Committee members described the plan as proactive and said portions of the work are already funded and under way.

Staff explained the plan grew out of the capital transportation improvement planning process. The intention is to use the methodology to prioritize projects and request budget approvals in FY26 for higher-priority items. Pavement management and crack-sealing programs were discussed as maintenance items that extend roadway life; staff said those programs are part of the plan at a high level and that field surveys will identify patching and crack-seal needs after winter.

Committee members raised a neighborhood-safety request tied to an upcoming Walton Ferry/Old Shackle realignment project (scheduled to begin in early February). Members asked staff to consider striping and traffic-calming measures on alternate cut-through routes (Harbor, Cumberland Shores, Luna Lane, Hickory Heights, Gaytone and others) so that neighborhoods rerouted around construction maintain safe operations. Staff said they would make a note and include the request under other business and project planning.

On signal synchronization, staff reported ongoing coordination with the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT). The project has multiple submission steps: plans, bid proposal and cost estimate; the plans and the disadvantaged-business enterprise component (DBE/DBE goal) have been approved, while other items remain under review. Staff said they submitted the Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) advertisement for approval and expect to have CEI under contract before the project goes to bid. Committee members discussed TDOT staffing and a state-level reorganization intended to accelerate local-program project review; staff said TDOT has reassigned leadership (Steve Allen) and is hiring engineers into local programs to shorten review timelines.

Committee members offered to meet with TDOT leadership to help expedite the Walton Ferry realignment and related projects; staff said such coordination would be helpful once the CEI and construction steps were further along. The committee voted to approve the draft infrastructure resiliency methodology and forward it to the board.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Hendersonville Public Works Committee 1/28/2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Public Works Committee approved a draft Infrastructure Resiliency Plan methodology and received a verbal update on traffic-signal synchronization work with TDOT, including document reviews, disadvantaged-business enterprise approvals and next steps for construction inspection contracting.","taxTitle","Public Works Committee Meetings, Hendersonville, Sumner County, Tennessee","taxId",74034,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6358361,"Committee hears operational update on trash collection; staff point to weather and communication tools",177,1069000,1246000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2212607-6c248e66260dd223c73a59eb97fda8a1&start=1069&end=1246","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2212607-6c248e66260dd223c73a59eb97fda8a1/thumbnail_1069000.jpg","/articles/6358361/Tennessee/Committee-hears-operational-update-on-trash-collection-staff-point-to-weather-and-communication-tools","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6358361-8711ef5c815e0edad8e9afb01821f567/orig.mp4?Expires=1773655316&Signature=PfwGc3amtFBbO~Cbkcn4owTbvKqqBL-gEdKj3rNpL9LYUCzPhaLTFzh93rWB6~64XM6ctEpA1e1DmyHpkzJclbU1c170KNbZn7oz9mrh7ZLwwRjWzZ66i98QTJwld2IA5JHOo-sUS~ykGlKmoA-ZXjZLW-KzyXSG9vxRnBTTjyaMOmJNiueWn2cZAzgT7MEst10lI5ac4Ct7bxIUv-SGseZjInmL0MfShqt6SxLol4l-KWymnKILZ~MBACc5gHaZA2Z3cJmOgUSPE0RKVholysZ6tZZeNuUGmQwuzo713tV6sKTeOT8H~3j0CV456v18srwVsUU-QqndPn3aG89Vsg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Public Works staff presented the committee with two graphs showing collection performance: a monthly collection report and a trend line of reported misses from July 1 through the end of the year. Staff said a clear spike in missed collections coincided with a snowy/icy event.

Committee members said some neighborhoods received follow-up pickups after the storm and noted that residents had contacted aldermen about missed collections. Staff confirmed crews returned to affected areas and said snow and weather-related conditions caused delays.

Staff and committee members recommended residents sign up for the city’s alert system (Code Red) and to select the \"general\" notice option so they receive non-emergency updates such as trash delays, minor traffic closures and holiday schedule changes. Staff reported nearly 10,000 subscribers citywide for that alert channel.

Committee members thanked communications staff (Casey) for posting public information notices and suggested aldermen continue to re-share those messages to reach residents through neighborhood networks.

