During a recent government meeting, community members raised significant concerns regarding traffic safety and wildlife preservation in their area. One resident highlighted the presence of a small deer herd that frequents their property, emphasizing the importance of maintaining wildlife habitats amidst increasing development.
The resident also pointed out the dangers associated with Whitetail Road, particularly at the top of Hanky Hill, where visibility is limited due to the steep incline. They noted that traffic has been steadily increasing, with more vehicles using the road as a shortcut to White's Hill golf course and nearby farms. This rise in traffic, coupled with the occasional use of the road by large farm machinery and semi-trucks, has heightened safety concerns among residents.
Additionally, the resident expressed worries about the potential impact of new driveways being added at the top of the hill, which could exacerbate the already hazardous conditions. The community is calling for measures to address these issues to ensure both the safety of drivers and the protection of local wildlife.
