Commissioners push to adjust stop sign, debate repaving policy
Summary
Commissioner Maryellen Howley successfully requested moving a stop sign to meet regulations and pressed the commission to repave city streets; the commission agreed to the stop-sign move but did not vote on repaving after receiving professional assessments advising against immediate repaving.
Commissioner Maryellen Howley asked the commission to move a stop sign at the corner of Oread Road and Druid Hills closer to the corner to comply with regulations; commissioners agreed to the change.
Howley said she believes the city has sufficient funds and that the streets need repaving. Mayor Mark Joyce said the city has received two professional opinions that the streets do not require repaving now. Commissioner Brian Willis said the commission can revisit repaving if the roads deteriorate to a structural level.
Howley also reported progress on front entrance improvements, which she estimated would be completed by Christmas, and said she is working on the city’s snow removal contract. Commissioner Brian Willis reported feedback from L4 regarding parking regulations for drop-off at Chenoweth Elementary.
No formal vote to repave the streets was taken at the meeting.
