2025 Citizen Petition

The 2025 Sherry Drive Traffic Calming petition was initiated by residents in response to growing concerns about speeding, cut through traffic, and increasingly unsafe driving behaviors on a street that functions as part of a walkable beach community.

Prompted in part by a series of close calls and a December 2025 distracted driving crash, the petition gathered over 50 signatures of community support to formally request that the City evaluate safer, more context appropriate solutions for the corridor. At its core, the petition is about aligning the design and function of Sherry Drive with how it is actually used by residents, families, and visitors every day. Moving forward, the effort is focused on working collaboratively with the City to expand the conversation beyond limited studies and toward practical, design based improvements that reduce risk, calm traffic, and create a safer street for everyone.
