Charlestown Beach Road Safety
The topic of biking and walking safety along Charlestown Beach Road has long been a topic of concern, with no easy answers and virtually no progress in years beyond making the driving lanes narrower. This special meeting has been scheduled on Monday to begin a new attempt to improve the situation along that road. Citizen participation, suggestions, and comments will be an essential part of this work. The meeting material can be read here. Please consider attending, in the Council Chambers starting at 6 pm on Monday, October 16.
Ninigret Park Planning
Planning for Ninigret Park always stimulates a diversity of opinions. There was a long discussion about Ninigret Park in the January 23 Town Council meeting (report here). At the July 10 Council meeting (report here), a bid was awarded to a planning firm to create the updated master plan.
The Ninigret Park Master Plan Update Subcommittee, including the contractor, is meeting on Tuesday, October 17, starting at 5 pm to discuss the master plan update. The agenda for the meeting can be read here. The advertising for the meeting can be read here.
We encourage people to attend the meeting and express their opinions on what they would like to see in the park, including maintaining and improving on things that already exist (soccer fields, softball fields, etc).
