Council Meeting At 6:00 PM Tonight


Shall we discuss the Jersey Road Annexation?

The last we touched on this, several people were upset about a Round-A-Bout being put it on a Truck Route.

My personal opinion is that the Westwood Industrial Park will create a tremendous amount of traffic through this route for any Truckers heading to and from Delaware, purposely missing/avoiding the Weight Stations on Rt. 13.

The mere fact the County decided they had not provided enough information on this project and walked away from it clearly shows the City of Salisbury should NOT be moving forward with this Annexation as it stands. Not until the County is satisfied they have met all their wants and needs. The time being wasted on this IMO is completely unprofessional and slaps the County in the face.

A Traffic Study needs to be conducted well before this is considered for annexation.

History repeats itself -- no pre-annexation traffic study was needed for the Hearne Farm or for that property on the Route 13 Bypass that they annexed in October, which will devastate Hobbs Road. Why go outside the box when it's so great inside?

Trucks traveling Naylor Mill Road won't be ducking the scales, its the trucks going west on Jersey Road that are usually ducking the scales. Its just plain stupid to make someone go around a circle when they are going straight ahead. Like everything else the witch and her flying monkeys do...go around their ass to get to their elbow.
