Citizens for a Responsible Town Hall in Zionsville

I am not convinced we need a new Town Hall. Renovations to the existing building make more sense. Sell the lots behind the Town Hall.

PLEASE slow down the Town Hall decision ! We need to address other, more pressing, safety issues first.

$10,000,000.00. Really?!

I am not certain about the location of the round-about mentioned in the petition, but I am in favor of any round-about where it helps traffic. They reduce accidents and keep traffic moving safely.

Hey, maybe we could sell naming rights to the new Town Hall and slather it with advertisements as a way to pay for it!

Much thought, discussion, planning and action is critically needed in an accelerated time frame.

If the foundation crumbles, the city will fall! Greed should never be placed above "we the people!"

The new town hall seems beyond our needs. There has not be a timely and orderly presentation of cost and benefit. If this is the right decision, it will be obvious to most of the citizens. Please give US THE OPPORTUNITY to see what we will be paying for for a LONG time.

The roads and safety should take priority over a new town hall, Do we need a $ 10,000.00 building?

Many of the roads in Zionsville are former gravel roads that were chipped and sealed, and then asphalted without ever having engineered widths drainage, This causes dangerous road conditions throughout the area especially when busses are on the roadways. I would urge the Mayor and town officials to spend some time driving all our roadways. Lets get our existing problems fixed before spending millions on a fancy town hall.

Lamenting the loss of "the village of Zionsville"!

Agree! Oak Street is relatively dangerous to drive. How many accidents need to happen at S800E &Oak before they fix it? How many people need to die? It's disgusting that Zionsville would build a 10 million dollar town hall before taking care of real problems that need addressing.

Please consider changing the intersection of Oak and Kissel. If nothing else, please consider personally driving over and watching the traffic at this Intersection during rush hour. The speed limit is too high for the amount of cars that use it. Thank you!

Agree!

I would argue that not just Oak St requires some attention - there are many roads in Zionsville that are inadequate to face the growing demands of our town. We are no longer the sleepy village that people like to promote. I drove on Zionsville Rd the other day and was shocked at the increase in large semi traffic, which in retrospect is completely understandable given the FedEx facility but has really changed the character of that drive - no wonder I usually avoid it. Please start addressing these needs!

Saving lives must be the first job of the town council not a building !!

These are streets that I drive frequently. I don't want to be another statistic.

This is a problem that both Zionsville and Whitestown share. Not only should Zionsville be looking to improve access to the town and make Oak Street safer but it should also be looking to Whitestown to collaborate in this effort.

Roads need to take priority over a building that will be mostly an ego thing. Zionsville Road is a real problem with the truck traffic. The connector to 96th Street and dangerous intersections need to be the priority.

I don't believe a new building to house politicians from 9-5 should take top priority over public safety and saving lives. Since the road improvements are estimated at less then a million dollars, seems like we could scale back the monstrosity of an eyesore Town Hall that's being planned and first make the needed improvements to 334/Kissel. I'm sorry if 9 million isn't enough for the new Town Hall, but I really hope Zionsville lawmakers aren't willing to sacrifice public safety for a pretty new building.
