Summary

Staff presented background and data supporting a proposed speed-limit change from 25 to 35 mph on a segment of a city road; council will consider a two-reading ordinance (first reading in August, second reading in September).

Staff briefed the council about a proposed adjustment to the posted speed limit on a local road (referred to in the packet as Walled Kitchen Road), proposing an increase from 25 to 35 mph on the segment outside the park while retaining a reduced 25-mph zone near the soccer fields.

"Raising it from 25 to 35," staff said, and council members thanked the police department for gathering traffic information. The item will return as a two-reading ordinance—first reading in August and second reading in September—so councilors and staff can confirm signage, transitions at city limits and any neighborhood concerns before adoption.
