Fir wood parents see need for caution sign
Members of the Firwood
Parent Teacher Club sup
port the idea of a sign or
speed zone at the intersec
tion of S E Firwood Hoad
and S E Eirwood School
Road
Over 200 signatures were
gathered recently suppor
ting the concept of a cau
lion sign near the school
Patti Tobias, chairman
of the PTC ways and means
com m ittee, said that a
representative of the club
w ill ask the Sandy City
Council for a letter of
recommendation for the
sign Eirwood School is out
side the city limits
They'd like to take a let
ter of recommendation and
th e
s ig n a tu r e s
to
Clackamas County officials
for approval
“ If this fails, we ll find
other paths to take to get a
sign up," Tobias said
"This sign w ill go up ”
Many patrons apparently
feel a school crossing sign
is needed to warn motorists
about the school People
not living in the area might
not know there is a school
nearby when they pass the
intersection
S u p e rin te n d e n t C la rk
Lund said he supports the
PTC in its efforts
Lund said he pursued two
related issues through the
summer with county of
ficials
A court order, reportedly
correcting an oversight,
designates what was once
considered an extension of
Trubel Road as Southeast
Firwood School Road
W ith th a t a p p ro v a l
comes snow removal and
other benefits to the short
section of road, such as
maintenance
The second request, that
of a caution sign, was
denied The established
procedure is that unless
school property fronts a
road, no signs are put up
Lund said he feels it's im
portant to consider what's
"prudent."
He pointed out that to the
south of the intersection is
a blind curve, and on the
west side one goes over a
steep hill just before get-
ting to the intersection
“ Very few " youngsters
cross at the intersection, he
said
He'd like signs up sim ilar
to those at Kelso School

He said setting up a
school zone could create “ a
false sense of security."
C o n sidering the s m a ll
number of students who
cross at the intersection, he
said it ’s unlikely the area
would be designated a
