speaking he was not sure what it adds to what is already in place, a speed limit is what <br />it is. <br /> <br />Mr. Price said that what concerns him is that where schools are, that is a no tolerance <br />area. Mr. Price asked the City Attorney to review this bill before its final readings. <br /> <br />Mayor Welsch asked Mr. Walker to provide more background about how this bill <br />developed. <br /> <br />Mr. Glickert stated we have unique situations because there are unique scenarios in <br />different neighborhoods. Ne noted that next to Pershing School there are signs “Drug <br />Free Zone” but we have drug houses across the street from the signs on Bartmer. The <br />bill is trying to present a heighten awareness of people driving through the area and <br />those who live within the confines. This bill addresses a unique situation on Carleton <br />Ave in the Musick neighborhood where they wanted to have a heightened awareness <br />that because of the unique structure of the streets. There were vehicles zooming <br />through in its perpendicular in that area. <br /> <br />Mr. Walker said he would come back with more information. He noted that with the <br />signs people driving through the neighborhood, police will have less discretion than <br />they may have in other areas but the posting of the signs needs some clarification. <br /> <br />Ms. Ricci asked if this should be a resolution rather than an ordinance as there is <br />already an ordinance in place addressing speed limits and its enforcement. <br /> <br />Mr. Walker deferred to the City Attorney for more background information Mr. Mulligan <br />stated that it depends on what the objective of the Council is. If it is to let the police <br />department know this is in an area of considerable concern that can be done by a <br />resolution or a comment to the City Manager. If it is to increase the penalties or some <br />other type of deterrent action, this can be legislated by lowering the speed limit, a <br />mandatory minimum fine, etc. <br /> <br />Introduced by Mr. Price <br />3. <br />BILL 9102 – An ordinance amending Chapter 10.20 of the University City Municipal <br />Code, relating to speed limits, by enacting therein a new section to be known as <br />“Section 10.20.100 no tolerance zone – speed limit strict enforcement”, containing a <br />saving clause and providing a penalty <br /> <br />Introduced by Mr. Sharpe, Jr. <br />4. <br />BILL 9103 – An ordinance amending Chapter 10.36 of the University City Municipal <br />Code, relating to regulations for specific streets, by repealing Section 10.36.030 thereof, <br />relating to one-way streets designated, and enacting in lieu thereof a new section to be <br />known as “Section 10.36.030 one-way streets designated,” thereby amending said <br />section so as to remove Northmoor Drive from Big Bend Boulevard to the western edge <br />of Northmoor Park from the one-way street designation; containing a saving clause and <br />providing a penalty <br /> <br />Mr. Kraft asked if this was not already done. <br /> <br /> <br /> 8 <br /> <br />
