Carlsbad City Council
Carlsbad.
Attn. Margaret Stanton:
Dear Madam,
I wish to convey to you our full support on the proposal to ban skateboar
on certain streets in Carlsbad,
My husband and I manage the apartment building on the corner of Ocean anc
Oak Streets in Carlsbad and are aware of the dangers to residents and
visitors alike when youths on skateboards zoom up 'out of seemingly nowher
and crash either into their person or vehicle.
Apart from the physical danger, we are'faced with-the-noise pollution. Tt
noise of the skateboard constantly hitting:thef.Concrete:as 'its rider
tries to jump a curb or other obstacle.
Carlsbad is a beautiful place to live. Let us keep it that way for all a€
groups and let us help attract tourism by keeping Carlsbad a happy and s;
place to visit.
Sincerely,
A%+* Shirl ghes .
