Council reviews traffic advisory: speed humps proposed near day cares, ordinance pending
Summary
A Traffic Advisory recommended changes to some speed limits, installation of speed humps near Mother Goose Land and Precious Cargo Day Cares, and purchase of a speed data recorder; the council directed staff to prepare a new ordinance reflecting the recommendations.
On April 22 the council reviewed recommendations from an April 17 Traffic Advisory meeting that included changing certain speed limits, installing speed humps near Mother Goose Land and Precious Cargo Day Cares, and purchasing a speed-data recorder to gather additional traffic information. The minutes state a new ordinance will be prepared to implement the advisory group's suggestions.
The Traffic Advisory specifically recommended three actions: speed-limit adjustments, targeted speed humps near two childcare locations, and acquisition of a speed data recorder to inform placements. The minutes do not record opposition or a vote on the ordinance language; the advisory recommendations will be carried forward into a draft ordinance for future council consideration.
Councilors did not provide timing or funding details for installation or equipment purchase in the minutes; staff follow-up will be required to specify costs and scheduling.
