Speed humps require a traffic study, which is conducted by Charlotte and Harrisburg DOT respectively. The requirements are:
- You must have a certain number of vehicles driving through a high-traffic area.
- Once you have reached that number, approval must be granted by the Fire Chief.*
*Response time by emergency vehicles is measured in seconds, as opposed to minutes. Each second required for an emergency vehicle to traverse an area can be the difference between life and death.
Please call 311 or the towing company listed on signs. If signs are not listed, and there is a no parking ordinance, please contact your respective municipality.
Duke Energy is currently in the process of clearing a backlog for street light evaluations throughout the area. The Neighborhood Safety Team has been working with municipal officials to have the neighborhood evaluated.
Lights for areas within the City of Charlotte can be requested through 311. Harrisburg & Mecklenburg County (outside of City Limits) fall under the responsibility of the Homeowners Association.
Street Lights that are out; however, do fall under Duke Energy. Please contact them or use the following website to report an outage.
Private roads in the Townhomes & county-only roads that have not been turned over to the City are the responsibility of the Homeowners Association. All city/town-controlled roads are maintained by the municipal government. To report issues, call 311 (in CharMeck) or Town of Harrisburg.
