Council reviews Michael Hunt Drive speed‑bump survey; staff to expand outreach
Summary
Staff reported that Everbridge outreach to 562 contacts produced 68 responses on proposed raised traffic‑calming features: 42 in support, 21 opposed, and 5 undecided. Council directed additional door‑to‑door outreach and requested design visuals that allow emergency vehicle passage.
City staff provided an update on outreach and survey results for proposed raised traffic calming features (speed bumps with emergency vehicle gaps) on Michael Hunt Drive between Santa Anita Avenue and Peck Road. The Everbridge geo‑fenced outreach reached 562 contacts in the project area and yielded 68 responses: 42 in support, 21 opposed, and 5 undecided.
Staff said the proposed raised sections would include gaps for wider emergency vehicles and would be accompanied by signage and pavement markings; fire‑department staff had discussed acceptable design options. Council members noted the low response rate and recommended door‑to‑door outreach to produce more representative input. One councilmember pointed out that similar measures on nearby streets appeared to be working and urged further community engagement and review of a proposed design before implementation.
Staff committed to providing design visuals and additional outreach results at a future meeting to inform the paving schedule and potential inclusion of Michael Hunt Drive in upcoming street work.
