Executive Summary: The purpose of this report is to adopt an ordinance to update posted speed limits on designated streets citywide. An updated Engineering and Traffic Survey (”Survey”) has been prepared which validates the existing posted speed limit along 141 city roadway segments and allows for reducing the posted speed limit for 30 roadway segments. Having a current Survey is necessary to allow the Police Department to continue radar speed enforcement in the City.
The ordinance was introduced by the City Council at its February 20, 2024 meeting. The ordinance is now before the Council for adoption.
