Residents urge plan to reconsider sidewalks on south end of Main Street for safety
Summary
Speakers asked the planning commission to note reconsideration of extending sidewalks to the south end of Main Street, citing safety for the five families who walk there and concerns about pedestrians in the roadway.
Participants raised pedestrian-safety concerns for families walking along the south end of Main Street, noting that previous outreach recorded only five households requesting sidewalks but that those households are the ones regularly walking in the road. One committee member suggested capturing a recommendation in the plan to reconsider sidewalks for that stretch to improve safety.
Planners and commissioners agreed the land-use chapter could reference future consideration of sidewalk extensions and that, even if the initial public response was small, the plan should document the safety concern and possible approaches for connecting neighborhoods to the village center.
