- Taft Middle School pick-up and drop-off Under review
Next: The next meeting with the school district is planned for January 2027. The agreed next steps are to look at traffic calming, such as concrete medians, and other pick-up layouts; get more traffic help at dismissal; keep enforcing parking rules in the pick-up zones; and find funding for pedestrian safety work. The City and the district also mentioned repainting curbs, widening the driveway and adding sidewalk signs. After the meeting, some attendees discussed adding parking in front of the school by removing red curb that buses no longer need. The councilmember's office said it would look into parking limits at set times in the Ruffin Road cul-de-sac.
