Sheriff’s report finds speeding problem on Main Street; council records need for action
Summary
A sheriff’s traffic report presented to the Trappe council shows a speeding issue on Main Street that "needs to be addressed," the council recorded; no specific remedies were adopted at the Feb. 5 meeting.
President Schmidt told the council a report from the Sheriff’s Department indicates speeding is a problem on Main Street and that it "needs to be addressed." The minutes record the council’s awareness of the finding but do not record an immediate action plan or vote during the meeting.
No members proposed a specific traffic‑calming measure or enforcement change in the recorded minutes; the item appears as an informational report. Next steps — such as further analysis by public works, targeted enforcement or a follow‑up agenda item — were not specified in the transcript. Residents concerned about Main Street speed will likely await a subsequent council meeting for proposed remedies or staff recommendations.
