Councilman Piagentini pressed staff on 18-foot-wide roads carrying thousands of new subdivision homes — a safety hazard for fire trucks and oncoming traffic. The $250,000 study funding was reallocated after no consultants bid, and a fix is now folded into the two-year Land Development Code rewrite.
