Maren's answers on streets
Yes
No
Should every elementary school in Ward 4 have a staffed crossing at opening and closing time?
Maren’s answer: yes. Four schools share two crossing guards today (sample). She would fund two more posts from the ward’s road-safety budget.

No
Should the city repair sidewalks from a public list, worst first, instead of in the order complaints arrive?
Maren’s answer: yes. A published list lets every street see where it stands and stops the loudest block from jumping the queue.
Yes
No
Should every bus stop on Line 7 get a shelter and a bench within four years?
Maren’s answer: yes. Eleven of the nineteen stops in the ward have neither (sample). She would start with the stops nearest the clinic and the senior centre.
