It was great to hear that something is finally getting done about Northpoint Boulevard.

Now, Mr. Ledford, can we please do something about getting Franks Road fixed?

Yes, Franks Road can be next. Since day one on the job, I have focused on roads in District 4 that need immediate attention. I am happy to report that working together with Mayor Berke's office and Mr. Blythe Bailey (CDOT), Franks Road is officially on the preliminary list.

Roads in District 4 are very heavily used due to economic attractions, such as shopping outlets, restaurants, and medical facilities. It is also the fastest growing district in the entire city.

We still have much work to do in addressing these repairs on our roads. It is exciting seeing interest in such an important economic generator.
