Concerned citizens that live on Pine bluff Road between School Rd and the Mazon River bridge spoke regarding speeding vehicles creating unsafe conditions and noise pollution for families that live there. Recommendations included speed readers, red flashing lights on speed signs, additional signage and increased speed traps. A speed study was done in 2022 that did not warrant a speed adjustment.
