"We will also present a draft ordinance to convert the intersection of 6th St and Division St into an all-way stop intersection at the next Council meeting."
Newark Avenue and cars speeding is the main problem here, no matter what type of sign you place here it won't do any good unless there are lights or at least a stop sign here.
What does the traffic assessment consists of? Has anyone been here and seen the speeding cars above 25 mph down the hill? It's worse than the turnpike most of the time with cars speeding without a care in the world. This area is becoming highly residential with new condos and extra property tax revenue to the city, is this how you attract new revenue to your organization?

short video of speeding cars well above 25mph. It's like a race track with no street parking to slow down drivers, any lights or speed humps. Complete incompetence on the city's part, I am holding any property tax payments at this point. There is nothing else I can do as a regulary citizen.

It gets worse after 8 pm and early morning when there is no traffic. Cars just zoom through with no regard. Please give us an update, we deserve an answer

Closing tickets without action is not going to make problems go away, we as residents are paying thousands of dollars to bankroll the city and deserve the service we need. This video clearly shows the urgent need for traffic control shot on brought daylight and things only get worse at night time.

I am already not paying property taxes until incompetent city employees addresses this problem instead of closing tickets saying oh it’s a dublicate. Local city governments already have a bad reputation but come on...
