The city engineers asked the board to waive the sidewalk requirement along the east side of Old Boonville Highway for the Gerhardt major subdivision. The waiver would mean no new sidewalks are built on that stretch as part of the development.

Area Plan Commission - Jan 8, 2026

Related development
The Nest Subdivision
The complex will be built without internal sidewalks connecting to Red Bank, where none exist; the county would bear sidewalk costs in any future road project.
Daylight Estates
Would determine whether sidewalks are required in the subdivision.
Gerhardt Major Subdivision
No sidewalks will be built along this stretch, which fits the rural character of the area but leaves pedestrian infrastructure absent.
