Jul 28, 2026

Administrator Aitken reported multiple incidents of speed-bump vandalism—units removed, T-posts bent, and a camera stolen—primarily on Brambleberry Drive; staff installed 16-inch lag anchors and noted heavy construction traffic as a contributing factor. Council acknowledged divided public sentiment and will consider placement strategy going forward.
