The incidents of motorists speeding through out neighborhood have grown significantly lately. Several residents report nearly being hit by speeding motorists recently and one actually was hit and hurt badly. The first step in getting the city to help is to submit a formal petition requesting traffic calming generally and we have already started circulating that and the response has been very positive. We have to get at least 50% of neighborhood residents to sign our petition before city officials will meet with us about traffic calming and this is a high bar because it’s hard to get people at home.  Every signature is important, so please sign the petition when it comes around (we will also make it available so people can come and sign the petition at a specific time and location — details TBD).  Please support this initiative and help us keep our streets safe for everyone!
