The Manchester Board Mayor & Aldermen Committee on Public Safety, Health and Traffic approved additions and an amendment to the committee’s traffic agenda during a brief meeting. The committee voted to add a “no parking anytime” designation for Davis Street and to amend a proposed 15-minute loading/unloading zone on Hanover Street.
The changes were introduced as an addendum to the traffic agenda. The Davis Street addition — described in the agenda as “no parking anytime on Davis Street either side to Agawam” — was brought forward at the request of Alderman Morgan and reviewed by Kristen Clark of the Department of Public Works, according to the agenda notation. The committee also considered a proposed amendment affecting a 15-minute loading/unloading zone on the south side of Hanover Street, described in the agenda as running "from 1.4 feet east of Pine Street to 1.5 feet further east" with a strike-through to remove dual-use spaces.
A motion to approve the traffic-addendum and the Hanover Street amendment was made and approved by voice vote. Alderman Berry was recorded as the mover and Alderman Morgan as the seconder; the chair called for the ayes and the motion carried.
The transcript records that the Department of Public Works reviewed the Davis Street request; no further operational details, effective dates, or enforcement plans were provided in the record. The agenda note did not specify whether the Davis Street restriction is measured from an intersection, curbline, or other landmark, and the numeric distances listed for the Hanover Street amendment appear as written in the agenda.
The committee took no additional public testimony on these items at the time recorded in the transcript and moved on after the voice vote.
