Project DeRenne Meeting, July 23

Your input is needed

The City of Savannah is requesting a special meeting of the Fairway Oaks Neighborhood Association to discuss the bicycling facility and improved sidewalk connectivity along the corridor, in conjunction with Project DeRenne.

In 2012 a concept for Bicycle and pedestrian accommodation utilizing the existing median and DeRenne Drive was developed for consideration by the neighborhood. This concept involved the removal of red tips and the installation of a sidewalk abutting DeRenne Avenue, with a serpentine wall, planting on both side of the wall, and DeRenne Drive for bicyclist.

On April 23rd of this year, at the Prject DeRenne Public Information Open House, a new proposed concept was presented for public comment. This alternative would maintain the existing red tips and install a sidealk in the existing right-of-way abutting those properties along DeRenne Drive.

Several of the comments received by the project team referenced the 2010 concept, request that members of Project DeRenne meet with Fairway Oaks to discuss futher, and others were in support of the alternative.

Please plan to attend the meeting.

Members of the Project DeRenne will be available to discuss the above in greater detail. This meeting will allow for greater discussion and consensus in moving forward.

Thank you,
