The proposal began as a narrow infrastructure fix. It has since become a larger debate about how the city should grow, who benefits from new investment, and what residents need from public space.
Officials say the first phase can begin this year. Community groups support the broad goals but want clearer timelines, stronger accessibility commitments, and regular public reporting.
What changes first
The initial work will focus on the busiest corridors, where aging infrastructure and rising demand have created daily bottlenecks.
"People will judge the plan by what changes on their street, not by the presentation," one local organizer said.
What residents should watch
- The final construction schedule and neighborhood sequencing.
- Funding decisions at the next council meeting.
- Public updates on delays, costs, and accessibility.
The plan is ambitious. Its success will depend on whether officials can turn broad promises into visible, reliable improvements.
