River Ridge approves $105,000 for three permanent and one mobile radar speed signs
Summary
The board approved AV‑Tech estimates to install three permanent 15" solar-powered radar signs, one mobile unit, and associated cloud devices for a combined $105,000, and discussed moving an existing unit that recorded about 800 speed violations in three weeks.
The River Ridge CDD approved My AV‑Tech LLC Estimates 24150 and 24151 to install three permanent 15‑inch solar speed radar signs with cameras and messaging, plus one mobile unit, at a combined cost of $105,000. The package includes $1,500 per year for each cloud traffic device. The motion was made by Mr. Schultz, seconded by Mr. Blumenthal, and approved with all in favor.
Eric Long said an existing unit had clocked about 800 varied speeding violations over a three‑week period and suggested moving that unit 20 to 30 yards, which would require purchasing a pole estimated at about $1,200 from Paramount Asphalt. Board discussion covered proposed installation areas, a $150,000 budgeted amount for traffic calming, PSGRC criteria for warnings and fines, and a suggestion that the homeowners association cover cloud‑device costs and offset them with covenant traffic fine revenue.
