9 SECTION THREE
10
Upon approval by a 4/5 vote of the City Council, this Ordinance shall be adopted
11 and become effective immediately as an urgency measure. The urgency arises from the
immediate necessity to preserve the public peace, health, and safety. The specific facts
12 constituting the urgency are as follows:
13
These amendments to Ukiah City Code Section 7071 implement a recently
14 completed traffic and engineering survey as required by California
15 Vehicle Code Section 40802, establishing the safe speed for the studied
streets. Before these safe speeds may be enforced on the designated
16 streets, new speed limit signs must be erected. It will compromise public
safety, if the City must wait for the approximately 6-8 weeks required for an
17 ordinance not adopted as an urgency measure to become effective.
