Speaker 1: Item 17 Report from Public Works. Recommendation to request the City Attorney to prepare an amendment to the Long Beach Municipal Code relating to speed limits on city streets, as recommended by the city traffic engineer District six and nine.
Speaker 8: Thank you, sir. A staff report.
Speaker 7: Public Works Director.
Speaker 4: AAM Alan Honorable Vice Chairman council members. I have a 40 minute PowerPoint presentation, but I would not do that sorry. The item before you was released for the city attorney to prepare an amendment to the Long Beach Municipal Code sections 10.2 12.010 and ten point 12.0 20 relating to the 35 mile per hour speed limit on Obispo Avenue and 30 mile per hour speed limit on Pine Avenue based upon the results of citywide engineering and traffic survey. Two street segments warrant a five mile per hour decrease of their existing speed limits. First location is the segment of Obispo Avenue between Harding Street and South Street, which warrants a five mile per hour decrease from its current posted speed limit of 35 miles to 30 miles per hour. And the second location, a segment of Pine Avenue between Willow Street and Pacific Coast Highway, which also warrants a five mile per hour decrease from its current posted speed limit of 30 miles to 25 miles per hour. That concludes my report. If you have any questions, I'll be glad to answer them.
Speaker 8: Thank you, Mr. Malloy and Councilmember Richardson.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Vice Mayor. I'm pleased with the results of this study. It's going to lower the speed with all of this by avenue between Harding and South Obispo runs along to to residential neighborhoods known as the Saint Francis neighborhood in the Ramona Park neighborhood. It's been really important to them to improve that street. So they've had stop signs installed and now they're limiting. We're dropping the speed. So anytime we can increase safety in the community is a good thing and it's a win. So thank you to our public works department because this is a step in the right direction. Thank you.
Speaker 8: Councilman. Thank you. Any member of the public that wishes to address the Council on item 17 see none. Members cast your vote.
