Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Town of Bethlehem public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Glenmont Traffic Safety
Multiple speakers reported children hit by cars while biking in Glenmont, dangerous truck traffic on Route 144 and Glenmont Hill Road, and questionable traffic study data for Feuerbush Road — demanding studies before the rezoning hearing.
Traffic Safety and Corridor Infrastructure
A Glenmont resident again asked when kids will get a safe sidewalk on Feura Bush Road to reach the park; the Elsmere-to-Murray segment doesn't get them there.
Feura Bush Road Traffic Assessment
Residents repeatedly flagged worsening traffic on Feura Bush Road and criticized reliance on 2017/2020 traffic counts. The board agreed the counts need updating and will consider adding intersections like Spindler/Corrit and Bain to the study scope.
