Commission considers 30 mph limit for North Center Point Road; motion to group speed items made, vote not recorded
Summary
Commissioners discussed a proposed 30 mph speed limit for North Center Point Road and a paired speed item, and a motion was made to group and approve both items; the transcript does not record a final vote.
The Sumner County Highway Commission discussed establishing a 30 mph speed limit for North Center Point Road and a second related speed-limit item during its Sept. 2 meeting.
A commissioner described North Center Point Road as a small road that previously lacked a posted speed limit and said an increase in traffic prompted the proposed 30 mph limit. “Because of the traffic and the increase in traffic as of late ... felt like 30 mile an hour was a was a good speed,” the commissioner said.
A motion was made on the record to group and approve items 1 and 2 — the two speed-limit items — and a second was heard. The transcript does not record a vote tally or final outcome for that motion.
Commissioners asked procedural questions about whether the items required formal votes. The chair acknowledged the items and the motion; later discussion at the meeting moved to inspection and acceptance issues on a different agenda item. Because the meeting record does not include a clear vote tally, the outcome and any effective date for the proposed speed-limit changes were not recorded in the transcript.
