In its first meeting of 2026, new members were sworn in to fill Lima City Council’s 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th Ward seats.
Based on that feedback, the city developed a range of traffic-calming strategies aimed at improving safety and quality of life for residents. Proposed measures include high-visibility enforcement, raised crosswalks and other tools designed to slow traffic and discourage unnecessary through traffic.
"It's important that we're responsive to our residents and our business owners and our community members," Begonia said. "We really take all of the feedback that they share with us, and we turn that into action through our programs, initiatives, and services."
