Summary
Two residents thanked first responders and raised neighborhood concerns: Tammy Kirby praised a rapid fire response; Judy Haddam described low water pressure at her home (about 40 PSI), raised concerns about delivery trucks parking in streets, and asked the city to address visible homelessness.
Medina — During public comment at the City Council’s final 2025 meeting residents offered thanks to first responders and raised local quality‑of‑life issues that they asked the city to address.
Tammy Kirby of 246 West Friendship Street thanked the fire and police departments for their response to a house fire on her block over Thanksgiving weekend, saying quick response helped keep damage limited and everyone safe.
Judy Haddam of 743 Victoria Circle told the council she has experienced low water pressure at her house for about 25 years and said her household registers about 40 PSI compared with roughly 120 PSI elsewhere in Medina. She said City staff member Nino is assisting and that a project estimate is expected in January; she also said a new nearby development could further affect pressure in her neighborhood.
Haddam also raised concerns about delivery trucks (Amazon and FedEx) frequently parking in streets instead of residents’ driveways, saying they create daily traffic impediments. She concluded by raising concern about visible homelessness in Medina and said she did not want people harmed but preferred not to have individuals living in visible public locations when visitors arrive in town.
City staff acknowledged the water-pressure complaint and said a project estimate is forthcoming; engineering follow-up was indicated.
