Commission considers 30 mph speed zone on Nabers Drive after sheriff and commissioner complaints
Summary
At the request of Sheriff James and Commissioner Barry Cox, county staff presented a proposal to establish a 30 mph speed zone on Nabers Drive and add the road to the sheriff’s approved radar list; commissioners discussed mapping updates and enforcement practicalities.
County Manager James Shubert said the item to establish a 30 mph speed zone on Nabers Drive and add it to the county’s approved radar list was requested by Sheriff James and Commissioner Barry Cox in response to resident complaints about speeding. Shubert noted the roadway currently lacks posted speed limit signs and therefore is not on the sheriff’s approved radar list for enforcement.
Commissioner Jon Tindall asked who updates mapping for speed enforcement and navigation companies; Shubert answered that private mapping companies like Google or TomTom obtain data from GDOT or local county sources. The commission added the item to the regular meeting agenda for further action.
Why it matters: Posted speed limits and radar‑approval status affect local traffic enforcement capabilities and officer safety.
What’s next: The item will appear on the regular meeting agenda for possible ordinance or administrative action.
