BEARDSLEY, Director of Public Work f SUBJECT: ADOPT CITY WIDE SPEED LIMIT ORDINANCE ,, /t/,-- ✓/-/�� [Statement of Issue, Funding Source,Recommended Action,Alternative Action(s),Analysis,Environmental Status,Attachment(s) Statement of Issue: The adoption of a new ordinance is required to amend the speed limits on certain streets and to make other corrections as needed. Funding Source: Funds are available in the Traffic Maintenance Program to change posted speed limits as necessary. Recommended Action: Motion to adopt Ordinance Number 3 amending Chapter 10.12 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. Alternative Action(s): 1. Do not approve the ordinance. 2. Suggest alternative speed limits. This action will disallow the use of radar for speed enforcement on the effected street segments. 3. Receive and file this document. Analysis: Traffic and engineering surveys were performed on certain streets, as required by the California Vehicle Code, and the results of those surveys are indicated in the attached Legislative Draft. A legislative draft indicates additions to the ordinance by bold face type two points larger and deletions to the ordinance by #. In some cases street segments are shown as being removed from the ordinance. These street segments are included in the preceding segment and have the same speed limit. Citywide Speed Limit Ordinance -2- 11/05/99 11:14 AM 6—I REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTIGiv MEETING DATE: November 15, 1999 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PW 99-117 Traffic and engineering surveys must be completed every five years to allow the use of radar for traffic speed enforcement. Failure to update the surveys invalidates radar-enforced speeding citations and forces the police to pace the violator to enforce speed limits. Pacing is considered an impractical enforcement method for logistical reasons. The recommended action on Newland Street speed limit responds to the City Council's request made at its July 19, 1999 meeting. The attached Public Works Commission report provides information regarding the history of the Newland Street speed limit. On Edwards Street, the recommended action applies a constant limit of 40 mph to the entire length of the street. This action follows the City Council motion on September 7, 1999, that established a temporary 40 mph limit. The Police and Public Works Departments agree on this more permanent solution. The limits on Orange Avenue were reduced as the result of a request for additional traffic controls between 19' and 21st Streets. Traffic studies do not warrant control devices, but the speed limit between 17th and Goldenwest Street is reduced from 40 mph to 30 mph. Public Works Commission Review: The Commission reviewed and recommended approval of the lowered speed limits on 9/15/99 by a 7-0 vote as follows: Current Proposed Street Limits MPH MPH Newland Street Adams Avenue to Warner Avenue 50 45 Orange Avenue 171h Street to Goldenwest Street 40 30 Edwards Street City Limit to Garfield Avenue 40-50 40 Environmental Status: Not applicable.

Beardsley, P.E., Director of Public Works PREPARED BY: Tom Brohard, P.E., Acting Transportation Manager SUBJECT: Recommended Revisions to Posted Speed Limits on Newland Street DATE: September 15, 1999 Statement of Issue: Staff has identified the need to revise speed limits on Newland Street to address inconsistencies in the posted speed limit between the Cities of Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley and provide a more uniform speed limit posting between Adams Avenue and Warner Avenue. Funding Source: Funds are available in the Department's operating budget for these modifications. Recommended Action: Motion to concur with staff s recommendation to revise the posted speed limits along Newland Street and recommend that the City Council take appropriate actions to implement the speed limit changes. The recommended changes include: 1) Consolidate six existing speed zone segments between Adams Avenue and Warner Avenue into the following three segments: o Adams Avenue to Garfield Avenue o Garfield Avenue to Talbert Avenue o Talbert Avenue to Warner Avenue 2) Revise the posted speed limit on Newland Street between Adams Avenue and Garfield Avenue to 45 miles per hour (existing posted speed limit 45 mph-Adams to Yorktown, 50 mph-Yorktown to Garfield) 3) Revise the posted speed limit on Newland Street between Garfield Avenue and Talbert Avenue to 45 miles per hour (existing posted speed limit— 50 mph southbound, 45 mph northbound) 4) Revise the posted speed limit on Newland Sreet between Talbert Avenue and Warner Avenue to 45 miles per hour (existing posted speed limit 45 mph - Warner to Slater southbound, 50 mph - Slater to Talbert southbound, 45 mph Warner to Talbert northbound). 0 0 Alternative Action(s): Motion to leave existing conditions in place and suggest an alternative course of action. f - History: The following provides a history of the posted speed limits on Newland Street in the area between Adams Avenue and Warner Avenue: Date Speed Zone 1974 40 miles per hour July 1992 45 mil;es per hour March 1998 50 miles per hour Analysis: City Staff has performed the three required elements used to establish posted speed limits in accordance with procedures adopted by the State of California. The three elements used to establish speed limits are: 1. Sample existing travel speeds at a representative location within the roadway segment. 2. Review the street segment to identify roadway characteristics and conditions that may not be readily apparent to motorists. 