The purpose of this memo is to forward information regarding bus/walking policies of
School District 885 relative to CSAH 18 future improvements.
Our office. contacted the District offices and Don's Bus. Service to determine the
distance. students are permitted to walk to school and when busing is required. For K-6,
students who live one mile. or more from the school, and. where sidewalks are not
available, are bused to school. For 7-12, students who livetwo miles or more from the
school are bused.
When the southwest part of the City was discussed (adjacent to CSAH 18), staff was
advised that all students from this area of the City would likely be bused to schooL
One additional note: It was suggested that the City look into requiring a minimum cul-
de-sac size of 125' with no center island, to allow adequate atea for the buses to turn
around.
