In a recent government meeting, concerns were raised about speeding in residential areas, particularly during evening hours. Residents reported instances of vehicles traveling at speeds of 60 to 70 miles per hour between 7 PM and 9 PM over the past three nights. A council member suggested that a meeting with the city administrator could help address these safety issues, emphasizing the need for community protection, especially for children.
The discussion also touched on infrastructure improvements, including the installation of a new water line in the area, which was noted as a positive development amidst the ongoing concerns about neighborhood safety.
As the meeting progressed, the council moved on to other agenda items, including a public hearing regarding a zone change initiated by the City of Coeur d'Alene, specifically affecting the North Idaho College campus area. This item was presented by a council member, indicating a focus on urban development and planning in the region.
The meeting concluded with a call for public comments, although no additional names were added to the list for discussion. The council expressed gratitude for the input received and committed to addressing the highlighted issues in future sessions.
