HEARING ON VIKING DRIVE
I am grateful for the forward thinking of the present
administration at Ricks College. They have planned for
the future of Ricks College. It has been ten years
since any building has been planned for the needed use
of the present students and teachers. I commend the
administration for their desires to expand the campus.
The committee that represented the college and the
community has given a recommendation. The community
should support the committee's decision. We should all
be in concert together to go forward with the expansion
of the campus. This will not only help the students
and teachers but will be a great boost for the city of
Rexburg.
The committee's decision to use seventh south as the
main artery to the campus is a good one. I would hope
that the city and Ricks College be united in making
this street a four lane street. This should be a four
lane street from 2nd east all the way to Anderson
lumber. It would also be safer for the students at the
middle school.
I have been by many schools in larger communities
where the traffic is heavy. Officials would rollout
their signs of 15 miles per hour during the day when
the students were coming to school and going home.
This has worked well for them.
We have a great opportunity to help Ricks College and
the City of Rexburg. let's work together and make this
happen.
Gerald Taylor
