Veterans group seeks one-way on Pine Street; board tables to contact abutters
Summary
The Veterans Association asked to make Pine Street one-way from Robeson to Seabury to open parking on both sides for veterans using a busy food pantry; the board agreed to contact abutters and return the matter next month.
The Veterans Association requested that Pine Street be made one-way from Robeson to Seabury so the association could open parking on both sides in front of the veterans center and reduce conflicts during the pantry’s busy periods.
A representative for the veterans said the center frequently runs a food pantry and that on-site parking is limited; vehicles used by veterans often receive tickets when the park-side spaces are full. The board noted recent accidents at the Robeson/Pine corner and the presence of a mill entrance and park across the street, which could affect turning movements and truck access.
Board members voted to table the request for one month while staff contacts abutters and other affected property owners to solicit opinions. Staff will return the item with any feedback and a recommendation.
