The need for the proposed ordinance come about after certain questions were raised concerning the present ordinances , The first of these questiom is Mether the City can, prohibit all�speeds in excess of the posted speed lindt. This question is bised upon Sections 169 and 166 of the State statute regulating speed.ing, Article 6701d, Revised Civil Statutes. Section 169 states Gat in setting speed limits, the City Council, "***under no circumstances the authority to modify or alter the bass Lc rule establishi,_�d iii paragraph (a) of Section 1661<**. " The "basic rule" set forth in this paragraph (a) , simply stated, is that lawful. speeds are only those whidi axe reasonable and prudent under the condi- tions existing at the time. The "basic Me" also provides a legal presump- t.,L�.)n to the effect that the maxianma reasonable and prudent speed for the loca- tion is the same as the approved speed, represented by the posted speed limit or by the unposted speed limit specified bay Section 166. However, this presumption can be overcome by the evidence, Thus, State law provides that it may be lawful to exce( d posted speed limit. lhe second question that has been raised agaInst the present speeding ordinances concerns who is to make the final decision about the City's posted speed limits -- the City Traffic Engineer or the City Council. Presently, the Traffic Engineer makes these decisions. However, Se.ctjon 166 , mentioned above, con- tains a statement to the effect t1mt Me City can adopt a posted speed limit as authorized in" Section 16% In Section 169, the City Council is given the same authority in establishing posted speed Mits on My streets as the State Highway Commission has in Us jurisdicCion. The authority of the State Highway Commission is eat forth in Section 167. According to that section, tine State Highway Commission must determine the posted speed limit zones after considering the results of an engineering and traffic Investigation. A signi- fica'at phrase in Section 167 requirem that the decision entablishing the posted speed limit must be entered in the minutes of the Commission. Thus, the contention has been made that the City Council Uself must establish the posted speed zones, recording its decisioa in the minutes of the meeting. DATE REFERENCE SUBJECT Ordinance Providing for the PAGE NUMBER Regulation of the Speed of Vehicles on 2 18 10/1/73 G-2270 Public Roadways Within the City Finally, Section 26-63 of the present City Code has been criticized because it does not identify the type of object which must not exceed the speed limits. Thus, according to this view, the section is defective because it could apply to airplanes or trains or horses, for example, as well as motor vehicles. The following is an outline of the proposed ordinance: I. CAPTION II. WHEREAS CLAUSES A. CITE AUTHORITY B. STATE THAT REQUIRED "ENGINEERING AND TRAFFIC INVESTIGA- TION" WAS HADE III. THE ORDINANCE ITSELF Section 1. Amends Section 26-1 of the City Code by generally using the same definitions as State statute, and by adding certain definitions including freeway, frontage road, and prima facie. Section 2 . Amends Section 26-3 of the City Code by restating the authority of the city traffic engineer, expanding his authority, from being able to set up "signs and markers" to being able to set up the broadly-defined "official traffic-control devices (including speed limit signs)" ; restates authorizations found elsewhere in Chapter 26. Section 3, Repeals City Code, Sections 26-10 and 26-29 since those sections are made a part of Section 26-3 by this ordinance and the number- ing system in Chapter 26 does not lend itself to convenient expansion. Section 4. Prohibits unlawful disregard of official traffic-control devices, by restating Section 32 of Article 6701d, Revised Civil Statutes. Section 5, Repeals City Code Section 26-58 (which this ordinance incorporates within Section 26-1) , and Sections 26-61, 26-62, and 26-63. Section 6. Creates a new Section 26-58, establishing a legal presumption that traff.i.c-control devices, including speed limit signs, were DATE REFERENCE SUBJECIp Ordii��ance �Providia.',, for the PAGE ttuMa2 Public ulatio of the eed of Vehicles on 3 l8 10/1/73 S-2270 a. ._. of __.. r fizz the City posted or placed by governmental authority, expanding a similar presumption that the ordinance omits from Section 26-3. Section 7. Paragraph (a) ?rohibits speeds faster than reasonable and prudent Paragraph (b) Prohibits speeds slower than reasonable and prudent Paragraph (c) Legalizes any speed which does not violate the legal presumption of what is reasonable and prudent; pre- sumes that all other speeds are unlawful; provided that (1) special hazards require slower speeds , and (2) speed zones established by the City must be posted with conspicuous signs aragrap'h (d) Presumes that the fastest reasonable and prudent speed in an unposted urban district is thirty (30) MPH Paragraph (e) Establishes the legal presumption of which speeds are reasonable and prudent in parks Paragraph (f) Establishes the legal presumption of which speeds are reasonable and prudent in school zones Paragraph (g) Establishes the legal presumption of which speeds are reasonable and prudent on named roadways Section 8. Repeals Sections 26-72 and 26-124, since these sections of the City Code are incorporated into Section 26-1 by this ordinance.; repeals Sections 26-78 and 26-79, since these sections are incorporated into Section 26-3 by this ordinances (thus alleviating somewhat the problem of future expansion of Chapter 26) DATE REFERENCE SUBJECT:� �)rdinance Providing for the ?AGE NUMBER 10/1/73 G-2270 Regulation of the Speed of vehicles on 4 18 Public Roadways Tlithin the City - of Section 9.

Section 26-3 The next-to-the-last paragraph of the present Section DATE REFERENCE SUBJECT: Ordinance Providing for t_he � PAGE NUMBER Regulation of the Speed of Vehicles on 1 13 18 107/1/73 G-2270 of { Putrlic Roadways Within the City 26-3 contains a provision to the effect that all offi - cial traffic-control devices within the city are pre- sumed to have been lawfully placed there by the city traffic engineer. However, on some streets such as the freeways the city traffic engineer does not have final authority. To take care of this situation, this paragraph has been omitted from Section 26-3 and rewritten as new Section 26-58, Likewise, the :,Last paragraph of present Section 26-3 has been .rewritten (as Section 26- 30) , to make it un- lawful to disobey any official traffic-control device, whether or not the device was situated by the city traffic engineer or a State official. The rest of present Section 26-3 has been left basically unchanged, with three exceptions. First, the broadly-defined term, "official traffic- control device" replac.,,!es all terms included within its definition, whenever possible. Second, the sentences which begin with a phrase such as "The city traffic engineer shall also have power and he is hereby author:d_zed ***" have been consolidated into one sentence. Third, the powers given to the city traffic engineer in Chapter 26 have been placed together in Section 26-3, This proposed ordinance assigns a number in parentheses to each power that presently appears outside Section 26-3 , as well as to certain powers now in Section 26-3, The following chart indicates the source of each power, identified by the numbest in parentheses ; Number in :Parentheses Source: Section No, (l.) 26-3 (2) 26-3 and 26-10 (3) 26-3 (4) 2.6-3 (5) 2:6-3 ( ) 26-3 (7) 26-29 . .
