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
