Roads
Since I became Chairman of Roads, we have taken a more proactive approach.
I met with the Township Supervisor, Don Figiel, several times and the Hillsdale County Road Commission twice and presented our concerns about the condition of our roads. I stated at the meetings that we only had 11 miles of roads and not all were in need of repair, but there were a few miles in need of immediate attention. I said that Limerick Lane, Blarney Circle and Killybegs were in dire need of resurfacing.
Because of our persistent and ongoing effort, a contract has been signed by the Township to pave Limerick from Blarney Circle all the way to the cul-de-sac. This will be a resurfacing and not a chip-n-seal. Blarney Circle and Killybegs are also on our list but there wasn't enough money in this year's Township Budget to contract those roads. Hopefully, they will be done next year.
Another concern I am looking into is the speed limit on Northmoor. At present it is 45 mph. Residents in that area said they would like to see it lowered to 35. I believe that this is a reasonable request and that no residential area should be posted higher than 35 mph. Since the speed limit was first posted, the population of the lake has almost tripled. We will continue to pursue this matter until we get some positive results.
As always if you have any concerns about the roads you can call me at 688-9767 or e-mail me at tony.helen.harsch@comcast.net
