A Clifton resident asked the council on Aug. 2 to replace two nonworking speed-control signs in front of his house and acquire two additional radar message signs for town use. The council added the item to the September agenda for additional public review and comment.
Resident Jim Chesley requested that two nonworking signs in front of his house be replaced and suggested two additional signs for town use, citing a desire for consistency with Fairfax County signage and careful consideration of strobing or colored lights. Councilmember Steve Effros moved to add speed control signs to the September meeting agenda and publicize information for public comment; Councilmember Darrell Poe seconded. The motion passed 5-0.
Materials distributed with the meeting packet include a vendor quote from All Traffic Solutions for four SpeedAlert 18 radar message signs and accessories with a sales total of $14,642. The quote lists model features, pricing for optional strobes, and a 60-day validity period. Councilmembers directed that the proposal be posted for community feedback before further action in September.
