Nothing seems to bring out the public like a hearing on a proposed street project.
There was a great turnout for the initial public hearing for the 1998 street project July 2, and another good turnout for the council meeting on July 9. A map of the plan area and summary of the engineer's feasibility study is available in city hall for public view. The city council has not yet sent the plan to the city engineer, so no blueprints or detailed plans are available. A lot of work, planning, and consideration has been put into the comprehensive infrastructure plan by the public works committee, and the committee's recommendation is well-based. The council must now decide whether to proceed or not, and if to preceed, what details to include in the plan when presented to the engineer for consideration.
