Wow!

Accountability.With school starting back on July 29 we want to remind everyone that the school zone cameras will be back active for school days. The times on the signs are for the lowered speed limit of 25mph. By state law it is still a school zone as long as classes are in session. With that the 35mph speed limit is also enforced by the camera system. ... See MoreSee Less
