Resident George Ludlam asked the committee to pursue a county-conducted speed survey for Route 557 (Woodbine Road) in Steelmontown during public comment on Aug. 7.
The committee moved to authorize Administrator Jim to contact the county engineer and request a speed survey; the motion was seconded and passed by roll call.
