You object to our request to the city to install a traffic signal at intersection of Algonquin and Insurrection Lane. You state that school is not open twenty four hours daily, closed on weekends, holidays, and in summer vacation time. You won't speak to the 'safety factor' which the traffic light will 'signally' provide! Your's is smoke screen opposition!
