November 26, 2024
Following the decision to table the project by City Council at the July 23, 2024, council meeting, city staff has been collecting additional resident input about the project, including an open house that was held on October 23, 2024.
Based on the input received from residents, city staff will present the option to replace the asphalt and bituminous curb as it exists today as the preferred project. This was the preference of the majority of property owners and is a change from what was originally presented. This option eliminates the proposed concrete curb and gutter. We will cover all input received in this presentation, including concerns about Pike Lake Trail, the rural nature of the neighborhood, and maintenance concerns. The City Council will then consider whether or not to advance this project.
The City Council meeting will take place November 26, 2024, at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting at 7:00 P.M in the City Council Chamber at City Hall. The City Council closed the public hearing at the July 23, 2024, meeting and will not be taking any additional public comments regarding this project at this meeting. You can review the presentation slides here.
