Sheriff's office corrects traffic numbers
Sheriff's deputies issued 35
traffic citations in March and 28 in February.
A deputy reporting to the
Sisters City Council on Thursday, April 11 gave incorrect numbers that
led councilors to question whether there has been enough traffic enforcement
in Sisters.
The deputy reported one citation
in March and none in February.
It turned out that those numbers
were for criminal citations, not standard violations.
According to Mayor Steve Wilson,
the sheriff's office will revise its report format to clarify the statistics.
Wilson said the clarified
numbers reassured him that the sheriff's office is providing good traffic
enforcement.
"They confirmed that traffic
safety and traffic issues will remain a high priority for servicing Sisters
because of the highway," the mayor said.
