In 1978 the Town of Vail adopted the Model Traffic Code, 1977 edition for the regulation of traffic within the Town of Vail. That Model Traffic Code was revised by the Colorado Department of Transportation in 1995. The Model Traffic Code intends to promote uniformity between the state's traffic laws and municipal traffic codes. The model traffic code establishes speed limits for both residential and commercial streets and roads. The model traffic code establishes speed limits of 25 mph in any business district and 30 mph in any residence district. In order to change the Town's speed limits from what the code establishes, it has been necessary to do site specific speed studies. The Town of Vail has conducted these studies and the results are reflected in Exhibit A, which is attached to the ordinance. Exhibit A recommends specific speed limits in our residential and business area. Slifer moved to approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 11, Series 2000. Ogilby seconded.
