Aldermen press for pothole repairs and MoDOT school‑traffic plans
Summary
Aldermen raised repeated concerns about potholes on Lucas and Division streets and asked about MoDOT progress on installing a traffic signal on Highway 23 for the new high school; PW Superintendent Kyle Hamrick said asphalt is due next week and crews will fill potholes.
Aldermen at the April 7 Knob Noster Board meeting pressed staff for timelines on street repairs and school‑traffic mitigation ahead of the next school year. Alderman Smith asked specifically about heavy potholing on Lucas Street and whether MohDOT (MoDOT) had moved forward on a traffic signal for Highway 23 to address anticipated school traffic; PW Superintendent Kyle Hamrick told the Board that asphalt delivery is expected next week and he would take care of the potholes.
Mayor Byerly said he and the City Administrator met with 'Marcella from MoDot' about the new high school traffic issues and will raise the topic at the Mayor's Council meeting in Jefferson City on April 15. The discussion did not include a firm timeline from MoDOT for signal installation; aldermen asked staff to continue pursuing the agency and to schedule repairs on Division Street as soon as materials are on site.
