The Gregory City Council voted to adopt Ordinance 2026-04 on second reading at its July 20 meeting, reducing residential speed limits to 20 miles per hour.
The ordinance was advanced on a motion by Councilmember Alex Hamilton, seconded by Kristi Drey; the minutes record 'All ayes. Motion carried.' Council also discussed buying 35 Barco 20-mph speed limit signs but took no action on that purchase at this meeting.
Supporters said lowering speeds addresses safety concerns on residential streets; council members agreed to revisit sign procurement in a future meeting and to schedule chip sealing or sign installation following budget and procurement review. The ordinance takes effect following statutory requirements for enactment and publication.
