The council adopted Resolution 2026-10 to lower posted speeds on Knuckles Street and Brown Street to 20 mph and install required signage. Several councilors emphasized that town entry signage is needed so the state default speed does not take effect at town limits; one councilor warned that without proper entry signage, speeds could revert to the state default "and becomes a 55."

A motion to approve the resolution was made, seconded and adopted by voice vote; council discussed identifying where signs are missing and how public-works maintenance will sustain markings and signs.
