City plans public survey and meeting on converting a downtown four-lane to three-lane and Sixth Street intersection
Summary
City staff said a consultant will prepare a plan and contract for a project focused on converting a four-lane street to three lanes and improvements at the Sixth Street/Dairy Queen corner; public survey and outreach are planned with a possible first meeting in August.
City staff said the city will commission a plan and public engagement process focused on converting a four-lane section downtown to a three-lane cross section and on improvements at the Sixth Street/Dairy Queen Corner intersection.
The staff member said the consultant will prepare the plan and a contract that will return to the council for approval. The public process will include an online survey for community comments and at least one public meeting to present findings and gather additional input. The staff member said the project's early timeline suggested a first meeting in August, but the meeting could slip to the second August meeting depending on scheduling.
Staff framed the outreach as targeted to opinions about lane configuration and the corner intersection; no design or funding decisions were finalized at the meeting. The staff member said the consultant's work and a returned contract would be the next formal step to the council.
