It has come to my attention that an elementary school has been built in one of the oldest sections of east Lexington. The school is located at Liberty Rd. and Star Shoot intersection.
Unfortunately there are not any public transportation services in close proximity to the school or the new community that has been built in the area. With education being one of our top priorities this bothers me as it should you. Young children with parent that have no accsess to transportation would have to miss a whole day of school if they had a doctors appointment in the early morning hours because th walk from Fortune Dr. to the school is about a mile and a half.
Speaking from a disabled person's point of view and church attendee I am also unable to make the walk. One morning I experienced the walk that was not only long but dangerous due to no side-walks or much lighting I feared for my life.
Do we really want our young and working poor to suffer like this when there is a feasible solution?

We the undersigned request that the Lexington Transit Authority provide transportation to our community with shelter as a reprieve from inclement whether.
This will ensure that our young children will not have to miss a whole day of school in the event that a family is without transportation or that said transportation fails. Also to help the elderly and the disabled continue with their daily living activities.
