Holmes Avenue resurfacing contract

Summary

After a test closure that 52% of surveyed residents opposed, the council chose to keep Holmes Avenue open between 27th and 28th Streets and add two speed tables instead, as part of a $1.1 million resurfacing project. A resident raised concerns about speed table ride quality and children walking to the middle school.
