Verify Bear Lane road project is design only
Why now: Director of Engineering Services Jeff Edmonds's May 18, 2026 quarterly update listed Bear Lane (SPID to Joe Mireur Rd.) with the explicit qualifier "(Design Only)," unlike Huntwick Avenue, McCampbell, William Drive, and Industrial Park Roadway Improvements.
What to do: The Bear Lane segment from SPID to Joe Mireur Road was reported to the Type B board as design only, so no construction schedule is on the record — confirm that status with Engineering Services before you tie site access, phasing, or frontage improvements at that segment to a paving completion date. If you assume construction is funded, your access plan may sit unbuilt through the next reporting cycles.

Request slides behind Type B quarterly project update
Why now: The Engineering Services Type B Quarterly Project Report was filed with the City Secretary on April 20, 2026 and presented on May 18, 2026, but Item 7 shows a 0-0 result with the note "Presentation only; no motion or vote taken" and no figures in the minutes.
What to do: Ask the City Secretary for Jeff Edmonds's presentation materials and the report filed April 20, and for the prior quarter's version of the same report — the minutes name eight projects but record no cost, schedule, or percent-complete figures, so slippage between quarters is invisible in the public record. Without the underlying deck you cannot tell which of the eight are behind, and the next quarterly update will overwrite the comparison.

Find out if your street project funds construction
Why now: Jeff Edmonds's May 18, 2026 quarterly update to the Type B board listed these street projects together, with only Bear Lane (SPID to Joe Mireur Rd.) marked "(Design Only)."
What to do: If you live along Huntwick Avenue, McCampbell between Agnes and Leopard, William Drive between Rodd Field and Lexington, or Bear Lane, ask Engineering Services which stage your street is in — Bear Lane was reported as design only, meaning surveying and plan work rather than paving and lane closures. Knowing the stage tells you whether to expect construction traffic this year or a design phase with no visible work.
Act before: After the next quarterly Engineering Services project report is presented
