BACKGROUND: Horizons Parkway is posted at 35 mph to meet current city code Sec 320.030.
Transystems designed both phases of the street with a 45 mph speed limit. This
design meets the future capacity requirements of the Horizons Development.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends establishing an ordinance to allow for a 45 mph speed limit on
Horizons Parkway.
