Boardman Township Trustees have approved an ‘Active Transportation Plan’ and adopted a ‘Market St. Multi-Modal Feasibility Study,’ as proposed by the township Zoning/Development Office.
      Zoning/Development Director Krista Beniston said the Eastgate Regional Council of Government will provide funding for the transportation plan that “seeks to improve the safety, accessibility and health of the community by creating a connected bicycle and pedestrian walk.”
      The Market St. study was funded through a grant received from the Western Reserve Health Foundation, Beniston said.
      “The study evaluated the feasibility of multi-modal options along Market St., between Midlothian Blvd. and Meadowbrook Ave.,” she said.
      Trustees also have approved a nuisance abatement resolution for property/maintenance issues at 3917 Arden Blvd.
      In another matter, a bid of $144,000 by R.T. Vernal, has been accepted to upgrade drainage on West Huntington Dr. That project will be funded through an Ohio Public Works grant and license plate tax monies, Road Department Supt. Marilyn Kenner said. Work on the project should be completed by mid-November. The West Huntington Dr. area was heavily-impacted by late May rainstorms.
