John you are quite correct about that intersection (Third and Jefferson). The two fences are absolutely right on the property lines. There is no safe way to ease out to see if there is another vehicle about to take your nose off.

So what will it take? Revocation of zero lot line permit? Politely asking the two homeowners to voluntarily give up parts of their yards? Telling them impolitely that they are going to lose parts of their yards? Hoping some well meaning individual takes one for the team and drives through both fences?

While on the subject of the bypass, what exactly was the thinking (I was not in KTN to hear this) concerning running all of the anticipated traffic through school zones, residential zones, blind intersections, public ball parks, narrow streets (Park), etc?
