Does anyone know how we go about getting speedbumps in the neighborhood? I noticed that thye recently put them in the neigborhood around Harding on the other side of Perkins. Flamingo and Dee are notorious streets for speeding and I ride a bicycle a lot and heve been buzzed many times by speeding cars. Any ideas.

I agree with Brovo 2, I to would like to see Mallory closed at Cherry Rd, I would also like to see Mallory closed a Perkins. That would keep a lot of low life people  from  West of Cherry out of our area. These people are trash, and they place a lot of trash in front of my home.  I say Close Mallory at perkins, and cherry. Hell close all the street that feed onto Mallory.

I know people in High Point Terrace that tell me it takes a big effort by a lot of people to get speedbumps installed on a residential street.

You have to petition the city and then they have to do a traffic study and another study of proximity to city schools and what not and that all costs money.

I would rather see my tax dollars go for more police patrols in the area.
