5 issues in roads with low priority
Walnut Street and Michigan Street parking changes
A new 15-minute zone near the University of Evansville and a no-parking rule near Amcor's new cul-de-sac will change street parking in those areas.
Lynch Road right-of-way dedication
A property owner on Lynch Road near the old drive-in theater formally dedicated 30 feet of right-of-way as the land is subdivided, removing ambiguity about whether the right-of-way exists.
North Main electrical outlet repair
About 20 of roughly 50 electrical outlets along North Main are broken, and the city has put the repair work out to bid so they work for the November 22 parade. Chronic vandalism and age have plagued these outlets since the streetscape was built in 2015-16.
Canal Street parking dispute resolution
Neighbors have been fighting over parking on narrow Canal Street; the city will designate shoulder parking and add no-parking zones and signs.
Temporary speed limit reduction on Clover Drive
A temporary speed limit reduction was proposed for Clover Drive between Elmridge Drive and Bergdolt Road, likely for safety reasons in that neighborhood corridor.
