The Master Plan draft was sent from the Planning Commission to the City Commission on 2024-08-08. The City Commission is expected to accept the plan on 2024-08-13, which will begin the required 63 day public review period on 2024-08-14. If accepted the required review period will complete on 2024-10-16. At that point the Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on 2024-10-24 and recommend the City Commission adopt the plan. The City Commission will then schedule and hold a public hearing on 2024-11-19. The City Commission will ratify the plan, most likely, on 2024-12-03.

There is currently two road reconstruction projects underway, one designed and one in design. These projects address Wealthy St, through East Town, from Richard Terrace Ave east to the city limits. Public engagement for the section from Ethel Ave to the city limit (east) was conducted in 2022. The second phase from Ethel Ave west to Richard Terrace Ave, a length of about two blocks, is currently in the design phase and public engagement is open. A future third phase will address Wealty St from Lake Drive to Woodmere.

There is a lot, very quietly, happening in the transportation space. On the surface not much is changing, other than related to ride-hailing / car-sharing, which I will cover first. Meanwhile, down below in the civic forges the bellows are pumping; we are either shaping the beginnings of a different future, or at least witnessing the death gasps of the status-quo. If voters choose wisely next month the stage is set for change; but we’ve been here before, don’t count those chickens just yet.
