Summary
Council members reviewed preliminary Transportation Alternatives mapping for Main Street sidewalks, said materials are not final and asked staff to hold a town hall or workshop to present plans to businesses and residents.
Council members discussed a Transportation Alternatives (TA) grant project for sidewalks on Main Street and the need for public engagement.
Unidentified Speaker 2 described maps included in meeting materials, referring to two preliminary design layers described in the packet as a "red" option and a second option that included additional segments highlighted in yellow. "It was a it's a preliminary," the speaker said when asked about the materials.
Unidentified Speaker 1 and others said many local businesses had not seen final plans. Speaker 1 requested a town hall or workshop so citizens and business owners could review the proposal and ask questions; Speaker 2 said such outreach typically occurs earlier in the process but agreed to schedule a presentation when more concrete materials are available.
Council members did not adopt or approve design details during the meeting; they directed staff to provide clearer maps and to plan public engagement about the TA sidewalk project, with timing to be determined once staff have more complete information.
