Speed Limits are set and adjusted by ordinance and updated in the appropriate <br /> section of Title 10.08 when action is taken. The County Road Log identifies individual <br /> road segments and information regarding the road such as speed limits and roadway <br /> width. Public Works performed an audit of information identified in Title 10 and the <br /> County Road Log. This process identified several updates which are needed to be <br /> consistent. This included adjustments due to annexations as well as including consistent <br /> information between ordinances and the road log. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> Public Works has identified several inconsistencies between Title 10.08 and the County <br /> Road Log. Exhibits 1, 2, and 3 list the inconsistencies which should be addressed within <br /> Title 10. <br />
