02/26/2010 Last releases sent to Mayor and City Council Works (15/01/2010) the attention of the Councillor, Ms Paloma Cano Suarez.
I read your press release about the installation of bike lanes in Manuel de Falla and would make the following observations:
1 ยบ I am also in favor of a bike lane (they could have saved the cost of the survey and subsequent data cuisine), no one in Alcobendas who believes a bike lane is not something positive.
Now we must explain that goal is to be achieved with a bicycle "Remove Space the vehicle and be alternative to private transport? "Remove space for pedestrians and create conflicts?
I think with that bike lanes have chosen the worst scenario, have time to rectify.
2 The only reason given is an alleged agreement with San Sebastian de los Reyes to convey the two cities, more than common sections that connect one street to another Alcobendas San Sebastian de los Reyes. and we have presented alternative sports center Valdelasfuentes join with the San Sebastian and the pasture that will be more useful than the current sports Valdelasfuentes communicates with a cafeteria and a large roundabout with traffic.
3 In our neighborhood the commercial accident rate (excluding bars, bakery, pharmacy and library) is very high, shops installed 15 years ago, only keep the above in parentheses. Now are emerging in the past 2 years, the bike lane and caused the closure isolate, with the employment and economic cost for the area involved.
4 ° So far, the coexistence of the hospitality industry and the neighbors was the most harmonic of Alcobendas, the installation of bike lane forcing the closure of the terraces or his approach to homes with what until now was a harmonious coexistence becomes inexhaustible source of conflict.
the foregoing desire, as a resident of this area and as a member of the neighborhood commission created for this "error" to reconsider its position and begin to find solutions with us, to get to keep this area as one of the most attractive Alcobendas.
the attention of Councilwoman Ms. Paloma Cano Suarez.
After reading their statements to the press, I have a feeling it's more of the same. If you really want to have a good overview of the bike lane, you better have consulted the residents before tax, especially when the alternatives we have presented are fully viable, they just need a real political interest to resolve the conflict they have created. What better to apply once and for all citizen participation that both claim.
Surveys "trap" can give the result that you are interested, just have to ask the questions in a certain way to get the right answer to their interests and not that of the residents affected. Classic questions as: Do you agree with the bike lane? If the question is done collectively, "there TRAP, the neighboring answer if we wish to track bike, because if you want, but where we have proposed is the best alternative. If you ask "do you agree with the bike path by eliminating much of the sidewalk for that walk? The answer will not be the same. Obviously it is not the same answer if you ask the residents of Calle Manuel de Falla from the confluence of the Valdavia Marques to the park in Extremadura (old section), as it is on the sidewalk where there is not a single house, just there are parks and sports center Valdelasfuentes. The surveys will be carried out by one or the other it has become clear that they are not reliable, so do not try to convince public opinion of our town of some ill-conceived. Yes should take into account the 700 signatures of neighbors we have delivered in the City, which really affects, and will not hesitate to defend. The survey is clear that with or without her, the neighbors are in favor of bike lanes, but using logic, not politics.
have chosen, rather "imposed" a path to bind to the bike lane on Avenue Sanse Baunatal, but where is the de Sanse? Will he go through the same door for access to Cafe Nuba? In continuation of Manuel de Falla to San Sebastian de los Reyes Baunatal Avenue, there is no bike lane, or near or far. We'll see if Sanse neighbors argue not the same as us, if you get to build, when they already have an area for bicycles next to Paseo de Albacete, in line Tempranales Brook Estate, where the path is easily join the neighbors we have presented, or in the park in Extremadura or the surrounding by the fence outside Valdelasfuentes Sports.
The neighbors do not want to amend or remove the gardens are located bars and cafes, this would also create a conflict with neighboring safe houses nearby and we assume they will not want to provoke.
hope you are studying with keen interest the proposals put forward, knowing they are viable options for resolving the conflict created, and we hope that the reports, says in its press information, are being finalized, are intended to provide a solution with proposed that the neighbors have presented.
the attention of Mayor D. Ignacio Garcia de Vinuesa and Councillor Ms Paloma Cano Suarez.
Go, go with the official polls! If they are all so, so good ... ..
First Lord Madam Mayor and Councillor for Public Works, in response to a press release on February 8 last, the Commission overlooked the street Manuel de Falla, Alcobendas, NEVER argued against a bike lane, but on consensus all. So we live in a democracy, or so I thought.
things be discussed before, not after.
Second, a survey TRAP like yours is nothing but a huge lie.
In my building, exactly where the residents are hardest hit by the bike path (Manuel de Falla 91 and 89 with corner Maestro Guerrero 2), almost all have been interviewed by telephone for his famous "survey."
To the first question: "Are you in favor of a bike lane, Yes or No?", 98% answered: "Yes, but not here", and of course, a coincidence that this " BUT NOT HERE "is not reflected in a poll right?
Another point: Vds. say that 85% of respondents said that if the bike lane. Of course, if I am asked what I think a bike lane in the Morale, I'll say it's great! If a neighbor who lives at the other end of the street Manuel de Falla or in the street asks him what looks like a bike lane your street, also say that it seems fine. He did not harm at all.
Anyway, I do not balance the books. We, residents of the area and adversely affected by such works completely useless, but have led to clashes between neighbors, merchants and city government, we collected 700 signatures against Vds. bike path where we have imposed it by force, to " caudillo style "signatures without making any survey (people signed their own free will.) If 85% of survey represents the "yes", our 700 firms would have to represent for the remaining 15%.
Let
then a "rule of three", or rather the account of her: If 700 signatures representing 15%, that means that 85% would be. . . . . .3.967 Families (calculating that there is only 1 home telephone number) multiplied by 2 or 3 per family member ... ... ... "" HOW MANY NEIGHBORS LIVE HERE THEN?? . . I had not realized that our neighborhood was SO GREAT !!!!!!!
Seriously, Lord and Lady Mayor Councillor for Public Works, enough to pull our legs and explore a bit more seriously a problem that affects the conviviality of an entire neighborhood.
On December 11, 2009 when we met with the Mayor in front of the work almost finished, Lady. Councilor, when I told him it was a shame for us spoiled our sidewalks, you replied that sidewalks were not ours, were the Town Hall.
Well, let me say that are mistaken, Madam Councilwoman, because the sidewalks, like any public place, remain, become, are enhanced by our tax dollars all the neighbors, just like that piece of proposed cycleway impose by force. Also we are paying us.
Finally, only anecdotally, just yesterday, Saturday 13 February, mid-morning, almost to the ground just streams by a cyclist who was speeding across the street Maestro Guerrero to San Sebastian de los Reyes. He was on the bike path and I on the sidewalk in the same direction as him, but now that you have to walk with eyes in the back, and a cyclist athlete does not walk with a bell or horn or screaming. . .
I touched his leg with his thigh and went rolling at full speed and passing in front of Cafe Nuba, leaving me with the shock in the mouth. Not even turned his head to see if it was okay.
imagine that will
misfortune to happen to Vds. realize the danger that caused his lack of discretion.
