Suggested locations include: NE direction between Dunkin' Donuts and Croton Mini Deli/Great Wall; NE/SW direction near Dobbs Park; SW direction near Maple Commons (between Wells and Project Mover). The committee will compare these to a previously compiled map by Riley before forwarding to the Village Manager.

Key target locations include Senasqua, somewhere on North Riverside (with a prime spot identified at the bottom of the footbridge ramp on the west side), and a possibility of Croton Point Park. The service will shut down for the winter pending weather in December and return in April 2026.
