West Voorhis Avenue Streetscape Project

Summary

The CRA had to decide how much of the West Voorhis streetscape redesign to build with its $1.5 million in reserves. The project would narrow the road, slow traffic, and add wider sidewalks and bike accommodations. Picking the full Alternative 1 means borrowing about $220,000.
