I simply must comment on the extraordinary service that is given by the staff of the Leisure World Library.

I am selling one unit here, and I am under construction remodeling and adding on to my new unit. That chaos ensues does not begin to describe trying to utilize my desktop computer and printer/scanner with dust inches high and workmen all around. I know, it’s my own fault for even trying.

But today I thought, why don’t I go to the LW Library. Computers are handy. I logged in and had access to all my files. I was able to download documents, print (10 cents a page) and scan too. The staff— Library Operations Assistant Heather Kaveney and Library Clerks Ty Buford and Sujin Lee—are amazing. They are efficient, knowledgeable, patient and beyond helpful.

What an incredible resource. Lucky us who live in LW.

My experience as a pedestrian using sidewalks along St. Andrews Drive and El Dorado Drive leads me to believe the cheaply designed speed humps on those streets do more harm than good. When the on-street parking spaces along the motorist’s approach to the speed humps are vacant, motorists typically avoid the humps by veering to the right, into the vacant parking spaces, to swerve around the humps.

This is scary and unsafe for pedestrians on the sidewalk near those popular swerve points.

GRF should solve this problem by removing selected speed humps or by solving the problem some other way, perhaps by “planting” parked cars at those popular swerve points.
