Resident delivers petition asking council to address speeding on Choctaw Trail
Summary
A resident of Choctaw Trail presented a petition signed by 17 of 25 households asking the council to consider traffic‑calming measures (stop signs or other interventions) to address persistent speeding through the Timber Oaks neighborhood; staff advised filing the petition with the clerk for agenda placement.
During public comment, a resident of 1214 Choctaw Trail described ongoing speeding in the Timber Oaks neighborhood and said household signatures show community concern. The resident said she had collected 17 of 25 signatures on a petition asking the city to explore permanent measures such as speed bumps or stop signs to reduce through‑traffic speed.
She noted that previous repositioning of speed limit signs had not solved the problem and that many signees are senior residents who are frequently outside. Staff advised the resident to submit the petition to the clerk so the council can place the item on an upcoming agenda and evaluate engineering options.
