Clays Mill Road Traffic and Pedestrian Safety Improvements

In 2023, the Picadome Neighborhood Association requested a safety audit of Clays Mill Road and surrounding areas. This was prompted by concerns about traffic and pedestrian safety due to a zone change request. In response, a group of engineers from Lexington’s Traffic Engineering Division walked the neighborhood to identify safety concerns and potential interventions.  An update on proposed safety improvements will be provided by Our Councilmember, Dave Sevigny, and a representative from Traffic Engineering at our upcoming neighborhood ice cream social and movie night – Friday, June 7th, at 7:00 PM in the Vista Street Greenspace.

75 Trees for 75 Years

Sponsored by the Picadome Neighborhood Association

 

  • Please help us at 9:00 AM on Saturday, March 21st, Lafayette High School’s Beeler Auditorium to help us set trees in already drilled holes.
  • Please bring a shovel.
  • Tree holes will be pre-drilled and the trees will be set via machinery.
  • All that will be required of volunteers is to fill the holes with dirt, and place mulch around the tree.
  • March 22 will be used to finish the planting (if necessary).  
  • Trees will be planted on the grounds near the school and also in the empty green space located on Vista Street.
  • RSVP to Picadome Neighborhood if you can help. We need to know how many volunteers we can expect so we can plan accordingly. Please join us!

 

The Picadome Neighborhood Association extends gratitude to those who have donated, allowing 75 Trees for 75 Years to be a success!

Learn more about our neighborhood streams!

May 18, 2014 at 2 pm – enter the flood plain off Bob O Link Drive at Jacana.

Join our stream restoration team and Friends of Wolf Run as we will walk along the creek to look at what’s surviving from prior year’s stream buffer restoration and what may need to be replaced.  We will do some invasive weed control (Honeysuckle sprouts, Tree of Heaven regrowth, multi-flora rose control).  Bring your gloves, pruners, saws, etc. to tackle the removal.

Grant discussion will take place after the stream walk.

Lafayette Loves Its Neighbors!
