Minutes:
Insufficient
parking spaces
Ahmed Suroor
talked about the problems and solutions (he thinks that making wider spaces for
the parking can help students come to the class early. Mohammed Ahmed said they
have to erase some green places to provide parking. A lot of student’s comesto
the college with ahuge cars, like GMC trucks, and these cars take a big
space.
Illegal
parking positions
Ahmed Suroor
said the consequences should be taken to people who park illegally, like
tickets and warnings. Eissa Tayib said
we should have better security and better consequences.
Not enough
space to park
Ahmed Suroor
said we should remove some green areas to make wider parking spaces so more
parking can be placed. Mohammed
Ahmed said they have to erase some green places to provide parking. A lot of students come to the
college with huge cars and this car takes a big space.
Very high
pavements
Ahmed Suroor
said the pavements are very high and they take a lot of space causing fewer
parking spaces. Eissa Tayib said they should be removed and barriers should be
placed to take less space.
Many
oversized humps causing congestion
Ahmed Suroor
said the humps are very unnecessary and oversized because it takes time going
over them and some cars cannot go over them. Ahmed Abdulkareem said the humps
cause the cars to flow slowly causing congestion.
No shade for
the cars
Ahmed Abdulkareem
said that shade for the cars is critical; because of the heat cars might break
down and may get too hot to drive. Ahmed Suroor agreed and thinks the shade
would be better for heat problems in the car.
Making
better parking spaces would help in the studies of the students causing them to
arrive to class on time; entering and exiting the parking would be easier and
illegal parking would be banned and consequences will be provided; the humps
would be reduced causing easier flow and better parking abilities.
In conclusion,
we discussed with mister Headly an important issue it was parking’s in the
college, after that we talked about the causes of the main problem and we put
some solutions.
-we need
wider parking
-its good if
the college put for us shade for the cars
- The
pavements are highs, we need a lower one
- The high
humps is the most important problem for the college students
