Chesnee officials discuss crosswalk near schools; DOT to engineer but city funding required
Summary
City Administrator Delisa Coggins told the council the South Carolina Department of Transportation would provide engineering for a proposed crosswalk by the middle and high schools, but construction funding would fall to the school district and the city; the issue was tabled for later consideration.
City Administrator Delisa Coggins updated the Chesnee City Council on a safety project for a crosswalk near the middle and high schools at the Dec. 8 meeting, saying she had been communicating with Representative Brian Lawson and that the Department of Transportation would handle engineering for the project but the school district and the city would need to provide construction funding.
Coggins asked council members to note that while DOT would do the engineering work, actual implementation would depend on funding allocations from the district and the city. Council members did not take further action on the item and the discussion was tabled for a later meeting.
No specific cost estimates, timeline for construction, or formal funding commitments were recorded in the minutes. The transcript records that the council and administrator plan to continue coordination with the district and DOT on next steps.
