Council OKs $5,310 purchase for two radar speed-display signs
Summary
The council approved Purchase Order No. 25PD02 to buy two Radarsign TC-400 speed display signs with data tracking for $5,310, funded from the Special Highway Reserve. Chief Mathies said the portable units will go into 'sleep' mode when not active.
The La Cygne City Council voted unanimously to approve Purchase Order No. 25PD02 for $5,310 to purchase two Radarsign TC-400 speed display radar signs with data tracking. The funding source cited was the Special Highway Reserve fund.
Police Chief Zachary Mathies told the council the signs discussed at a prior meeting are portable and have a low-power standby feature. "They are the portable signs and the ones that would go into 'sleep' mode," he said. Council members expressed general support and the motion passed 4-0.
The purchase aims to bolster traffic-safety enforcement and data collection on traffic speeds within the city; the council did not specify immediate installation locations during the meeting.
