New Sidewalks!
I'm sure we've all noticed the new sidewalks going in around town. the sidewalks, along with some new "hot" light crosswalk poles are making it much safer to walk around town, especially for kids going to and from the schools.
The city was able to get a grant to pay for the new sidewalks and lights. We still have a final piece of the plan to complete with a walking path along 3rd south, as we announced and sought public comment on back in July 2022: blog post on new sidewalk plan
We recognize and appreciate the adjustments that will have to be made by those living along 3rd South as the new walking path is constructed along the city right of way. We will do all we can to minimize the inconvenience to property owners along the route.
The new walking path will be a great help to the residents on the south side of town, especially to kids heading to school. The path is also part of our alternate transportation plan and comprehensive plan.
