\"We have gone multiple times to Claggett, have asked for an appointment to see the vice principal or the principal just with for them to say they will get back to you, we have gotten no callback,\" Navarro told the committee. She said parents and neighborhood residents have provided flyers and called the school and that parking for middle-school dismissal has increasingly spilled into a nearby park; the city has responded by ticketing and towing vehicles in the park parking areas.

Committee members acknowledged the repeated attempts to contact school leadership and offered to follow up. One committee member offered to contact the city manager to explore staff support for contacting the school administration and suggested having a uniformed city official attend a meeting with school staff to accelerate dialogue. Committee liaison and staff noted that code enforcement and police have been responding to parked vehicles and that the neighborhood association has been engaged.

The committee asked staff to follow up with the city manager and school district contacts and to report back to the committee. Navarro said the problem persists during middle-school dismissal times (later than elementary dismissal) and that prior ticketing and towing have not permanently reduced the parking concerns.

No enforcement policy changes were adopted at the meeting; the committee requested staff follow-up to seek a meeting with school administrators and to explore coordinated outreach and enforcement options.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Keizer Traffic Safety Bikeways Safety Cmte. 3/20/2025","oneSentenceSummary","A resident told the committee that multiple attempts to reach Claggett Creek Middle School administrators had not succeeded and that pick-up time parking is spilling into adjacent park areas; committee members offered to follow up with the city manager and police to seek solutions.","taxTitle","Keizer, Marion County, Oregon","taxId",54436,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6634287,"Keizer committee presses staff to prepare report on neighborhood speed reductions after speed studies",86,4750000,4836000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2723242-1a67419634057f06d88b5af47898cf0a&start=4750&end=4836","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2723242-1a67419634057f06d88b5af47898cf0a/thumbnail_4750000.jpg","/articles/6634287/Keizer/Marion-County/Oregon/Keizer-committee-presses-staff-to-prepare-report-on-neighborhood-speed-reductions-after-speed-studies","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6634287-109181a68299b00f9bdfd6ae96d6531c/orig.mp4?Expires=1776851480&Signature=SXqI8cOQPmLAgfLeA4zS2Zy0ocAc6-KNe3OCVGH36X7D9M1nf3zTVaQ65Yy-mfCa71~yLVq~NvwK82GnQvSmRgBTs6POw8xCStfnrT8xK2oc-NnyJ0Za2rRkXV8U90d9MT7yBpzP-w6AkoWahAWabmf82C3s1cAd2Rd-0790OZTHwvFmSmCbB-HsOS0fYUH-8TADFMmQLvPs0RtPQESUYIhxAs4wHlb4wFx8e14yV0-~E8dWUfIAfTI48mAjw2eftQ7HuTaBbUyLqzDZHKWBy5LLhLl1K0HOwnZfFcj~0xrJUoAacr9IvR9rBSbFFTZFtW55J2s8lkJkEXqQ7XnehQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At the March 20, 2025 meeting, the Keizer Traffic Safety, Bikeways and Pedestrian Committee reviewed results of recent speed studies and discussed next steps for pursuing reduced neighborhood speed limits.

Committee members said several speed studies have been completed (including Verta and Harmony Drive). One participant summarized a count that showed roughly 8,400 vehicles per week (about 1,200 vehicles per day) on a studied corridor; the transcript discussion notes that 85% of vehicles were recorded at 31 mph or below while the remaining vehicles exceeded that threshold. A committee member calculated that the count of higher-speed vehicles translated to about 279 vehicles per day traveling above the 32 mph threshold.

Members discussed the Neighborhood Traffic Management Program (NTMP) criteria and noted that while some streets met the volume criterion, they did not meet both NTMP criteria needed to automatically trigger higher-level engineering responses. Committee members said the next step is staff preparation of a formal report and recommendation for city council; that report will include background, consultant inputs and any necessary funding considerations.

Committee members discussed enforcement limits (an officer noted enforcement resources are limited) and the cost implications for any engineering fixes. Public Works and committee members said sign replacement and consultant work to change posted limits or implement engineering changes would have budget implications and could take time to progress through the budget process.

No new speed-limit reductions were adopted at the meeting. Committee members asked staff to consolidate the speed-study results and prepare the staff report to present to the council when resources and timing allow.","Committee members discussed completed speed studies on streets including Verta and Harmony Drive, noted enforcement and budget implications, and directed staff to prepare a report for city council on the recommended speed reductions and next steps.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6634291,"Keizer committee authorizes budget submission for green bike-crossing paint",353,3903000,4256000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2723242-1a67419634057f06d88b5af47898cf0a&start=3903&end=4256","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2723242-1a67419634057f06d88b5af47898cf0a/thumbnail_3903000.jpg","/articles/6634291/Keizer/Marion-County/Oregon/Keizer-committee-authorizes-budget-submission-for-green-bike-crossing-paint","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6634291-37d31dd64788be9a169b9466a7ae5d88/orig.mp4?Expires=1776851480&Signature=AaGOq377QfyuQ7Q3WhHx~xsnBaD4MY9xTd-6wvA6SvTchSpkzC2CZmV7L-WwL-KF5cvVN8VeE5I4W6qx-c62HLo-mn8ek7e3y0bfl44EEJ811f~3wXbWTdOeWQyFYfahGBPqunPlwfoqNxH56JYdxOzGHqYkxQkgq6-m-XL9AfY0OS~KQQ6MVo7TqR8nwaKnYiqh6BzP~KEatQcGk0mdlu92fD6jB2Qxf8IZ4ST7Cr4lYtwdjxcsPNEAap9citeEzTpmY1oz9SJ0frTidNSTQxBaFSD6BFWyNWv1JkwB0MydqbwuZb4LFUJdqIDKaNNp0vaN~Mq9LnYAkJFFcTGLQA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","On March 20, 2025, the Keizer Traffic Safety, Bikeways and Pedestrian Committee agreed to move forward with a budget request to paint several intersections green to improve bicycle crossings and visibility.