No formal action was taken; the item served as an operational update and a reminder about resident communications and monitoring service performance.","Public Works staff presented service metrics showing missed-collection trends and spikes tied to winter storms; staff emphasized use of a city alert system and requested residents sign up for non-emergency 'general' notices to receive trash delay information.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6358366,"Committee approves use of flashing yellow arrows on city traffic signals under MUTCD guidance",540,520000,1060000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2212607-6c248e66260dd223c73a59eb97fda8a1&start=520&end=1060","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2212607-6c248e66260dd223c73a59eb97fda8a1/thumbnail_520000.jpg","/articles/6358366/Tennessee/Committee-approves-use-of-flashing-yellow-arrows-on-city-traffic-signals-under-MUTCD-guidance","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6358366-e62bfccf6d993768f60e9474cb4c9fd2/orig.mp4?Expires=1773655316&Signature=lq7EomRiM2TJF~C65Km~BectUO5e~jylQli9aFQIEjQnwLVDHvLzAf9S6wyz-3sLHxuK6oLFhvFwlndsqyEqV8TGW-bS5ftvcuo9~qIr1JjwxnakNB8-FGHbRpx80s8wd2uccPyyQxn~vlK5yxS6BWwxYS08EGRb2Jod6YL7j170kOYsSH6qJRBj23K9VJ63C1AK3MTpv18vuN93Nh7CmKDIH3F~OZcAH7J3DykyCM~DxwC1nh5a9px~9DfkyWikDzu~-DFa-jOxq7j0cALcu9qP1J-8EccWJmI7b0Rm4zT6f1HeZhBoFPMXrjg-SUyCh8k9U1WrqtAQe--qjj-h0A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Public Works Committee voted unanimously to approve Resolution 202503, authorizing use of flashing yellow arrows on city traffic signals where permitted by engineering studies and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).

Traffic engineer Chris Smith explained that flashing yellow arrows give more flexibility in left-turn phasing, reduce the so-called \"yellow trap\" risk associated with older five-section heads and can improve traffic flow by allowing permissive left turns when safe. He said flashing yellow arrows also allow timing strategies such as lead-lag left-turn phasing and time-of-day protection adjustments at locations with higher crash rates.

Staff said signs and a press release will accompany installations to inform drivers of the meaning of the indication. Committee members asked whether the city currently has signal equipment capable of the change; staff noted that the resolution approves use but does not appropriate funds. Implementation will follow engineering studies and, where additional equipment or maintenance is required, staff may request project funds in the FY26 budget.

Several members emphasized that the flashing yellow arrows cannot be implemented at every intersection and that each candidate location will be evaluated for safety and MUTCD compliance. The committee agreed to add Alderman Oliver Roberson as a sponsor along with Mayor Claring.","The Public Works Committee approved Resolution 202503 to authorize installation of flashing yellow arrow indications on traffic signals where studies and MUTCD criteria permit.

Committee members said the change codifies an arrangement already in practice and reduces repetitive annual petitions. The amended policy preserves the city’s ability to schedule and rotate field use and to require groups to request use through staff so fields can rest and recover.

The parks staff described that the 2023 policy gave the parks board authority to close fields at certain times for maintenance and allowed groups to petition for exceptions. Tennessee United Soccer first requested winter access immediately after the original policy passed; staff and the parks board approved the club’s request on a year-to-year basis for two seasons. Parks staff said the turf field availability has helped accommodate the added practices.

Committee members asked whether the amendment would allow other groups—such as tackle football, lacrosse or field hockey—to seek the same winter access. Staff replied the amendment formalizes the Tennessee United Soccer request only; other groups must petition the parks board. Staff also said scheduling remains controlled by staff (not an automatic blanket permission) so the city can designate which fields and when they may be used.

Committee discussion noted the amendment has worked without apparent harm for two seasons and that staff would return to the parks board if recurring requests from other groups warranted further changes.

Resolution 202448 was approved unanimously.","The Public Works Committee approved Resolution 202448 to amend the city parks field-use policy to formalize recurring winter use previously granted annually to Tennessee United Soccer Club, while preserving staff scheduling controls to protect field maintenance.","actionData","errors"]
