If power is lost again, these time frames will be adjusted.

On Tuesday, Greenville City Manager Summer Spurlock outlined four possible scenarios for how the $50 million might be distributed between collector roads and residential roads. With the conditions of Greenvilleâs roads being a common complaint among residents, each scenario included more attention to residential roads and less to collector roads, when compared to the previous scenario.
