We are petitioning the City of Carlsbad to install sidewalks on the following streets near Carlsbad High School:
- North and south sides of Gayle Way between Monroe Street and Donna Drive
- East and West sides of Ann Drive between Gayle Way and Janice Way
- Laurie Circle - entire cul-de-sac
- North and south sides of Janice Way between Ann Drive and Donna Drive
- West side of Donna Drive to connect with proposed south side of Janice Way and existing sidewalk on Donna Drive

Gayle Way, Janice Way and Ann Drive are extremely busy streets most of the year due to automobile and pedestrian traffic to and from Carlsbad High School (CHS) and during extracurricular activities at CHS and Monroe Street Pool. These three streets are also main routes for many elementary and middle school students walking to and from Magnolia Elementary and Valley Middle Schools. Neighborhood residents also use this street regularly for walking or running. The City of Carlsbad installed large, coarse gravel at the corner of Gayle Way and Ann Drive a few years ago, which has basically become menacing for pedestrians. Young children, forced to walk on the gravel instead of the street, have also fallen on the hazardous gravel.

Erin McClure is a 15-year-old special needs child living on Laurie Circle. She requires wheelchair only access and her caregivers are forced to use busy streets with no wheelchair access when taking her for walks. Currently, she is approximately three blocks from any wheelchair accessible sidewalk.

We, the undersigned, call on the City of Carlsbad to install sidewalks on the following Carlsbad streets:

- North and south sides of Gayle Way between Monroe Street and Donna Drive
- East and West sides of Ann Drive between Gayle Way and Janice Way
- Laurie Circle - entire cul-de-sac
- North and south sides of Janice Way between Ann Drive and Donna Drive
- West side of Donna Drive to connect with proposed south side of Janice Way and existing sidewalk on Donna Drive
