RE: REGULATION OF SPEED ON NORTH - SOUTH COUNTRY ROAD
NO. 43, BETWEEN EAST - WEST COUNTY ROADS NUMBERS
62 and 64 IN WELD COUNTY, COLORADO
WHEREAS, a multitude of complaints have been made to the Board
of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, that motor vehicles
habitually are being driven at speeds greater than is reasonable and pru-
dent along that part of said highway, being in Weld County, and known as
County Road No. 43, running north - south between County Road No. 62
and County Road No. 64, and all intersections of streets and roads there-
with, and
WHEREAS, said Board is authorized by the statutes of the State of
Colorado to regulate the speed of vehicles, and
WHEREAS, said Board pursuant to such complaints, has determined
upon the basis of engineering, traffic investigations and a special speed
survey, that any speed in excess of 35 miles per hour, along or over said
portion or portions of said roads or highways, and at all intersections of
other roads therewith is excessive and is greater than is reasonable, safe
or prudent under the conditions which exist.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Board of County
Commissioners, Weld County, Colorado, that no motor vehicle shall be
driven on, over or along any portion or portions of said roads or high-
ways, or at or across, or at the entrance to, any intersection of any other
street, road or highway therewith, at a speed in excess of 35 miles per
hour, and that any speed in excess of 35 miles per hour, and the driving
of any vehicles at any speed in excess of said limit of 35 miles per hour
thereon or thereat shall be prima facie evidence that said speed is not
reasonable, safe or prudent and that it is unlawful.
The above and foregoing Resolution was, on motion duly made and
seconded, adopted by the following vote on the 8th day of August, A. D. ,
