Folks, I received this complaint about the single egress issue in the new Bear Creek Subdivision. Shall I go ahead and respond or would one of you like to take the wheel?
Thanks,
Andy

Hi,
I live in the Bear Creek subdivision just off 211 here in Molalla. I contacted ODOT with my question but they referred me to you.
We only have one entrance/exit street off Hezzie Ln in this complex of about 100 homes. There are probably 5 or more dead end streets out of here but they are all blocked off. People park on both sides of the streets in here so we have to move over when another car is coming. Big trucks and delivery vans park in the street and there is no other way to get out of here when that happens.
I feel this is a dangerous situation. If an emergency like a fire or medical issue came up and the street was blocked it would be critical.
I’ve read that one entrance can help if there is a burglary and they want to trap the burglar but that is a rare issue.
Do you have any plans to open up one of these dead ends and give us another way in and out of here? South Molalla Forest Road is just to the west of us but is blocked off. Couldn’t that be opened up??
Please get back to me on this. I’d appreciate it!
Thanks, Lynne Harrington
