Walk-a-Long will explore Baldwin's pedestrian areas

The LSU AgCenter Healthy St. Mary Coalition and town of Baldwin are hosting a community walk-a-long 9:30-11:30 a.m. Sept. 22
The group invites residents to be a part of improving walking conditions in Baldwin.
 The walk will start at Baldwin Town Hall. Participants will evaluate whether the current walking conditions are safe, inviting and Americans With Disabilities Act-accessible. 
In August, the Baldwin Town Council passed a resolution to accept a Complete Streets Policy proposed by Jessica Randazzo, LSU AgCenter nutrition agent.  Feedback from the community will strengthen this policy and support future applications for funding to sustainable pedestrian improvements.   
“Community input is important for long-lasting change, so we are inviting all community members in the hopes of getting well-rounded feedback,” Randazzo said.
