IRWINDALE AMENDING THE IRWINDALE MUNICIPAL CODE
BY ADDING THERETO SECTION 3183, WHICH SAID
SECTION RELATES TO SPEED UPON PRIVATE STREETS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE DOES ORDAIN AS FOL -
LOWS:
SECTION 1. The Irwindale Municipal Code hereby is amended
by adding thereto Section 3183 to read as follows:
.- 3183. Speed on Private Streets. No person shall drive a
motor vehicle upon any privately owned street, road, or
vehicle easement serving or providing vehicle access to
three or more separately owned parcels of real property
at a speed greater than 15 miles per hour.
As used in this section, the phrase "separately owned
parcels of real property" includes any separate parcels,
whether a separate parcel in a recorded subdivision or
by reason of a metes and bounds description.
SECTION 2. This ordinance is declared to be an urgency
ordinance necessary for the protection of the public, peace, health,
safety, and welfare, and shall take effect immediately upon its
adoption. The reasons for the urgency are:
There are many private streets within the City of Irwindale
serving as the main access to residences and business, such
streets having all the characteristics of public streets ex-
cept the want of dedication as such. Present laws do not regu-
late speed on such private streets, thus creating a hazardous
condition insofar as the residents of the City and users of
such streets are concerned.
SECTION 3. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage
of this ordinance and cause the same to be posted in the manner
required by law.
APPROVED AND PASSED this S day of —
