Description
There is a group of kids that skateboard here almost every weekend. We have called the cops multiple times and there is apparently nothing to be done. We fear these kids, while they wear helmets are flying down this hill with limited vision of the giant SUVs that fly down Nottingham Rd., some of them coming from the local watering hole not to mention those on cell phones. These kids have had more than one close call and I can't believe they keep coming back. They are currently doing this in dusk/dark without reflectors. Additionally, the kids use curse words and homophobic language which does not promote a pleasant place to live. Can someone assist? Do we need a sign or speed bumps?

Kids are out there again today - cursing and in middle of street. Laughing and yelling when there are cars behind them - swerving eand not getting out of the way.
When you tell them the police have been called - they act as is that is a badge of honor. They need to be ticketed and their parents notified.
