Traci Halverson wants to incorporate additional speed limit and children at play signs along the road for the Bit-o-Green trailer park. Gauger suggested adding two 15 mile an hour speed limit signs and two children at play signs. The patrolmen will look at the area and suggest the best place to incorporate the new signs. Lucey will check with the county on placing permanent speed limit signs on the road. 

 

Traci Halverson also wants to replace the existing 4X8 Bit-o-Green sign with a new sign of the same size. She also was wondering about reflectors for better visibility to the entrance of the park.
