Patrick Fisher, Staff Writer

At its Tuesday meeting, the New Prague City Council unanimously approved the 2007 street reconstruction project, minus sidewalks, along Lexington Avenue N.

There were 18 people at the public hearing on the street work, which includes Lexington Avenue from Second Street NE to Scott County State Aid Highway CSAH 37 (Seventh Street NE) and two cul-de-sacs, Liberty Lane and Gooseberry Lane. Most residents from those areas voiced opposition to the proposed sidewalks.
