Make Welburn Avenue Safe — Add a Stop Sign Near Carmel Street and Diane court
The Issue
I’m Zoe Laguna, a 16-year-old from Gilroy who lives on Welburn Avenue near Carmel Street and Diane Court. Every day, cars speed down our street, putting kids, families, and pets in danger. It’s hard and scary to even pull out of our driveways or cross the road safely.
This morning, I found a cat that had been hit by a car and left in front of my house. It broke my heart — and sadly, this isn’t the first time, this cat is familiar to us and would come by the house. The animals and children in our neighborhood deserve better.
I’m asking the City of Gilroy to please install a stop sign or other traffic control measures on this section of Welburn Avenue. Slowing traffic will prevent accidents, save lives, and make our community safer for everyone.
Please sign and share this petition to show the City of Gilroy that we care and we need change now — before another life is lost.
