Edmonston council approves speed bump at 4921 49th Ave; Crittenden petition left unresolved
Summary
Council voted unanimously to add a speed bump at 4921 49th Avenue; residents’ requests for a speed bump on Crittenden Street were discussed but no installation was approved, with the mayor recommending signage changes instead.
The Town of Edmonston Council voted to add a speed bump at 4921 49th Avenue during its Sept. 10, 2025 virtual meeting. Council Member Turberville moved the measure, Council Member McCauley seconded, and the motion carried with Ayes: Turberville, McCauley, Serrano, Johnson.
During public comment, Michelle Bonilla said several homeowners at the end of Crittenden in the 5000 block asked for a speed bump to slow traffic. “Michelle Bonilla indicated that several homeowners at the end of Crittenden in the 5000 block would like to have a speed bump installed,” the minutes record. The council also considered a petition asking for a speed bump at 5002 Crittenden; Mayor Tracy Gant suggested trying new signage before installing a physical speed hump and no further action was taken at the meeting.
The approved motion to consider adding the 49th Avenue traffic calming measure was recorded in the minutes as: “Council Member Turberville motioned, seconded by Council Member McCauley, to accept the consideration of adding a speed bump at 4921 49th Avenue.” The minutes show the vote as unanimous. The council did not place the Crittenden petition on an immediate installation schedule and discussed signage as an interim step.
Next steps for the 49th Avenue installation — including timing, contractor selection, and funding — were not specified in the minutes; the transcript records only the council’s approval to accept consideration of adding the speed bump.
