Trustee seeks public meeting on Harvard Street bike-lane plan after resident concerns
Trustee Taglia told colleagues the board should schedule a public meeting for village staff and residents to address concerns about the Harvard Street segment of the village's bike plan. Taglia said she and Trustee Tracy Wesley met with about 30 residents who raised questions about how Harvard Street was selected, changes to car‑volume criteria in the plan, revisions to budget estimates and limited opportunities to get specific answers.

Taglia proposed scheduling a meeting between the June 3 bike plan study session and the planned vote in July so the concerns could be aired without delaying the overall process. "I think it would be beneficial to all concerned to have this airing," she said.

Several trustees acknowledged staff outreach already undertaken but supported the idea of an additional dedicated public meeting for Harvard Street neighbors to present concerns and receive detailed staff responses before the vote.

Ending: Staff did not schedule a meeting at the session but trustees directed staff to consider Taglia's request and confirm whether a focused public meeting can be held between the study session and the July vote.