3. Review accident history. The review of existing travel speeds is used to establish a baseline speed limit for a roadway segment. Roadways which do not contain conditions which may not be readily apparent to motorists and affect the safe operating speed for the street, and do not have an accident history that may be indicative of these types of conditions, generally have a posted speed limit based on the 85`h percentile speed or prevailing speed of traffic. When conditions warrant, the State of California procedures for establishing posted speed limits allow for posted speed limits to be reduced 5 miles per hour. Applying this reduction requires engineering evaluation and documentation of conditions to demonstrate the need for the lowered speed limit. The following table summarizes the important information obtained for each segment. `"' � ,-3- �,,, ter, �tewlandyStreetSegment� _° �IlendlfTOn � Adams�Garfiel`d w Garfzei /Talbert r TalbertlWarnei -.-', Y z-�•4xss it z^^M^ss, a.�eras- tfi�a.,J 85 Rercentile �R 51 mph 50 mph 49 mph Speed Segment Length 1 mile 1 mile 1 mile Accident Rate 2.04 1.24 3.15 (acc/mil-veh miles) (acc/mil-veh miles) (acc/mil-veh miles) Existing Speed 45 & 50 mph 50 SB, 45 NB 50 SB, 45 NB Limit 0 0 ew'andSire� gment ' nd1 `on ams 1S eW , Ciarf e1'751l e Ta1b Aarne_ o Multiple o Multiple o Multiple midsegment midsegment midsegment Conditions Not uncontrolled uncontrolled uncontrolled Readily Apparent intersections with intersections with intersections with to Motorists residential access. residential and residential and o No turn lanes commercial access commercial Garfield to o On-street parallel access. Yorktown parking on the o Roadway o On-street parking west side of narrowing Garfield to Newland southbound near Yorktown Slater Avenue Staff has identified several characteristics along each of the roadway segments which may not be apparent to motorists and that would also make a speed limit posting near the 85`h percentile speed undesirable under most conditions. The conclusions regarding these conditions are supported by the calculated 3 year accident rate for the segment between Warner Avenue and Talbert Avenue which is 3.15 accidents per million vehicle miles traveled. Comparing this rate to statewide average rates for similar roadways of 2.48 accidents per million vehicle miles traveled reveals that this segment is substantially higher than the statewide average. The baseline speed limits for the segment between Adams Avenue and Garfield Avenue, and Garfield Avenue and Talbert Avenue are 50 miles per hour (the next five mile per hour increment at or below the 85`h percentile speed). The baseline speed limit for the segment between Talbert Avenue and Warner Avenue is 45 miles per hour. A portion of the roadway in both of these segments is in the City of Fountain Valley and is within their jurisdiction. The northbound lanes (within the City of Fountain Valley) are currently posted at 45 miles per hour. Staff believes that the roadway conditions, combined with the need to maintain consistency in speed limit posting with the City of Fountain Valley, provide sufficient justification for reducing the posted speed limit an additional 5 miles per hour from the baseline speed limit between Garfield Avenue and Talbert Avenue. The characteristics noted for the segment between Adams Avenue and Garfield Avenue create a condition where travelling at speeds near the 85`h percentile speed do not provide sufficient opportunity for motorists to react to situations which could arise. Thus, the reduction of the posted speed limit an additional 5 miles per hour from the baseline speed limit will provide additional reaction time to motorists. Therefore, the recommended posted speed limit for these three segments is 45 mile per hour. Attachments: 1. Vicinity Map 2.

Motion approved 7-0. d. Orange Avenue and 22nd Street—Traffic Control —Tom Brohard gave presentation and explained that in November 1997, concerned residents requested consideration of reduction of the posted speed limit on Orange Avenue between 17th Street and Goldenwest Street as well as the installation of stop signs on Orange Avenue at 22nd Street. It was also requested to have additional enforcement to deter speeding on Orange Avenue. A motion by Commissioner Hartge and seconded by Commissioner Smith to 1) deny the request to install a four-way stop at Orange Avenue and 22nd Street, one block east of Goldenwest Street, 2) recommend that the City Council consider reduction of the posted speed limit to 30 miles per hour on Orange Avenue from 17th Street to Goldenwest Street, and 3) to study other intersections along this portion of Orange Avenue to determine if stop signs should be installed and report back to the Commission. Motion approved 7-0. e. Recommended Revisions to Posted Speed Limits on Newland Street—Tom Brohard gave presentation. He explained that there is a need to revise speed limits on Newland Street to address the inconsistencies in the posted speed limit between the cities of Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley and provide a more uniform speed limit of 45 miles per hour between Adams Avenue and Warner Avenue. A motion by Commissioner Smith and seconded by Vice-Chair Gartland to recommend to the City Council to 1) consolidate six existing speed zone segments between Adams Avenue and Warner Avenue into three segments: Adams Avenue to Garfield Avenue, Garfield Avenue to Talbert Avenue, and Talbert Avenue to Warner Avenue, 2) revise the posted speed limit on Newland Street between Adams Avenue and Garfield Avenue to 45 miles per hour (existing posted speed limit 45 mph —Adams to Yorktown, 50 mph —Yorktown to Garfield, 3) revise the posted speed limit on Newland Street between Garfield Avenue and Talbert Avenue to 45 miles per hour (existing posted speed limit— 50 mph southbound, 45 mph northbound), and 4) revise the posted speed limit on Newland Street between Talbert Avenue and Warner Avenue to 45 miles per hour (existing posted speed limit 45 mph —Warner to Slater southbound, 50 mph — Slater to Talbert southbound, 45 mph Warner to Talbert northbound.
