During a recent government meeting, officials discussed plans to enhance pedestrian safety with the installation of two new crosswalks. The proposed crosswalks are strategically located in an area where sidewalks are present, ensuring safe passage for pedestrians. A public hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, with all necessary notices and signage already distributed to the affected community.

Concerns were raised regarding accessibility for individuals on the lower side of Allgood, where there are currently no sidewalks. Officials clarified that the decision to limit crosswalks to areas with existing sidewalks was made to ensure safety and practicality.

In addition to pedestrian safety discussions, the meeting also addressed the need for an executive session to discuss three key items: property acquisition, mediation updates, and ongoing litigation. A motion was made to enter the executive session, highlighting the importance of these matters in the context of local governance and community development. The session aims to provide a confidential environment for officials to deliberate on sensitive issues affecting the community.
