Summary
The county wants to replace temporary Jersey barriers around Ashley Pond with permanent crash-rated protection before festivals draw big crowds. Three design concepts — seat bollards, rustic planters, and natural boulders — are being voted on by the public, and all cost roughly $100,000. The preservation board recommended the natural boulder option as the most sympathetic to the historic landscape.
