Trucks

  • Increase in truck traffic has to be managed better with more options to direct truck traffic out of already congested areas.

  • Parking in Downtown must be managed better. Supposed parking committee formed by Mayor months ago with no update. Simple solution: timed parking management employees have to move away from business front doors.
