Chapter 20 of the Code of Ordinances, Section 20.05.103, establishes the locations of school zone reduced speed limits. Staff recommends amending this section of the ordinance to remove two (2) school zones at the following locations:
1) Guadalupe Elementary, 101 North Avenue P
Line Item 22: Remove 20 mph school zone on Avenue P, north and south of 1st Street
2) Jackson Elementary, 201 Vernon Avenue
Line Item 26: Remove 20 mph school zone on Avenue U, north and south of 2nd Street
Lubbock Independent School District has completed construction of the new Carmona-Harrison Elementary School located at 1910 Cesar E. Chavez Drive, consolidating three elementary schools: Guadalupe, Jackson and Wright. Thus, the school zones recommended for removal are no longer necessary. |
