Ford Road Crossing Marking Paul requested approval for adding markings across Ford Road at Starkey Road for pedestrian safety. The committee gave a recommendation that the Town address the safety of pedestrians from the Thornhill area (communities west of Ford Road) into the downtown area. Paul will follow up with Town officials to address this. Committee Membership Evan noted that there are two positions still unfilled on our committee.
