body
DESCRIPTION
The Roads & Drainage Division received a request from a representative of the Enclave at Lake Myrtle Homeowners Association to post speed limits within the subdivision. In researching the request, the Roads & Drainage Division discovered that Resolutions establishing speed limits for Louise Avenue, Mezzavalle Way and Tropea Lane could not be located and may not exist. The Enclave at Lake Myrtle is located in the Auburndale area in S-33, T-27S, R-25E, and its roads are classified as Local Residential.
Staff conducted traffic studies within the Enclave at Lake Myrtle subdivision as outlined in FS 316.189, and investigated the five-year crash history. Based on the research, it was determined that postings of 25 M.P.H. are reasonable for these roads. To comply with statutory requirements, it is necessary for the Board to adopt a Resolution establishing the proposed speed limits.
RECOMMENDATION
Request Board adopt the associated Resolution to establish the proposed speed zones for Louise Avenue, Mezzavalle Way and Tropea Lane. Cost for installation of signs is estimated at $901.21.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding is budgeted in the FY 22/23 Transportation Millage Fund.
