Description

In a car on hill street trying to turn onto Geddes, left or right, the visibility is about zero. To the left there is a large mass of land with weeds and brush and trees. The land itself blocks the legally adopted regulation for sight lines. Apparently
( according to the city rules ) you have to be able to see well over 200 feet up the street to execute your turn safely. To do this, you would need to put the nose of your car into the oncoming traffic lane. A fatality occurred on Geddes not so long ago. It involve a child. It's good that the city put up a speed reading sign ( just up the hill from this location) but quite a few people believe that this land mass and the trees and brush need to be removed to provide safe passage at Hill and Geddes.
