Council directs staff to research additional crosswalks on Emerald Drive South near school routes
Summary
After prior discussion with the Kimberly School Board, the council directed staff to research additional crosswalks on Emerald Drive South between Center Street and 3600 North and requested a stakeholder meeting including school and public-safety staff.
The council unanimously directed city staff to research adding crosswalks on Emerald Drive South between Center Street and 3600 North, a corridor discussed at recent Kimberly School Board and council meetings. Council Member Ahlm moved the direction and Council Member Holmgren seconded; the motion passed on roll call.
City/P&Z Administrator Craig Eckles recommended a stakeholder meeting including Brian Reed (City Engineer/Public Works), Chief Bunderson, school staff and himself to evaluate crossing locations and safety solutions. The council framed the directive as a research step rather than a commitment to specific infrastructure or funding.
