Street & Alley committee discusses 2027 paving plan and local visibility concerns
Summary
Committee chair Jeff Smith outlined 2027 paving candidates and noted curbing assessments; council members flagged visibility issues at Williams Village and 6th Street NW and agreed to an on-site review with property owners.
Street & Alley Chairman Jeff Smith reported the committee discussed 2027 paving projects, including Fernsell Avenue between 5th Street SW and 7th Street SW; curbing for some projects would be assessed to property owners. Rosenberry suggested segmenting the Bodmer Avenue waterline work and using village employees for parts of it. The TAP grant project was also noted for 2027 planning.
Council discussed a safety and visibility issue at the intersection of Williams Village and 6th Street NW. Police said they are enforcing speed in the area, but Jason Marks said visibility—rather than speed—is the primary issue. Lewis Dreher proposed meeting at the site before the next council meeting to review concerns with property owners.
No specific engineering schedules or cost estimates for 2027 paving were recorded in the transcript beyond the committee’s planning discussion.
