Ord. 98-42 <br /> <br /> A 45 mile-per-hour speed limit was authorized along Route 132, Pohoiki Junction to Route 137 in May <br /> 1998. A location map is attached. <br /> <br /> We have since received a request to raise the existing speed limit to 55 miles per hour. We have <br /> consulted with the Puna Police Department, and they feel 55 miles per hour is reasonable and prudent for <br /> this roadway under normal conditions. <br /> <br /> We ask for your review and consideration for adoption of the subject amendment, Should you have any <br /> questions, please contact Richard Nishimura, Traffic Division Chief at 961-8341. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> JIR QA SU ADA APPROVED: <br /> Dephie Engineer <br /> <br /> EPHEN K MASHIRO <br /> RHN/EU Mayor <br /> <br /> Attachment <br /> <br /> cc: PRE <br /> Chief of Police Cioav& Nc <br /> F1le No. R F <br /> Rd.
