During public comment, resident Patty Lack (4108 Forest Hill Road) asked the committee to address safety at a bus stop beside the Dollar General store adjacent to apartment complexes. She said pedestrians often "dart out in front of those cars," and expressed concern that conversion of the road to a five-lane configuration would increase the likelihood of an accident.
