Welburn Avenue traffic calming and crosswalk
Summary
The Wellbourne Nursery's 7:30-9 a.m. drop-off and 3:15-5:15 p.m. pickup collide with narrow streets, parked cars, church traffic and delivery trucks. Neighbors and board members want a real fix — flashing beacons, a relocated crosswalk, or off-street drop-off — before this reaches the commission.

Impact analysis
The applicant's multimodal impact fees could more than cover a flashing beacon and crosswalk relocation on Wellbourne.
Daycare families, churchgoers, and everyone who walks or drives on Wellbourne would get safer crossings and calmer traffic.
Without action, children and seniors crossing Wellbourne face ongoing safety risks from parked cars and through traffic.

City Commission - Oct 28, 2026
Beth Weingraff asked the city to use some of the Z Properties project's $200,000+ in mobility fees for a raised brick crosswalk, better signage and lighting near the Welburn Nursery. Staff cautioned mobility fees may not legally cover the crosswalk, but promised cost figures and grant research before the second reading.
