A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, REPEALING
RESOLUTION NO 4826 REGARDING REDUCTION
OF SPEEDS ON ARTERIAL STREET ROUTES IN
THE CITY
WHEREAS, the City of Auburn has been involved in numerous efforts to
preserve its streets and provide for safe travel along them; and
WHEREAS, among the factors that impact street surfaces and contribute
to the safe use of streets are speed limits; and
WHEREAS, the City Council endeavored to employ a program of reducing
speed limits on certain arterial street routes within the City, in an effort to
preserve City streets and provide for traffic safety, and did so through Resolution
No. 4826, passed by the City Council on June 4, 2012; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that the effect of reducing speed
limits along certain arterial streets within the City did not accomplish the level of
street preservation desired, nor did it significantly add to traffic safety; and
WHEREAS, it is therefore appropriate to endeavor to reach these goals
through other alternatives including conventional engineering strategies.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN,
HEREBY RESOLVES as follows:
Section 1. That Resolution No. 4826, adopted on June 4, 2012, is
hereby repealed
