Jim,
Thanks.  I can appreciate the information, AND the efforts of the
city.  However, there are 2 other speed bumps already on Oak Street near
Cadek Hall.  This will make three speed humps, all of which are within a 75
yd. distance.  A little over kill, I think.  Are there any plans to remove
one or more of them?  If not, then does anyone know who can be contacted to
discuss this possibility?

Thanks.
