CORTLANDTNew York State Troopers handed out 84 tickets along Route 9 in Cortlandt on Saturday, ranging from seatbelt violations to speeding violations reaching 93 miles per hour.
The Town of Cortlandt has already requested increased enforcement in residential neighborhoods from Westchester County Police, who, like the New York State Police, have barracks in Cortlandt Manor. This increased enforcement is welcome news to Cortlandt residents, as complaints to the town precipitated the towns request for more enforcement.
Members of The Daily Cortlandts Facebook community have described residential Cortlandt streets as a raceway, according to Debbie Doorley, to cars whipping around, said Michael Mitchell.
