Leoti council discusses 7th Street traffic calming; seeks sheriff and EMS input
Summary
Councilors discussed reducing the speed limit on 7th Street from 30 mph to 20 mph and adding stop signs; the item was tabled so the city can consult the sheriff's department and LVFD/EMS because the street is a primary route to the hospital.
Councilors discussed options to slow traffic on 7th Street at the Oct. 21 meeting, including adding stop signs and lowering the posted speed from 30 mph to 20 mph. Council members emphasized the need to consult the sheriff's department and LVFD/EMS before making changes because 7th Street is a main route to the hospital; the matter was tabled until the next council meeting for those consultations.
The minutes do not record public comment on the proposal or provide traffic studies or projected timelines. The council did not adopt any regulatory changes at the Oct. 21 session and instead asked staff to seek input from relevant emergency services.
