Description
The West side of Cemetery Rd along the cemetery is overgrown and you can not see approaching traffic from the side street. There is a day care drop off here, and over 100 cars use this entrance. It is terribly unsafe for the parents to not be able to see oncoming traffic. I'm not sure if one of those tractors with the side cutters that they use to do I-87 would be enough, or if you need guys with chainsaws as well to cut this back. I think this is Town of Halfmoon DPW that handles this, but maybe it is the owners of the cemetery. If someone who knows who to contact could pass the word along, it would be most appriciated.
Thanks

I took 2 pictures, standing on the west side looking north. I did not notice it till I looked closely.
There are bushes, but the main problem seems to be 4 or 5 trees that are leaning over along side and above the road.
Just north of this problem spot, the road is trimmed back 4 or 5 feet, very nicely.
Hope this helps
Thanks again

Mindy,
There is an old fense that was made out of pipes that is broken and runs along this area, just an FYI.
It would not be a problem for a bulldozer, but if a chainsaw hits it , someone could get hurt.
I did not see the fense till I took a real close look again.
It looks to be the same as the rest of the fense on the other side of the entrance that is still standing.
Thanks again for moving so fast on this.
Bill