Committee members said they previously discussed a larger reconstruction plan that council rejected for cost reasons, then narrowed the idea to painted green crossings. Committee members and Public Works staff discussed that painting intersections is feasible but not currently funded in the city’s work plan, and that a budget request is the appropriate next step.

Public Works provided initial cost estimates and the committee asked for those figures to be used in the budget request. The committee authorized a member to complete and submit a formal budget request using Public Works’ estimates and to ensure the request meets the budget committee’s timeline. Committee members noted the budget request is to start the procurement/process; it does not guarantee funding in the 2025 budget.

Members discussed timing: the committee needs to provide budget materials in April so staff can include the request in the city’s budget packet. The committee approved the motion authorizing a named committee member to complete and submit the budget request and asked staff to circulate the final numbers and request text to the committee before it is submitted.

The motion passed at the meeting; committee members said they would present the request to the budget committee and noted that, even if the full program is not funded this year, initiating the request begins the formal consideration process.","The committee authorized a member to complete and submit a budget request for painting several intersections green to improve bicycle crossings; Public Works provided cost estimates and the committee will file the request with the budget committee.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6634295,"Keizer committee to pilot pedestrian flag program; forwards West Keizer application to Public Works",2406,1248000,3654000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2723242-1a67419634057f06d88b5af47898cf0a&start=1248&end=3654","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2723242-1a67419634057f06d88b5af47898cf0a/thumbnail_1248000.jpg","/articles/6634295/Keizer/Marion-County/Oregon/Keizer-committee-to-pilot-pedestrian-flag-program-forwards-West-Keizer-application-to-Public-Works","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6634295-14691f233276cd1bbe5d71e6f222701d/orig.mp4?Expires=1776851480&Signature=CUGNh-Zm1lvpjncUCVTZgxIr73clzWsO~tdgfphn7K4Uv4h1nYFxhGT2IiMabZcGWD7srWakfKYMm2Rx6tXXUR0HDSdWOmHDSElldEkbNqkJZSY-Yxdv5i9PEVNxfzNJF86zuRvNoZQXCCx7fpApIl-v0KEyO-IxiQhdskw-7kU18OsK8Aonu6rLumByQrXbPvo~OfsmDU2i1yZMyUb-5dZmAp~CY0EOgkjjgmYDWZ69ECQ2WzeJHcptH4poAPvJ-cV3a0xxIM2KetnwdmRZ~MdnWzar1VdVOQkN3NEji57c0fd1sBEiIf2PUUA9Deet8mVmlWbZsUZTdAZe3vh05A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","On March 20, 2025, the Keizer Traffic Safety, Bikeways and Pedestrian Committee received an update on a proposed pedestrian flag pilot and agreed to forward a West Keizer application to City of Keizer Public Works for staff review.

Tammy Seldevar, identified herself as representing West Keizer and said the pilot would run \"for 6 months\" with an expected start in June and conclude in December. She told the committee the city had offered \"$300 to go towards the materials for it,\" and that the pilot would be limited to two locations while the committee and city assess safety and usage.

The application revisions discussed at the meeting specify that proposed flag locations must be on collectors or local streets; major and minor arterials are excluded. The program will also limit sites to roads with a marked speed of 30 miles per hour or less. Seldevar said the city will provide a QR-code sticker for each flag holder so users can submit feedback directly to the city website; that feedback and neighborhood association input will be reviewed at three and six months.

Committee members and applicants discussed why higher-speed arterials were excluded. Committee members and city staff said they were reluctant to place flag holders on roads with higher posted speeds unless additional engineering measures (for example, flashing beacons or push-button crossings) were present. Multiple committee members noted that previous volunteer trials on higher-speed streets felt unsafe and that the pilot is intended to test whether the flag program is effective on lower-speed neighborhood streets before any broader rollout.

The committee’s procedural role was described as receiving and checking applications for completeness before Public Works performs a two-week site evaluation and communicates directly with the applicant. The application will be maintained on the Public Works section of the city website; if the pilot is continued after December, other locations could be requested through the same application process.

At the meeting the committee agreed to forward the West Keizer application to Public Works for its two-week review and decision. City staff and committee members also said the city retains authority to remove any pilot installation if staff deem it unsafe.

The committee discussed outreach and monitoring: if the pilot continues beyond December the city will monitor safety, maintenance, and public feedback and committee members recommended annual check-ins with neighborhood associations to ensure locations remain safe and maintained.

The committee did not approve permanent policy changes at the meeting; it advanced the application to staff-level review and endorsed the pilot timeline and monitoring plan.","The Keizer Traffic Safety, Bikeways and Pedestrian Committee heard an update on a pedestrian flag pilot and agreed to forward a West Keizer application to Public Works for staff review. The six-month pilot would start in June, be limited to two locations and include public feedback via a QR code.","actionData","errors"]
