Comment on 2040 Proposed TIF Roadway Projects by Elvin Lerew

I am also on the SR 162 group with Wayne and also encourage everyone to get more involved with this web page and Facebook page. I live in the Shawnee Ridge development.
One thing I want to add to what Wayne has already stated is that once the road from Tahaleh is completed down to SR 162 sometime in 2024 the traffic on Military road will significantly change. A lot of these people from Tahaleh will head up Military to access SR 512, shopping, and to bypass the increase in traffic on SR 162. I am sure you have noticed how much busier Military road has already become. Our ability to get on an off Military road is going to be significantly impacted regardless of whether a new road is extended from 128th to 144th, the new road Wayne mentions. There are approximately 380 homes whose only access out of our neighborhood is Military road. We are going to need improvements made to this road in order to safely access our neighborhoods. I strongly encourage each of you to get involved. The decisions made are going to impact you and your family.

I totally agree with you Kirk. I’m hoping when they do a study of widening the “cliff” area to 4 lanes they deem it infeasible for a variety of reasons such as what you point out plus cost of eminent domain houses. Can you imagine if they shut down that road for years to do this construction what chaos that would cause? Vs if they construct a new road extending 128th up the hill it literally would inconvenience no one.

Military Road up the hill is currently two lane and there have been numerous small landslides over the years. Widening this road would mean cutting back into an already unstable slope or building out over the valley. Neither one of these options seems practical. I hope Pierce county considers the instability of the area before going ahead and committing funds to this solution. Extending 128th would seem to be a more practical solution.

Comment on Dumpster Divers and Recycling Bin Explorers, Paper Shredding Anyone? by James Mears

Since I run a business, I habitually shred all correspondence, particularly, anything of a financial nature and even my music scores. A shredder is cheap insurance against exposing your critical information to thieves.

Comment on Doorbell Cameras by Dav

I also have several friends whom have purchased the Ring Doorbell. Some have reported failures to me and a frustration that they cannot adjust the range and sensitivity of the Ring Doorbell leading to false alerts on their mobile devices. Targeting and triggering is are important issues consider of your visual monitoring devices.

Comment on Mail Thieves –Again! by James Mears

NEVER put mail out for pickup at the mailbox that obviously contains money or checks. This just invites theft. Similarly, never leave mail in the box that would invite theft… mail from financial institutions or other which signals that the contents contain money or financial documents.

Best thing is to make arrangements with financial businesses to do direct deposit to your bank accounts rather than send you checks.

We learned this long ago. So should you.
