New Speed Camera Locations

On or after June 1st, 2010 a speed camera will be put in place in the 3700 block of southbound Rhode Island Avenue. This camera will assist the police department in enforcing the 25 mph speed limit southbound on Rhode Island Avenue between 38th Street and 34th Street. The camera will be operational from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m. Monday through Friday. Effective immediately violations recorded by this camera will result in the violator receiving a notice of violation.

On or after June 1st, 2010 a speed camera will be put in place in the 3100 block of Queens Chapel Road (near the intersection of Buchanan Street).

It would help if you post speed limit signs on Rhode Island Avenue southbound to indicate 25MPH Zone ahead and improve the speed limit warning signs or other physical indications of a School Zone ahead. The most prominent Speed Limit sign is a 35 MPH sign at 4404 RI Ave and then none after that until a 25MPH a half block after 37th Street intersection and beyond the school. This is a dangerous situation as the signs are inadequate to warn motorists of the School Zone till after they pass through it.

Please check the speed limit signs before the 37th street intersection on Rhode Island Ave. Southbound. I only saw a 35 MPH sign at 4404 RI Ave and then didn't see the 25MPH sign until a half block below 37th street (southbound) after passing through the school zone. There should be clearer signs or street markings warning motorists of a school zone ahead as it is a very unsafe situation to have 35MPH signs and then none following that until you are beyond the intersection and the school. Thank you for your attention to this potential safety issue.

Parking Citation Collection Notices

As you read this entry, many of our residents may have received a collection notice regarding one or more unpaid parking citations. We have received at least a hundred telephone calls, and our Records staff is quite taxed sorting out those notices that were received in error, and those that are legitimate. Just a few notes of caution that I’d like to pass along to help make things easier for all concerned. First, no member of the police department staff will void, cancel or otherwise dispose of a valid collection notice. We are also not authorized to make any payment arrangements or reduce the amount owed to the City. The staff at City Hall is under the same constraints. Persons who receive a collection notice and have concerns that it was issued in error should call the police department during regular business hours and our staff will research the citation. All payments are to be made either to the collection agency directly or at City Hall. The police department does not acce...
