To accommodate a request from a homeowners association, the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners has approved spending $15,153 to construct 500 feet of sidewalk along Keeter Road.
The Holly Mill Subdivision Homeowners Association asked the county to install the 5-foot-wide sidewalk with sod utility strip to provide pedestrian access from the back of the subdivision to an existing sidewalk on Keeter; that walk goes to the Canton city limits, staff said in a report to commissioners.
To ensure an internal connection, the homeowners association already has installed about 100 feet of sidewalk between the Kensington Park Drive cul-de-sac and Keeter, staff said.
Commissioners approved a supplemental agreement to include the addition of the Keeter project to an intersection improvement project at Bells Ferry and Ridge roads. Bartow Paving Co. Inc., the county’s contractor on that job, submitted the lowest of three bids for the Keeter sidewalk work.
