Speed Limit
The Director of Public Works presented a recommendation by
East 19th Street
the Traffice Commission for establishment of a realistic
enforceable speed limit of.35 miles per hour on East 19th
Street between Newport Boulevard and Irvine; the existing
speed -limit is 30 miles per hour. The Clerk read a letter
protesting the change from Howard P. Shelton and a letter
also protesting the change from Patricia Lee Kennedy,
Councilman Jordan requested information as to why the
increase was requested. The,Traffi.c Engineer stated that
the problem was -that the present speed limit of 30 miles
per hour was not being adhered to by 50 percent of the
drivers using the street and they were technically speeding.
The 35 mile per hour limit would be increasing the limit
to the speed which 85 percent of the drivers were adhering
to. Enforcement of 35 miles per hour would be easier to
enforce and more realistic in the opinion of the Traffic "
Commission. Councilman Pinkley stated that the street Vas
narrow and with the full stops he felt 30 miles per hour was
Held Over
fast enough. Councilman Hammett suggested that the matter
To Study Session

that the Public Works Department be scheduled for the next

by Councilman St. Clair, and carried, the matter was held

matters will be studied thoroughly.
