On the agenda

As the city filed it

Speeding has created a dangerous situation on Mondeo Drive and Florina Boulevard. I am very concerned for the safety of residents specifically children and seniors. I hosted a community consultation meeting and residents expressed their concerns relating to community safety and the increase in speeding vehicles using both residential streets to access the main roads. The installation of speed humps on Mondeo Drive is one of the tools to assist with discouraging speeding, as well as speed reduction on both streets.

Given the community concern and the proximity to an elementary school, I am requesting an expedited installation of speed humps on Mondeo Drive and speed reduction to 30km/h for both Mondeo Drive and Florina Blvd.
