City Clerk Ron Clarke gave a brief update on current construction for the sidewalk, stating that the signal lights will be completed in approximately four weeks, depending upon the weather. He then brought up Phase 5 of the sidewalk project, telling the board they had two engineering firms to pick between: Anderson or Cochran.

MoBikeFed comment: The sidewalk project in Laurie is much needed, but has generated some local controversy. Kudos to citizens and leaders in Laurie who have pushed the project forward.
