Recap of April 2 Ada Council Meeting

Pebble Court resident brings paving concerns to council

By Paula Pyzik Scott

The April 2 meeting of the Ada Council was a brief session with no committee reports and only one piece of legislation. 

OPEN FLOOR
A Pebble Court resident addressed the Mayor and Council during the Open Floor segment to express her concern about the condition of that street, which is paved to about its midpoint.

Pebble Court is located north of E. Lincoln Ave. between Simon Ct. and Parkview Village. It is nominally not a through street but Village trucks and others use it, according the the resident. She observed that it is not well maintained when snow covered and icy, and is a dust bowl in the summer. “This has been going on 15 years,” she commented.

Village administrator Jamie Hall noted that at the prior council meeting he presented two price options to council for 4” and 5” paving but that the cost of about $25K would need to be found in this summer’s paving project budget or funds leftover from the Montford project, dependent on bids and actual costs.
