Request to reopen Park Street alley access refused

MEEKER — At the request of some citizens, the board of trustees opened a public discussion concerning the closure of the alley exit on Park Avenue between Sixth and Seventh streets behind the Post Office.
Business owners, property owners and residents presented concerns about traffic congestion, safety hazards, snow removal, truck traffic, reduction of property value, customer and employee parking and a lack of notification prior to the closure of the access dominated citizen complaints.
