Comments for “Connecting Oakhurst Online Map”

Hello, our community needs to make Oakhurst a more attractive town for visitors and locals. With the town growing it’s important to make it look nice and have locals creat more jobs. Tourism is an important part of the community and there isn’t much we offer for them. Most of the shops are 2nd hand thrift stores. Others are closed. There is no uniformity in the buildings. I have traveled to many small towns and they always have something attractive. If I am honest, Oakhurst looks like a cheap town and I love the area so much that I would love that option to change. I’d help if there are community events to help the town look appealing.

425B is the alternate route for HWY 41. It should be surveyed and a speed limit of less than 55mph posted. There was a 25moh sign at the bottom, but when the County was requested to post a limit for the 1 lane top session the result was the 25moh was removed! Unposted roads in CA are 55mph! Knowledge of this ridiculously handled situation was requiring a special senior speed zone by the mobile home park!

There needs to be a sidewalk on both sides of the street that connects River Parkway all the way through Indian Springs down to School Road. Currently the sidewalks stop at the top of the hill where the Catholic Church is. The bend in the road there is very dangerous for pedestrians walking and kids walking to and from OCI as well as the high school. There also needs to be a crosswalk light or 4 way stop installed at the intersection of Indian Springs/Donna Lane for the kids walking from OCI. Traffic never stops for the kids to safely cross.

What is the source of the "Oakhurst Community Boundary"? Why/how was it determined that Cedar Valley and beyond is included in the Community, but Goldside and vicinity is not? Doesn't make sense.

Consider a pedestrian overpass bridge for public / tourists to safely cross back and forth Hwy 41. Connect businesses on both sides of highway for foot/bicycle traffic.

Purchase the old Rite Aid property and convert it to an indoor climbing gym. Or “Welcome Center” for Chamber of Commerce or both! This location has the parking capacity and prime location. Could even utilize drive thru information window that used to be pharmacy.

It would be great if transportation could service 632. Or a sidewalk.

This empty lot- would be nice if it could provide parking for the park and a trail leading to the park- would require another bridge but it would make the park less secluded.

The entire corridor of School Road needs a sidewalk for children to safely walk to the schools along School Road. Currently, there is a sidewalk that starts at Road 426/School Road and ends on the backside of Oakhurst Elementary School. A sidewalk needs to be built for children to walk all the way down to Yosemite High School. School Road is busy and dangerous, with parents and teenagers unwilling to adhere to speed limit.
