CONSENT ITEM — 7I <br />,i` I�EN HILLS <br />MEMORANDUM <br />DATE: December 12, 2022 <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br />Dave Perrault, City Administrator <br />FROM: David Swearingen, P.E. Public Works Director / City Engineer <br />SUBJECT: Ordinance 2022-011 Amending Chapter 8, Section 800, Subsection 800.04 <br />Regarding Traffic and Parking Regulations and Summary Ordinance <br />Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: <br />N/A N/A N/A <br />Council Should Consider <br />Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: <br />• Ordinance 2022-011 Amending Chapter 8, Section 800, Subsection 800.04 Regarding Traffic <br />and Parking Regulations and Authorizing Publication of a Summary Ordinance <br />Ordinance revisions requires a simple majorityfor approval. A Summary Ordinance requires a 415 vote. <br />Discussion <br />Minnesota Statute 169.14 Speed Limits, Zones; Radar regulates highway and roadway speeds in <br />Minnesota. Subdivision 2 sets maximum speed limits on a variety of roads within a Municipality, <br />such as 10 mph in alleys, 30 mph in urban districts, and 25 mph on residential roadways, if adopted <br />by the road authority. In August 2019, the Minnesota Legislature changed the Statutes governing <br />speed limits on city streets. The changes allow cities to establish speed on roads under the City's <br />jurisdiction, other than the statutory limits, without conducting an engineering and traffic <br />investigation. Any speed limit changes must be implemented in a consistent and understandable <br />manner. "The city must erect appropriate signs to display the speed limit. A city that uses the <br />authority under this subdivision must develop procedures to set speed limits based on the city's <br />safety, engineering, and traffic analysis. At a minimum, the safety, engineering, and traffic analysis <br />must consider national urban speed limit guidance and studies, local traffic crashes, and methods to <br />effectively communicate the change to the public." City Council has discussed speed limit changes <br />on various roads, and called for a city-wide reduction on City owned and maintained streets, for a <br />speed limit reduction from 30 MPH to 25 MPH. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
