Why it matters
Better road design means safer streets for your family, easier commutes, and stronger neighborhood connections. Well-designed roads help emergency vehicles respond faster, support local businesses, and can increase property values in your area.
If this passes
The county can start working with professional firms to design better roads, bike lanes, and sidewalks that make your neighborhood safer and more connected.
If this does not pass
Current road problems like dangerous intersections, poor bike access, and flooding issues would take longer to fix without professional design help.
