The Board Members of the Bend-Cascade View Estates Tract 2, Special Road District
would like to ask for a Traffic /Speed Survey on Elk(off Juniper), Deschutes, Todd, Raven,
Elk(off Todd), and Freemont Roads. The Board Members and Residents of Bend-Cascade
View Estates would like to see a Speed Limit of 30-35 MPH on these Roads.
The reasons we are asking for this survey are; School Kids walking to and from the Bus
Stop, an increase in Population and Traffic in the area, Wildlife, an increase in Young Adult
Drivers, and improvements to the Roads that Could result in faster moving Vehicles.
We would like to thank you for your consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,
The Board Members of the Bend-Cascade View Estates Tract 2, Special Road District
