roundabouts are like slingshots for traffic, they are confusing at times for some drivers and I feel they speed up traffic in the areas they are put in. The village does not need traffic to be hurried thru, but they need it to slow down and enjoy the village.

spending money just to spend money is just a waste. Can't you find a better use for these funds? If not, then give it back with a note of thanks. Just because round-abouts appear to be the road fashion of the 21st century does not make it the right thing to do.

I use this intersection often and see no need for this. The intersection is too small for it and businesses will lose parking spots. This won't benefit the village in any way.

They have worked so hard to create a quaint village. Cute shops, coffee shops and restaurants and now they want to add a roundabout ? How about utilizing funds to bring families into the village and continue to create an aesthetically appealing village!!!

The towns heritage is about to be destroyed and some folks don't care. Mist folks on the town board are folks that lived somewhere else and moved in and are changing the town to fit them. The area is to small for a roundabout. If the town board wants to look like Hamburg maybe you should move there.

There is not enough room to do this. The lights work just fine you have very few accidents. You have business that will loose parking and it's ridiculous. Buses will not be able to get around it and also trucks who even came up with this idea? If you want to waste money why not widen central? It's technically a 2 lane street but people continue to use it as 4 lane. Money was wasted with putting in the brick work from Pleasnt to Broadway and now you're pulling that up??? And to make matters worse you want to put a second one in at Aurora and Pleasant ??? You can't get through this whole area at rush hours and now driving in circles will make it worse. Talk about accidents waiting to happen.

A round about will be dangerous here. Too many pedestrians and no safe place to cross with a round about... kids walking to/from school, elderly walking to Rite Aid, many people just walking in to the main retail area of the Village. Terrible idea, no issues with traffic here, leave it alone!

Waste of tax payer money. Spend the money on more important things.

Please do not put the round about in, it is not good for our village. Also, think about the 4th of July parade, not a wise choice.

These roundabouts are not necessary. They will hinder traffic because no one knows how to use them. The proposed placement of them is ridiculous.
