Tips on building a Great Neighborhood

* Get to know your neighbors and watch out for each other
* Watch for suspicious activity and people
* Be particularly alert during vacations, hospital stays, and other periods when neighbors are away
* Be courteous and keep noise to a minimum (City code Chapter 96)

* Keep trash containers and bags OUT OF SIGHT until pick up day (City code 51 - requires containers to be set out AFTER noon day before and removed by BEFORE noon the day after scheduled pick up
* Maintain trees, shrubs, and landscaping so as not to obscure vision of roadways, intersections, or damage vehicles (City code 99)
* Be considerate of others with seasonal displays. Check to see that your holiday lights don;t shine or glare in your neighbors bedroom windows. Remove lights and displays promptly after the holiday period - allowing for weather conditions. (City code 154)

Transportation Planning FY 2009-2012

Thursday May 29, 2008 from 4pm to 7pm at the City-County bldg, room 250 (omni room)

Everyone is welcome to see what is in the works for the next 5 years as pertaining to ALL transportation in Ft. Wayne. The Ardmore project is in the middle of this. The Ardmore project was supposed to be completed by 2009, but delayed every step of the way. Right now, the 4-lane widening project does NOT have a completion date!!! Come and see why, and give 'em your input!
