Residents raise sidewalk access and replacement concerns at Stronghurst meeting
Summary
Residents told the board that parked vehicles and an unfinished stretch of sidewalk present safety and accessibility problems; Police Chief Arbry Vancil told the board he addressed a blocking vehicle and the owner will remove it. A resident also asked whether Stronghurst signage/location would be updated near the water tower.
Several residents used the Nov. 4 meeting to press the board about sidewalk safety and maintenance. Dave Knutstrom "voiced his concern on vehicles blocking the sidewalks and not creating a clear path to be walked down," and the minutes say Police Chief Arbry Vancil has addressed the issue with the homeowner and the obstruction "will be removed."
Randy Jarvis asked whether the sidewalk in front of his property could be completed now that a tree had been removed and also asked if Stronghurst "was ever going to be put on the other side of the water tower," a matter Mayor Brendan Schaley said he would check into and report back. The board did not set a timetable for repairs or a follow-up in the minutes.
