Roads and road safety issues in the village have consistently been high on the list of safety concerns in the village. At every annual meeting of the homeowners association for at least the past five years, the majority of public comments and questions for the board have dealt with traffic issue on village street and roads.

In March, 2015, the FHA Board's first open meeting of the year program dealt with these issues and concerns in considerable detail.

The Health, Safety, & Security Committee has researched the key issues and has published an eleven page report, which every resident should read. To access the report, click on the cover photo to open the PDF file.

After reading the report, return to the blog to post comments, questions, and suggestions, and to comment on those that have been added by others.

We hope this will be a good way to engage the community in an on-going discussion across the many months in its search for perspective and more effective solutions.

FHA Heath, Safety & Security Mission

As stated in the Fearrington Homeowners Association (FHA) Articles of Incorporation, one of the important purposes of the FHA is to "provide for the health, safety and welfare" of the residents of Fearrington Village. As part of this important mission, and to comply with the Articles, the FHA works hard to develop and sustain policies, programs, and services that will help to keep village residents healthy and safe.

The FHA HSS Director oversees emergency preparedness, village road safety, and Community Watch information, sometimes working with ad hoc advisory committees.
At times in the past several years, over 35 residents have served in such advisory roles. Their work and support have been invaluable and very much appreciated.

In addition to its communication with Fearrington residents, the FHA HSS Director maintains collaborative relationships with the Chatham County Emergency Management Department and 911, Emergency Medical Services (FirstHealth/EMS), the Chatham County North Chatham Fire Department, the Chatham County Sheriff's Department, and traffic engineers at the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT, which is responsible for 54 state secondary roads in the village).
