Topics getting the most attention in De Pere, WI public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Four-way stop request at Suburban and Grant
Residents asked for an all-way stop near the route to West De Pere High School, but a traffic study didn't support it and staff said no. A traffic circle may be considered when the county rebuilds Grant Street years from now.
Transportation utility legal status
Alderperson Hansen asked for an update on the transportation utility idea that was tabled years ago amid court cases — a potential new way to fund street maintenance.
Four-way stop request denied at Charles and Michigan
A resident request for a four-way stop didn't come close to traffic warrants — 561 and 324 vehicles per day versus thresholds measured in vehicles per hour. No change to the intersection.
Ninth Street strip mall driveway traffic concerns
A resident worries the new strip mall's connecting driveway to Festival Foods will create turning conflicts near the post office, Shell station and Walgreens. Staff will study it once the development is functioning.
Generations Boulevard street renaming
Southbridge, Red Maple and Rockland Roads on the Southern Bridge Bypass will be renamed Generations Boulevard.
