He cited the average speed of automobiles. He recommended that Council adopt the alternate action as proposed by staff and that a larger study be done. 110 Page 2 - Council/Agency Minutes - 1/19/93 Ian Collins, Sowers Middle School Principal representing Dr. Duane Dishno, Huntington Beach City School Board, requested that Council stand by their previous actions and leave the speed limits on Brookhurst and Bushard Streets at 45 mph, because their previous decision was based on reasonable and safe action; that motorists drive five to ten miles above the speed limit Increasing the possibility of student accidents. He requested that on behalf of the City School District and the 1100 students attending Sowers, that Council honor their previous reasonable and safe actions and to honor the Council -agreed upon flashing yellow lights and the use of mobile police display boards. He stated the Traffic and Engineering Department had responded to safety and placement of pedestrian crosswalks and that he appreciated the cooperation of the city. Togger Horagk stated he did not believe that the Brookhurst speed limit should be the same as the freeway and that additional police code enforcement was needed; He stated that in the 20 years he had lived at the south end of Bushard he could not remeber a policeman at the side of the road ticketing or radar used more 'than once or twice. He urged Council to approve a 40 mph speed limit on Bushard and Brookhurst. He stated it was said that a "25 mph School Children Present" sign could not be placed on Bushard for Sowers School because it was not on Bushard but was 1/10 mile from Bushard, but that sign is used for Moiola School in Fountain Valley which is 4/10 mile from Bushard. He stated that the Attorney survey showed the highest accident rate is from Indianapolis to Atlanta where the crosswalk is at Sowers School.

CA rolyn Fizer stated she lives between Bushard and Brookhurst, south of Adams, and that she was in support of a low speed limit. She stated that the survey conducted 11/12/92 during non -peak hours already stated that the traffic is too fast. She urged Council to approve the alternate action citing unsupervised crossing at Bushard, that as these two streets are surrounded by residences a lower speed is a necessity not an engineering judgment. Perhaps the low accident rate is because of low speed postings. Georg_ Arnold stated that people were traveling 65--70 mph on Newland and that he believed the speed limits in Huntington Beach was too high. He stated he believed the State Vehicle Code stating "drive at a safe speed" provides the means for a lower speed posting in such areas of concern.
