Hinman to Paid Lot I just returned from a Workplace Violence Prevention walk-through at ISSS and Trisha Marrapese, the new director, mentioned to me that she had fallen on a few occasions on the somewhat disquieting, unlit and uneven pathway leading from Hinman Commons to the Paid Parking Lot. This is a pathway she traverses frequently after dark. From what I understand, this walkway suffers from some other issues as well, in terms of its structure, so it may already be on your radar. As a former PSAC member (Trisha, PSAC is the Personal Safety Advisory Committee), I suspected your campus-by-night tour is likely on the horizon and I am writing to ask that you and your team investigate and escalate as appropriate. Thank you for your help. And best wishes to all for a happy holiday weekend! ~Lisa Lisa Havtur Time and Attendance Coordinator Human Resources Binghamton University PO Box 6000 Binghamton, NY 13902 607-777-3734 PENDING CONCERNS (solution in progress): Reporting of safety concerns is not clear Bill tried to report a problem and was told: Contact Environmental Health and Safety (incorrect) File it online (could not because a password is needed) Res-Life thinks they cannot submit a concern. For example – referring to the sidewalk in front of CIW (along lot Q1): Well, that’s not a “Residential” area so we can’t put in a request officially….but we’ve been asking to have it fixed for ages. Am not sure who the walk “belongs” to but it’s not us. If neither Bill nor Res-life know how to submit a concern, then who does? Resolution: Staff and students need to be instructed to call Customer Service at x2226 or email to report routine maintenance issues. Possible postings on Dateline. Nature Preserve Road closed during winter Contacts: Dylan Horvath and Julian Shepard Resolution: A study is being conducted to review pros and cons. Escorts Date Logged: 4/29/2012
