Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Hamilton public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Sidewalk repair assessment program concerns
If your street was paved in the Millville, Eaton/Highland Park or annual concrete programs, you'll get a bill in May for your share of curb, sidewalk and apron work — but you can pay over five years through your property taxes.
Intersection safety at Main and Brookwood
A new homeowner who is blind told council she can't safely cross Main and Brookwood — the signal timing and right-on-red traffic make it impossible to navigate by sound. Council connected her with staff and the Safe Streets program.
North Hamilton Crossing Phase Two
Council Member Pohlman reported the county TID will break ground this fall on Phase 1 of the North Hamilton Crossing — dual roundabouts at Washington and West Sexton — with Phase 2 toward Ray Avenue by 2027.
Snow and ice removal performance
Public works crews were honored for clearing 13-16 inches of snow across 550 lane miles — the biggest storm since the late 1990s. Crews worked 24/7 for nearly a week while also fighting daily water main breaks.
