Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Troy public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Sidewalk safety on Livernois
A lifelong bicyclist said Livernois has narrow, dangerous sidewalks while new apartment developments across the street got wide ones.
Road construction quality on Wattles and Big Beaver
The DDA's Big Beaver enhancements move forward with two new traffic signal agreements approved with Oakland County at Talbot Avenue and near Charter Drive.
Road funding and I-75 sound walls
Michigan's new road funding formula could bring $5.5 million more than expected, letting Troy fund all road work from Act 51 dollars instead of dipping into capital reserves. Council is cautiously optimistic — the state hasn't finalized allocations.
Bicycle route improvements
A cyclist asked if Troy has plans for dedicated bike paths like neighboring cities. Mayor Baker said bike lanes have been discussed for years under the master plan but there are no dedicated bike lane projects now; he suggested talking with staff.
