Some More Information on the Nicholson Project

City Engineer Kyle Vandercar had an excellent presentation about the planned Nicholson Avenue reconstruction project on Tuesday — a preview of the public information meeting planned for May 26.

• You can see a copy of the fact sheet shared at the meeting here.
• Click here to see the letter sent to area residents promoting the public information meeting.
• And here is a PDF of the official public information meeting notice.

I hope to see you at the meeting, planned for 5 to 7 p.m. next Wednesday at City Hall.

The meeting on Tuesday night provided me my first real glimpse at the options, and I like what I saw.

I go into this thinking some type of widening is necessary to address what I believe is an unsafe road that can no longer handle the amount of traffic that uses it every day. The two options on the table are both four lanes — one with a median, one without. There are pros and cons of both, and I’d like to hear what you think at the public information meeting … and learn more about the project myself.
