Summary

The council adopted Ordinance 05-2026 to set the East Centennial Boulevard speed limit at 40 mph ahead of the road opening scheduled for Feb. 26; Smith County set the county portion at 40 mph as well.

City Manager Carolyn Caldwell told the council that the Centennial Boulevard road opening is scheduled for Feb. 26 and that Smith County determined the county section's speed limit would be 40 mph. On that basis, Councilmember Jerretta Nance Pate moved to adopt Ordinance 05-2026 to set the speed limit on East Centennial Blvd. to 40 mph; the motion was seconded by Sallie Black and approved unanimously.

The ordinance establishes the posted speed limit for the city-maintained portion of East Centennial Boulevard to match the county determination, enabling signage and enforcement once the roadway opens to traffic.
