There needs to be an undercover officer in the cross walk in front of the elderly housing complex.. The cars going by rarely stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk. I witnessed an elderly woman almost get hit by a vehicle that failed to stop.

In order to address this on-going issue, the police department conducted a series of crosswalk enforcement actions resulting in the issuance of over 60 citations. Officers have been advised of the issue and will continue enforcement when not answering emergency calls for service. The police also utilize a portable speed radar trailer to alert in-bound motorists of their speed during the summer months.
Potential physical measures (raised crosswalks) are being discussed in the downtown design to reduce motorist speed and increase pedestrian safety.
