help us with the economy and then we could think about better waysto keep the traffic under control.

I thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I hope my arguments convinceyou to spend our money more wisely.Sincerely,

Andrea Perkowski
