TO: WILLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM' PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ENGINEERING DIVISION
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 96-116, ESTABLISRING PRIMA FACIE SPEED LIMITS ON CITY
STREETS ___
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council, at their meeting of November 18, 1996, adopt Resolution No. 96-116
establishing dtywide speed limits.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact to the City involved with this item.
BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to the Califomia Vehicle Code (CVC), the City has the ability to establish prima facie speed limits on
city streets on the basis of engineering and traffic surveys. CVC Section 627 indicates that engineering and
traffic surveys need to be conducted in accordance with methods determined by the California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) and shall include, among other requirements, consideration of all of the following:
_
1. Prevailing speeds as determined by traffic engineering measurements.
2. Accident records.
3. Highway, traffic, and roadside conditions not readily apparent to the driver.
The CVC also indicates that speed limits on City streets must be justified by engineering and traffic surveys
conducted within five year periods for police enforcement involving the use of radar or other electronic devices
which measure the speed of moving objects.
DISCUSSION.-.
The Engineering Division has completed a citywide engineering and traffic surveY.~/~stablishing speed limits for
City streets. The study validated all prior citywide speed limits enforced by radar, and establishes dates for
furore speed limit studies.
Standard engineering procedures have been used to conduct the engineering and traffic surveys and to establish
the recommended speed limits. These surveys allow for cominued enforcement of posted speed limits by the
Tustin Police Departmem with the use of radar.
