River Ridge approves $105,000 AV‑Tech speed‑radar installations after data showing 800 violations
Summary
The board approved AV‑Tech estimates to install three permanent 15" solar speed‑radar signs and one mobile unit with cloud-device fees for a combined $105,000 after staff reported one unit recorded 800 violations over three weeks.
The Board approved a contract to install three permanent 15‑inch solar speed‑radar signs and a mobile unit under AV‑Tech Estimates 24150 and 24151 for a combined total of $105,000. Operations Manager Shane Willis presented the long‑term traffic‑calming plan, and PSGRC General Manager Eric Long recommended moving an existing unit after it recorded heavy speeding activity.
Mr. Long told the Board the existing unit "clocked 800 varied speeding violations over a three week period," prompting discussion of placement, pole purchases and cloud‑device subscription costs of $1,500 per device per year. On motion by Mr. Schultz and seconded by Mr. Blumenthal the Board approved the AV‑Tech proposal, with funding coming from the traffic‑calming budget.
