With Comcast's neverending price hikes, data usage caps, and poor customer service, all of which is in line with its "competitors," it would be great to see Goodlettsville follow the lead of towns like Chattanooga and bring a 1Gbps municipally-owned fiber network to Goodlettsville residents. If Goodlettsville isn't feeling that progressive and adventurous, it would still be great to see Google Fiber expansion make its way from Nashville to Goodlettsville.

Suggest allowing the Gazebo next to City Hall once per month during the Summer on Sunday afternoons for the local community band to play for about an hour.

It would be dangerous for our youth to have fun on their bikes and skateboards on moss wright park because of the possibility of hitting other pedestrians and vehicles and not only that it influences them to go on other private properties.
Starting the making of the skatepark on either moss wright park or in other park facilities in Goodlettsville would fix this idea.
It would be a great idea if this would get acted on as soon as possible to avoid potential harm for our youth and at the same time accomodate the community, even making something as simple as making a ledge or a simple rail at the skatepark is a good start.

Recommend hosting a quarterly cleanup along the streets in and around Goodlettsville. Specifically, Dickerson Rd from City Hall to the 31W and 41 split; along Conference Dr; on East Cedar Dr; along the loops by the interstate; and down Two Mile Pike. We want to keep Goodlettsville a desirable community and prevent it from becoming an eye-sore when driving down the streets and depreciating the value of businesses and residences. The idea is to make Goodlettsville an attractive, clean, safe, desirable, productive and prosperous town.

I have found myself battling this very real and very scary disease. I have Neurosarcoidosis. I am in a current relapse. My lesions are found on my brain and cause me to have many symptoms. It is hard to fathom what it feels like to go to bed fine one night and wake up with your mouth numb and no taste buds.... leading to days, weeks, or months of new symptoms. I have hallucinated, in the past (2012), lost balance (stumbling down the halls, 2012), experienced blind spots (2012), vertigo (2012), facial numbness (all three relapses '12, '13, and current), numbness and weakness in left limbs, dizziness, panic attacks (current), facial tingling that triggers weakness in left side, and the list goes on.

With the increased traffic around Nashville, and when I-65 is backed up, people are using Lickton Pike/Old Springfield Pike to go from Nashville to Goodlettsville/Hendersonville/Greenbriar/Springfield. Because traffic light at the intersection of Dickerson Rd and Old Springfield Pike does not stay GREEN very long for the vehicles turning left onto Dickerson Rd, it is creating large backups along Old Springfield Pike. This can be mitigated somewhat by adding a third lane on Old Springfield Pike from Hitt Lane to Dickerson Rd.

The Old Springfield Pike and Dickerson Rd intersection has been extremely prone to accidents. This last incident, the cross-walk posts have not been replaced for over a month.
There are obvious actions to help prevent further accidents and damage.
First, the speed limit for southbound traffic on Dickerson Rd (from the 31W and 41 merger to Old Springfield Pike) needs to be consistently enforced.
Second, the markings for the far right lane (which only turns onto Old Springfield Pike) need to be blatant. Specifically, (1) a large white arrow should be painted on the road showing the "Right turn only"; (2) thre should be one or two LARGE yellow signs on the right side of the road stating "Right Lane Ends - Right turn Only" - the current small white square signs are totally inadequate; (3) the triangular curbs and posts need to be coated with reflective tape/paint along with a possible flashing caution light; and (4) a possible guard rail or barrier protecting the posts/curb.

Clean litter and trash along Dickerson Rd from about 31W liquors north to the intersection of Dickerson Rd and Old Springfield Pike. There is quite a bit of trash/litter on both sides of Dickerson Rd especially around the railroad overpass. Additionally, there is trash in the vacant lot across from the old KOA campground as well as driving down Old Springfield Pike. Although the foliage is now coming out and hiding some of the trash along the side of the road, the trash is still there (beer cans, bottles, fast food sacks, etc., etc., etc.).

Main Street has become increasingly polluted by noise from PURPOSEFULLY LOUD VEHICLES and it IS DISTURBING THE PEACE. I do not know whether or not Goodlettsville has a vehicle noise ordinance already in place but I support further legislation and enforcement in order to lower the obnoxious noise from motorists that drive through Goodlettsville daily. It is a combination of overly loud cars, trucks and motorcycles that are using modified mufflers and exhaust systems that make their vehicles louder and more intrusive to the peace than need be. Please step up legislation and/or enforcement in order to curtail this ASAP.

The other is Dickerson Rd north of Brick Church Pike and especially around the trailer park areas. With Public Works located right off of E. Cedar St., surely this is seen every day by the Public Works leadership.? There should be a frequent and continual effort to clean these areas up.

Now is the time (before Spring foliage grows back) to remove/clean all litter, debris and trash along many of the streets around Goodlettsville. Specifically areas underneath I-65 and Long Hollow, Main St on the north end of town (especially along side the trailer parks), Old Springfield Pike, E Cedar St (especially by the train trestle), all on/off ramps near I-65, the area near the train trestle and Dickerson Rd, and many others. Not only does all the litter create an unsightly appearance for the city, much of this trash flows into nearby by streams, creeks and waterways. Likewise, the depreciation of property values due to people constantly throwing litter into nearby yards.

The city of Goodlettsville continues to struggle with keeping a clean and litter free community. If we want to establish Goodlettsville as a clean, safe, friendly, prosperous, and "preferred place to live", we need to take consistent steps and actions that achieve those goals. Part of which is keeping a clean, litter-free community. Keeping it clean consistently has the deterrent effect of making people more hesitant to throw out trash/litter from their vehicles if the roadsides, are already litter free. However, the opposite affect is true if litter is already prevalent along a road or interchange, then people think "it doesn't matter, there is already trash there, so another fast food paper sack or beer bottle won't matter." It's about attitude and perception, and we need to create a city with the attitude we don't stand for litter/trash in our community. It starts with city leadership and permeates from there.

As you enter Old Springfield Pike from Dickerson Rd., along the right side, there is a vacant lot where the curb along the road runs about half way down. After the curb ends, apparently people are using that area for u-turns, 4-wheeling, etc. This area (which is across from the Grand Ole RV campground), is becoming a mud pit (especially after any rain). An extended curb should help to reduce or eliminate this eye sore and keep the land in good condition.

Recommend Public Works, if not already implemented, establish a consistent and frequent roadside cleanup schedule. Suggest monthly street inspections and cleanups. Areas requiring close and frequent attention are all the on- and off-ramp areas around I-65. Examples of other streets with frequent litter are Cedar Ave., northern Dickerson Rd., (between Dorris and Old Springfield Pike....with focus around the train trestle and the trailer park areas). Even Main St., in front of the old high school is accumulating a lot of litter. Conference Dr., from the top of the hill to the bypass is another area. Frequent cleanups will help in the effort, but we also need increased education, awareness and publicity reminding citizens of the no litter laws and associated fines, as well as environmental and economic impacts. Finally, enforcement is required, whether code enforcement for businesses to keep their areas clean or general fines to citizens for littering.
