Dear Mayor Cohen:
Attached is a Resolution requesting the Corrxnissioner of Highways to
review the proper speed limit on Maryland Ave, from Western Ave, to
E. Como Btvd, and on Upper Afton Road from White Bear Ave, to McKnight
Road. Both of these streets are presently posted for 35 MPH. We feel
that the western end of Maryland Ave. should be reduced to 30 MPH to
be consistent with the rest of Maryland Ave. On Upper Afton Road,
considerable devetopment has occurred since the speed limit was raised
from 30 to 35 MPH, including housing and an adjacent school and playground.
Very truly yours,
(�ds'!��-t.wC • ����K- ��
