Bagging groceries: first SPEED LIMIT | from page 4 effect on those roadways that we’re trying to change because there was a regulatory vote and approval by the selectmen,” Crabtree said. “It can only be changed by a study and we just did the study. The study shows that they’re driving within the 25th percentile, and in some cases would have to be increased if we petition the state,” he said. Other remedies besides speed limits Board of Selectmen Vice Chair Jeffrey Cicolini amplified Crabtree’s explanation. Cicolini said he is convinced that any petition for a 25 mph speed limit “would get kicked back because this report would basically void us saying that 25 is warranted on all of the regulated streets.” “The DOT won’t support that. She [the consultant] can’t change the report. She’s not going to falsify the report to say 25 is appropriate,” he said. Cicolini, who made the motion to have a 25 mph speed limit adopted on several streets, said he believes there have been some improvements despite the state denying the SPEED LIMIT | SEE PAGE 4 Thursdays at 7 p.m. Cliftondale Church of the Nazarene, 60 Essex St., Saugus; 781233-2886.
