Traffic safety plea near new YMCA sparks city action call
Observations by LEE E KELLY warn of speeding cars near the new YMCA with narrow children at risk. The note urges a safety zone and a 20 mph limit to reduce dangers at the intersection, noting a red light but frequent fast driving endangering youths in Thomasville.

The plea asks authorities to act to protect the youth.
