2025 Street Bond Ballot Initiative Overview

The 2025 Street Bond Ballot Initiative is a strategic plan to invest in the critical infrastructure of our community’s streets and transportation network. This initiative aims to fund a comprehensive series of projects focused on repairing, upgrading, and expanding our streets, drainage and related infrastructure to improve safety, mobility, and connectivity for all residents.

Key components of the initiative include:

• Resurfacing and reconstructing damaged or aging roads to extend their lifespan and improve driving conditions.
• Enhancing pedestrian safety through sidewalk repairs, crosswalk improvements, and ADA accessibility upgrades.
  • This part of the initiative will be performed through other grant options such as Arkansas Department of Transportation TAP (Transportation Alternative Program) Grant applications.
• Upgrading traffic signals, signage, and lighting to improve traffic flow and safety.
  • This part of the initiative will be performed through other grant options such as Arkansas Department of Transportation 80/20 Traffic Signals Grant Program
• Investing in neighborhood street improvements to support local economic development and community connectivity.
• Addressing infrastructure needs in underserved and low- to moderate-income areas to promote equitable access.

This initiative is designed to modernize our transportation infrastructure, reduce congestion, and foster a safer, more accessible environment for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers alike. The bond funds will be allocated transparently and responsibly, ensuring that every dollar contributes to building a stronger, more connected community for generations to come.
