The question on your ballot

It is proposed to add a Village Charter section requiring pedestrian, bicycling, and golf cart facilities in roadway improvement projects, unless waived by a vote of at least 4 Councilmembers and written findings that such facilities are infeasible or disproportionate to overall project costs. The amendment also creates a dedicated Transportation Fund, using existing transportation revenues, for mobility and safety improvements like sidewalks, bike paths, and traffic calming. Shall the above-described amendment be adopted?
