SOUTH WHIDBEY RECORD: Traffic, utility rate studies planned for city of Langley

The city of Langley will participate in studies concerning the two hot topics of speeding on Sixth Street and of utility rates. The city’s police and public works departments will conduct a 3-month study of traffic with an emphasis on Sandy Point Road and Sixth Street. Council members were excited about this. Councilmember Peter Morton pointed out that the study has resulted from citizen comments. Councilmember Craig Cyr said, “I’ve been talking about this issue for my entire term on the council.” Councilmember Thomas Gill said “I’m glad we’re finally doing something, after 32 years of complaining myself.”

Also, Interim Public Works Director Randi Perry told the council that the University of North Carolina will be working with previously gathered city utility rates data to complete a study, at no significant cost to Langley. For the details, see the story by Kira Erickson in the South Whidbey Record.
