The proposed change would update pavement and parking signs in public spaces across Longmeadow to use a symbol intended to better reflect the dignity and independence of people with disabilities. The committee has not approved a townwide implementation plan or funding source; it will first coordinate with town officials and assess the work required. The committee also approved its February 26 minutes by a 7-0 vote and will not hold a regular meeting in May.
