Residents press Sewall's Point for more side-street repaving amid flood projects
Summary
Multiple residents told the commission the town's side streets need repaving and that capital flood projects have left some local roads in poor condition. Commissioners acknowledged the concern and tied repaving plans to grant-funded capital work.
At the public comment portion of the hearing, residents urged commissioners to prioritize repaving side streets that have deteriorated while the town pursues major flood-mitigation and road-raising projects.
A long-time resident said side streets "look like crap" and urged allocating millions to restore neighborhood roads. Commissioners responded that the town has prioritized major projects like river-road work to protect low-lying properties and that repaving decisions are constrained by available grant funding and project sequencing. The commission said it will continue to evaluate pavement schedules alongside grant and capital-fund availability.
