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.
