Milton Town Council at its Jan. 4 meeting unanimously rejected a plan brought by the Streets, Sidewalks and Parks Committee to designate a series of streets on the north side of town into one-way streets.
Vice Chairman P.D. Camenisch said the committee sought an up-or-down vote to either approve the proposal or put it to bed. A plan for one-way streets in the Chestnut Street corridor has been talked about on and off for more than a year. The last time it came before the council, it was tabled with the council electing to take no action. Camenisch said Public Works Director Greg Wingo asked to put it back on the agenda with the idea to have the council look at it one more time “to put it to bed.”
