A Resolution to Approve the Closure of Streets in Downtown Foley for Uptown Halloween on Oct. 27, 2022
Summary
The marketing department requests that council approve road closings for the annual Hometown Halloween celebration on Thursday, Oct. 27, 2022. The following roads would be closed from 5:15 P.M. until 8:30 P.M.:
West Laurel Ave. (U.S. 98) from Hwy 59 to Alston Ave.; West Orange Ave. from Hwy. 59 to Alston Street; And Alston Street, from U.S. 98 to Orange Ave.

Verbena, where it will turn right and continue one block to S. Pine Street. There it will turn right and proceed north on S. Pine Street for two blocks, where it will turn right on W. Orange Ave. From here, it will travel east to return to the start position on S. Alston Street.
