7. Excerpted from Resident Support Letter: I have lived here 4 ½ years at 397 Baston Trailer Park. Both sides of loop are packed with holes and mud. My truck is a Toyota Highlander 2008 that got stuck on the wet land when it was raining. My friend pulled me out with a new pickup truck from the grass because the road was so bad. This was 6-7 months ago in August 2014. Also, next door to me a handicap kid rides the short bus. The bus driver lets him off at the end of the road at the loop because she does not want to go thru the holes where the water is. (383 Baston) The people who lived there before them had a small car. They moved 4 months ago also, one of the reasons is because the car did get stuck, and they had to get a jeep to pull them out. (383 Baston) The Baptist Church bus would pull in my yard on Wednesdays because they did not want to go around. P.S. My Step dad was driving too fast about 30 mph & his car hit a bump & hit a tree. Someone cut the tree down and painted the stump orange.
