Article III — PUBLIC SAFETY

PRIMA FACIE SPEED LIMITS INCREASED

3221. • SPEED LIMITS INCREASED.

The City Council may determine by resolution, from time to time, that on the basis of an engineering and traffic survey, a speed greater than that permitted by State law would facilitate the orderly movement of vehicular traffic and would be reasonable and safe upon certain streets. The prima facie speed limit on those streets may be increased by resolution of the City Council, and shall be effective when appropriate signs giving notice thereof are erected upon the street. Such prima facie speed limits shall not thereafter be revised except upon the basis of an engineering and traffic survey.
