CCCA General Meeting May 19, 2021

Posted on May 23, 2021July 26, 2021 By cfuller603

Apologies for the technical difficulties in live streaming on Facebook and delay in posting subsequently.  You can view it on YouTube here or on Facebook here, even if you don’t have a Facebook account.   It was a very good and informative meeting with two excellent presentations:  the Long Bridge Park Aquatic Center and the National Park Service general presentation of projects in our area.

The fee schedule is included in the Aquatic Center presentation and can also be seen here. The slide show presentation is very large and will be uploaded when the County provides us with a link. In the meantime, you can see photos on the project website here.

The slide show presentation by the NPS can be viewed here. It was disappointing however to learn that the 2012 study for Roaches Run went nowhere and will have to be redone. But that will only happen if we convince the County Board that this is important. Stay tuned for more information on a coming campaign to urge an ecological development of Roaches Run.

How can citizens get involved and help?   To help with invasive plants, look for Weed Warrior training and then sign up.  Also, check the NPS volunteer web site to see specific volunteer opportunities (mostly group activities) or join the appropriate NPS Friends Group.

Early Work for Army Navy Drive Protected Bike Lane Project Starting Week of Nov. 10Army Navy Drive Protected Bike Lane ProjectStarting the week of November 10, crews will begin preparations for construction between South Joyce Street and Memorial Drive. In the first weeks of work, crews will be installing tree protection which will be in place for the duration of construction, demolishing the center median at the South Joyce Street intersection, as well as manhole work and other work within the road.During this time, the lanes closest to the median will close on Army Navy Drive between South Joyce Street and South Lynn Street. Car traffic will shift to the outer lanes. The northbound bike lane will be closed, and bicyclists will share the traffic lane. The southbound bike lane will remain open. About the Project This project will add bike lanes along Army Navy Drive, sidewalk and curb ramp improvements, and streetlight and storm sewer improvements within the project area. The project is expected to be completed in spring of 2027 as weather permits. Learn more and sign up for newsletter updates on the project page.
