No Sound Basis for Closing South Third Street
Citizens of Silsbee oppose closing South Third Street citing 2025 cars per day, risk to traffic on Dardin Drive, and safety concerns near Silsbee Junior High and four churches. They critique a $11,900 estimate for culverts and road work as undersized and note missing costs for widening Dardin Drive and the Third Street bridge.
