Page 2 of 3 <br /> <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />The project has been ongoing developing a map of streets for potential speed limit reductions. <br />Engineering reviews and discussions have been ongoing to help identify applicable streets, <br />signage, locations and processes to potentially reduce speed limits. <br /> <br />Coordination <br />Speed limits have been discussed with City Council, staff, Ramsey County Engineering and <br />Sheriff, City Attorney and Prosecutor to ensure proper sign locations from engineering, legal and <br />enforcement perspectives. Final coordination efforts on sign placement with adjacent cities and <br />Ramsey County Traffic Engineering to ensure “sign pollution” and conflicting messages are <br />eliminated will take place if a decision is made to move forward. <br /> <br />Sign Locations/Sign Inventory/Speed Limit Lamp <br />Local City streets and MSA streets are eligible for speed limit reductions by the Council. Signs <br />locations were reviewed and 25, 30, 35 and 40 MPH sign locations have been placed on the <br />speed limit map. The Arden Hills MSA roads are shown on the speed limit maps as the thicker <br />dashed lines. <br /> <br />Citywide Speed Limit Sign/Communications/Code <br />Speed limit locations other than the “default” speed limit are signed, currently speeds other than <br />30 MPH. If a city-wide speed limit is reduced to 25 MPH, the default 30 MPH speed limit signs <br />would be replaced with 25 MPH signs or removed as applicable. Signs and locations have been <br />discussed. For cost and consistent messaging, the 25 MPH speed limit sign, with an “unless <br />otherwise posted” placard appropriately placed seem to be the most applicable signs to use. <br /> <br />Communications with the public can continue with public hearing(s) at the Planning <br />Commission and/or City Council levels, providing information to residents on the City website, <br />email, City-wide emails, postings at City facilities, etc. and to the motoring public with “traffic <br />change ahead” signs once implemented. <br /> <br />Next steps: <br />• Finalize coordination with County, field verify sign locations and message to public <br />• Finalize any necessary Code changes, Council actions, public hearing date(s) and order <br />signing <br />• Council actions and sign installation <br /> <br />Budget Impact <br /> <br />Signing Materials - $3,900 <br /> <br />Replace 23 existing 30 MPH signs with 25 MPH signs. Seven existing 25 MPH signs will be <br />reused (and remain on the sign replacement schedule) and 16 new 25 MPH signs will be needed. <br />New City-wide 25 MPH entrance signs will be needed (up to 29 new signs). <br /> <br />Reuse 7 existing 25 MPH signs $ 0.00 <br />New 25 MPH signs (16) $ 1,300 <br />New City-wide 25 MPH signs (29) $ 2,600 <br />
