Commercial access onto substandard residential road near Dunnellon

Summary

Residents worry commercial traffic from a new mini-storage site will be dumped onto 19-foot-wide Southwest 196th Avenue, where pedestrians and kids walk in the travel lane. The county engineer testified under oath that access will go to U.S. 41 with cross-access instead, and the applicant agreed.
