She expressed concern about the vindictive language that was used at the n~ghborhood meeting.

Councilmember Peterson, regarding Zeolite, inquired of the success the City has had with speed bumps. ~ Mr. Jankowski r~sponded that the City has done a speed study and there is a decrease of six to eight miles per hoi~ at the 85th percentile. Thus, they have proven effective at reducing speed. Councilmember Peterson stated he is not quite ready to vote on speed bumps. Maybe increased patrol would wor~ - or what we have done prior to this could ease the situation. Councilmember Beahen stated she would at least like to see the speed monitored for a period of time.
