6 issues in roads with low priority
Idlewood Lane street name change
Metro Emergency Services asked to rename a stub of Idlewood Lane to Hines Mill Way so it matches the street running through a new subdivision — a 911 addressing fix.
Fairdale roundabout beautification completion
District 13 was asked to cover the final $2,719.68 balance on the Fairdale roundabout beautification project.
Street closures in Schnitzelburg and vicinity
Two ordinances to close portions of East Jacob Street and East St. Catherine Street got first readings in Planning and Zoning.
Complete Streets Coalition vacancies and reappointments
Twelve appointments and reappointments to the Complete Streets Coalition — the board that weighs in on how streets are designed for walkers, bikers, and drivers — were all held, so the board's makeup remains unsettled.
Street and alley closures
Two routine right-of-way closures passed unanimously, but members questioned whether unanimous Planning Commission closures should even come to committee. A rules change exempting zoning items doesn't cover street closures.
Wolf Pen Branch Road scenic corridor
A beloved stretch of road between River Road and Chamberlain Lane is being nominated for local scenic corridor protection at residents' request.
