You may remember that there was some controversy over putting a gate up between the Coves of Charter Oak and Vinton Highlands subdivisions. The proposed gate would actually block a public street. The Traffic Commission will be holding a public hearing tonight regarding that issue at Mark Bills Middle School. Here’s the address and agenda:
CITY OF PEORIA – TRAFFIC COMMISSION

So what’s the big deal? The City of Peoria has already done essentially the same thing on public streets around Main Street.
mdd: There are locked gates with keys on the public streets around Main Street or are those streets some sort of cul-de-sacs?
