"Commissioners directed staff to work with stakeholders, including the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, to draft an amendment to the ordinance, which establishes the school zone speed enforcement program to expand enforcement to additional school zones in unincorporated Hillsborough County," Katie said in the county's meeting recap. The communications summary said the amendment would help ensure safe corridors for students walking, biking and riding to and from school.
