Lilburn council considers resurfacing Poplar Street; cobblestone option and temporary no-yellow-line plan discussed
Summary
Councilmembers discussed resurfacing Poplar Street with options including full resurfacing, targeted cobblestone to mark a city entrance, and temporary removal of yellow center lines as a traffic calming measure; Public Works will seek quotes.
Lilburn councilmembers discussed repaving Poplar Street and weighed options including full resurfacing, adding cobblestone in select areas to mark a city entrance, and temporarily resurfacing without yellow center lines as a traffic calming measure.
Mike Helton volunteered to gather quotes for traffic calming, resurfacing, and cobblestone options. The council did not adopt a formal resurfacing contract or award at the July 1 meeting; the discussion focused on design choices and cost estimates and on including traffic calming in broader city planning.
Councilmembers also discussed possibly resurfacing the street immediately and omitting yellow center lines as a short-term measure until a broader city plan is developed. No funding authorization was recorded at the meeting; the transcript links resurfacing to 2023 SPLOST (transportation) as a potential funding source.
No schedule, contractor names, or dollar amounts were provided in the transcript.
