COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 6/3/2008 -Ord. No. 18124-06-2008
CONTINUED FROM A PREVIOUS WEEK
DATE: Tuesday, May 20, 2008
LOG NAME: 2020SPEEDZONE2 REFERENCE NO.: G-16148
SUBJECT:
Adoption of an Ordinance Amending Speed Limits Chapter 22, Motor Vehicle and Traffic, of the City
Code
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached ordinance amending Speed Limits Chapter 22,
Motor Vehicle and Traffic, of the City Code.
DISCUSSION:
Every few years the Transportation and Public Works Department reviews the speed limits in the City Code
in order to make corrections, additions, or amendments, where appropriate.
The requested changes are due to new speed limits or adjustments resulting from development or school
zones for new schools; text corrections; and limits/block range corrections. In addition there are a few
speed zone changes requested by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) due to speed surveys
completed. (The City of Fort Worth must adopt its speed limits so that City police officers can enforce the
speed limits)
The Texas Motor Vehicle Laws specify that Procedures for Establishing Speed Zones must be followed to
post speed limits. This procedure is used by all municipalities within the State of Texas. All the
recommendations in the ordinance and exhibit are based on Traffic Engineering Studies, in accordance with
the Texas Motor Vehicle Laws, performed by either City staff or TxDOT.
The attached proposed ordinance incorporates all the above and amends the City Speed Zone Ordinance,
Chapter 22, Motor Vehicles and Traffic, of the City Code, by making certain additions and deletions
recommended by TPW.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that this action will not have a material effect on City funds.
