City Council Faces Urgent Safety Concerns Over Local Roads
During a recent city council meeting, officials reviewed community feedback gathered from a series of public workshops and outreach events held between May and June. The discussions highlighted ongoing concerns regarding road safety and infrastructure improvements in the area.

Council member Mister Peralez raised specific safety issues related to the planned projects on Road 44 and Road 36, emphasizing the need for a canal bridge and walking path to enhance safety for children and residents accessing a nearby gas station. He noted that the current setup forces pedestrians, particularly children on bicycles, to cross busy streets without adequate sidewalks, posing significant risks.

Additionally, Peralez suggested that future public outreach efforts should commence earlier in May to encourage greater community participation, as he observed limited engagement during the recent feedback period.

A resident from Road 56 also voiced concerns about the narrow roads in their neighborhood, which have become increasingly hazardous due to inconsistent road widening following new construction. The resident highlighted the dangers posed to children riding bikes and pedestrians, urging the council to consider expanding the roads to improve safety.

The council concluded the meeting with a commitment to review the feedback and consider the recommendations for future infrastructure projects, aiming to address the community's safety concerns effectively.
