City Council enthusiastic for pedestrian safety improvements 2015-03-03 - City Hall Council meeting room, 116 Campbellsville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. It was a Red Letter day in City Hall last night, when Mary Ann Loy, at podium, right, gave a detailed account of simple solutions the City could do to improve pedestrian safety all around Columbia, and got an enthusiastic reception from Mayor Curtis Hardwick, Mayor Pro Tem Ron Rogers, and other members of the council. Above, clockwise, are (Rogers), Councillors Charles Grimsley and Mark D. Harris (both partially hidden); City Clerk Rhonda Loy; Mayor Hardwick, City Attorney Marshall Loy; Councillors Craig Dean, Linda Waggener and Craig Lasley. Councillor Waggener urged the Council to take immediate action by following Mary Ann Loy's suggestion, to split up areas of the community and walk the area and come back with suggestions to improve conditions for pedestrians, those who walk for health, those who must use streets for mobility scooters. Most of the council claimed sections early. Former Mayor Mark D. Harris endorsed the plan, and commented that the new Payroll Tax should help to finance needed painting, striping, and marking projects. - ED WAGGENER Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
