ROAD LEADING BACK TO COMMUNITY ACTION

Send a link to a friend

To the editor:

As I travel with my son on Lincoln's city streets, it pleases me that some of the roads are being repaired and are easily traveled upon. Today I had to go to Community Action on 5th street and for as long as I have lived here (since 1997) and have been a client of Community Action, the road leading back to their building is in much need of repair.

The city could save money in the long run if they would repair that road. There would be less repairs on employees, & clients vehicles, and the Head Start Bus and their van if this problem was taken care of.

I am not sure if this has been brought up at city council or who I would need to contact regarding this problem, but my son Chris suggested that I start here by writing this letter.

Shocks on a vehicle can be badly damaged by traveling on roads like this. Thank you.
