During the meeting’s non‑agenda public comment period, resident Jennifer La Cross urged the council to address traffic flow and safety at intersections serving Carlton Oaks School, identifying Wethersfield Road, De Vos Drive and Carlton Oaks Drive as problem locations.
Another speaker using the name or handle "Truth" spoke about the need for more businesses and events for people in their 20s and 30s, and urged safer crosswalks and consideration of roundabouts as traffic solutions. Brenda Hammond read a quotation from Dr. Seuss and expressed concern about cooperation between ICE and local law enforcement.
