Ruth Drive is a rough pot hole infested gravel and dirt road which runs from the cross road of 1300 E. Stegall Drive to a DEAD END at 129 Ruth Drive. At the entrance of 1300 E. Stegall Drive @ Ruth Drive there are street signs, but in order to hold down unnecessary vehicular traffic. With new building of family homes with several small children in the area and on Ruth Drive specifically we consider a DEAD END sign a safety tool which would turn back vehicles that ordinarily drive down the road just to turn around either at a dead end or in our pasture land. It is our hope you can see the necessity for a DEAD END sign at that location. The entire road length is temporarily repaired by the residence living on the road by grating with small lawn tractor tools. But that has proven to be only a temporary fix. With the residential vehicular and heavy trash truck traffic and weather which erodes the surface both large and small potholes have to be navigated around to avoid damage to vehicles.

Many people on Downsville and all of the people on Juniper Ln live in the city limits but do not have access to any fire hydrants. We are unable to get protective discounts on homeowners insurance and are not protected in the event of a fire. Since you are replacing the water lines with 6 in water lines, please consider putting fire hydrants down Downsville Rd and Juniper lane every 1000-1200 ft..

Nothing says "We are indifferent" like leaving roadkills on the streets of town. Every ACO since the late '90s did it - what's changed? Every week, it doesn't matter what street - N. or S. Robinson Dr. or any of the other street, we see dead animals rotting away day after day. Any animal from squirrel and rabbit-sized on up needs to be removed and quickly. And we shouldn't have to call - the ACO should be pro-active and get out there, turn on his/her emergency lights, and scrape them up and dispose of them. Police Officers and City workers in their vehicles all have radios - they can call t hem in. If I were a business person considering relocating to Robinson, this sort of thing reeks of indifference and apathy. The City can do better.

It would be a great idea if and when the Lyndale Street in the school zone would also have sidewalks put in for the students safety.

I moved here from the city of Waco that does have curbside recyle containers that are picked up every other week. Robinson doesn't offer any such service, but the need is still out there. I tried taking recycleables to the Brookshire Grocery Store, but their containers are too small. Large metal containers could accommodate the city if they are clearly marked, plus this would help reduce garbage taken to the landfills whose space is becoming a precious commodity.
