The
Board of Mayor and Aldermen, BOMA, and City Government officials are entering
into a study of a proposed river walk for Franklin again.
The
map below shows two proposed river walkways which will affect us. One is on the Ewingville side of the river,
shown in red and the other is across Lewisburg Pike on the Carton side shown in
yellow.
BOMA
will pay an engineer to look into all options in the city for this river
walk.
A
BOMA work session will be on May 12, 2015 at 5:00 PM in City Hall. Our alderman, Ann Petersen, has said that
generally there is a time for residents to speak to the proposal and or stand
to be recognized. Ewingville neighbors
are encouraged to attend this session on May 12, 2015 at 5:00 PM.
Ewingville
residents along the river side are not likely to be in favor of a path so close
to homes. Other residents are not likely
willing to permit such easy access to homes in the entire neighborhood.
This
webmaster has on file printed information back to December of 2002 of meetings
with the city and the neightborhood to state opposition to a walkway along the
Harpeth going through the Ewingville neighborhood.
Please remember
to attend the BOMA work session
on May 12, 2015 at 5:00 PM
where the proposal for the walkway
through Franklin will be discussed.
