City Engineer has reviewed the area and found adequate signs and speed humps in the vicinity of the school. Therefore, the speeding issue is an enforcement issue.

The Sheriff has been contacted to step up enforcement.

I'd love to see the study they did to show adequate safety measures for the public on Preston. I'll stop by city hall this week and talk to Saba to review that study. I routinely see cars doing 40+ in this area. Enforcement wont work since we only have one sheriff's car for our whole city. Signs dont slow people down and there are no speed bumps on Preston at this time. A simple stop sign half way down Preston at the cross streets may make them think twice of slowing but i wouldn't bet my kids life on it. F.Y I. my kid was almost hit by a speeding car on Monday on Preston and this is not the first time I've brought this up to the city. Behind the elementary isn't a drop off zone, it says no parking. But there is a crossing guard there to facilitate the parents who want to take short cuts and speed through our residential streets. The first line in the city mission is to preserve and protect the community, so what gives?

Pubic Works Director is now Yanni Dimitri

Good Morning Mr. Jones,
I have evaluated this area a few months ago and found adequate signs pertaining to the school zone on Brentwood Street as well as speed humps. Speed bumps do not currently exist as they are allowed only in parking lots and not on public streets.

I'd like to meet with you soon during drop-off and /or pick-up times to further evaluate and discuss options.
I had emailed you this morning and I look forward to your call.

- Best Regards, Yanni Demitri, Public Works Director

Public Works Director contacted resident.

I'll refer this matter again to the school Principal as well as law enforcement.
In the meantime, I'll be installing more speed limit signs in early January. The installation has already been scheduled.

Director of Public Works
