Anyone with survey flags along the streets of Morrison from Piper to Higbee, Curtis from Clarksville Rd to Walnut, Walnut from Curtis to Lowry, and Lowry from Walnut to Lowry Park, can remove said flags. The designs for new sidewalks are being submitted to IDOT for approval. Once approved, we can put the project out for bid, and get this project completed in the summer of 2025. This is a $250,000 project funded by a Safeway to Schools Grant awarded to the City of Pittsfield.
