Residents press council on striping, turning light, pothole repairs and cybersecurity evaluation
Summary
During public comment, residents asked for updates on park-exit striping, a turning light at Buckhannon Pike and Pennsylvania Avenue, pothole repairs at Bryan Street & Indiana Avenue, and asked about the town's cybersecurity evaluation required by the WV Public Service Commission.
Several residents used the public-comment period to press the council for updates on local traffic and infrastructure issues. Dennis Dutchess requested an update on striping from the park exit to near Taqueria LouLous; Code Enforcement Officer Wade Keith said crews are waiting on the contractor and estimated repairs to be about one to two months out. Mike Curran asked whether a turning light could be installed at the Buckhannon Pike and Pennsylvania Avenue intersection and inquired about speed‑bump planning; the mayor noted he had attempted contact with the West Virginia Department of Highways but had not yet received a response.
Resident Jennifer Robinson asked about a pothole at Bryan Street and Indiana Avenue; staff said the repair is in progress. Robinson also asked whether there was a cap on the cybersecurity evaluation required by the West Virginia Public Service Commission; council members noted a time crunch because of late notification and that scheduling and potential involvement of other departments is being coordinated.
