Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously approved a plan to survey all 500 miles of city sidewalks to catalog every street sign, streetlight, and traffic pole. This builds on the city's nearly completed installation of 1,330 new street sweeping signs in neighborhoods that previously lacked them. The comprehensive inventory will help staff identify missing or faded signs and better plan maintenance across the city. The council also directed staff to explore creating a text alert system to remind residents about street sweeping schedules.
