LACONIA — City officials are moving quickly to place signage warning motorists they may encounter students as they approach the intersection of Messer Street and Opechee Street, where Lily Johnson lost her life and Alyssa Miner was severely injured when they were struck by an SUV last month. Within days of the tragedy, the City Council, on the recommendation of the Police Commission, directed City Man-

ager Scott Myers to oversee the installation of appropriate signals. Yesterday Myers informed city councilors and school officials that, after discussions with a traffic consultant, solar-powered signs designating a school zone fitted with a flashing yellow beacons have been chosen. The signals can be programmed and set to operate during specific spans of time in the morning and afternoon. State law requires motorists to reduce their speed in designated school zones see INtErsECtION page 10
