This item provides a Vision Zero update and presents the findings of the Speed Management Plan so that Council may make appropriate findings to determine and declare updated posted speed limits on City streets. 

This action formally establishes the proposed speed limits listed in the attached Tables 1-7, and Attachment S, City of San Diego Posted Speed Limit Locations, and enables their implementation and enforcement Citywide.

This item would approve a resolution to establish speed limits by the authority granted by the California Vehicle Code for the streets and limits specified in Attachment S.

Item 202 - Appeal of the Environmental Determination for 710 Garnet Avenue Streetary Project No. PRJ-1126697

The site is zoned CV-1-2 (Commercial Visitor) and designated Visitor Commercial within the Pacific Beach Community Plan and Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan.
