Mayor says TAP project cannot start until 2027; council discusses LHTAC visit
Summary
Mayor Wanda Irish reported that LHTAC will not allow the Transportation Alternatives Program project to start until 2027 and asked to remove it from the agenda; Councilmember Charlie Shutt said an LHTAC representative will visit in May, opening an opportunity for a local workshop.
Mayor Wanda Irish told the council that, according to information she received from HMH, the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) project cannot begin until 2027 and she "would like to take it off the agenda." Councilmember Charlie Shutt said he had contacted LHTAC and that a representative is scheduled to visit the area in May, which the council could use to arrange a workshop or further community engagement.
The council did not vote to remove the item at this meeting; instead the discussion identified both a scheduling constraint and a near-term opportunity to meet with a LHTAC representative. No formal action was recorded to alter project timelines; mayoral and council comments indicated staff and members will use the May visit to explore next steps.
