Mayor Drnek Clarifies Voting Access to Foothills Polling Location
Editor's note: City of Oneonta Mayor Mark Drnek released directions on Tuesday, October 29 for those seeking to vote at the Foothills Performing Arts and Civic Center, given concerns regarding ongoing construction in the immediate vicinity.
ONEONTA—With asphalt plants closing in mid-November, the contractor is in the last stages of construction and paving on Market Street, City of Oneonta Mayor Mark Drnek announced on Tuesday, October 29. However, to ensure uninterrupted access to early voting, the city has restricted roadwork to several blocks east of the Foothills Performing Arts and Civic Center.
“There is no construction activity that will prevent vehicle and pedestrian access to the polling site at Foothills,” Drnek said in a media release.
The following directions for voters were provided:
- For people who are entering the city from the east via Lettis Highway or Route 7/Main Street, they should drive east along Main Street until they reach the Chestnut Street intersection, where they should turn left down Chestnut Street Extension to Market Street, where they will see Foothills directly in front of them.
