Resident Kristen Novak asked the board to add flashing stop signs at the Kimball Woods entrance, citing frequent drivers rolling through and children walking to school. Police and the city engineer reported no crashes and recommended against flashing signs; the board voted unanimously to decline the request.
The full story
Kristen Novak told the Board of Public Works and Safety she and neighbors in the Kimball Woods subdivision see drivers routinely roll through the stop signs at Duneland Beach Drive and Jamestown Drive and asked the city to install flashing stop signs to make the signs harder to miss. “I live at 9 Bristol Drive…there are a lot of families in our neighborhood now, people walking, kids riding bikes,” Novak said. “I’m just asking for some flashing stop signs, so they’re harder to miss and drivers are more likely to stop.”
