City Council Votes to Preserve Downtown Street Closure

City Council voted 6 to 1 to continue as if Main Street will be permanently closed to cars.

An Environmental Impact Report will be done in January, where they'll figure out next steps.

Several council members basically said bring it on to the lawsuit; agree that they love the pedestrian friendly downtown and have never seen such community outreach and individual stories and concerns voiced through email.

To my understanding, If the lawsuit has a judgement that they need to reopen the street, they will put it to a vote with property owners in the area. But TBD....

But thanks to everyone who showed up, spoke, and wrote emails! 💕 We still have downtown for the present.
