CH 14 (Ordinance being presented for first reading consideration) - An Ordinance of the City of Tampa, Florida, amending City of Tampa Code of Ordinances Chapter 14, Section 14-56(f) Designation of School Zones; by striking and adding site location for installation and operation of school zone speed enforcement cameras within the City; and providing an effective date.
Background Details
Florida Statute Section 316.008(9)(c) provides that a municipality must enact an ordinance in order to authorize the placement or installation of a speed detection system on a roadway maintained as a school zone and as part of the public hearing, the municipality must consider traffic data or other evidence supporting the installation and operation of each proposed school speed detection system, and the municipality must determine that the school zone where a speed detection system is to be placed or installed constitutes a heightened safety risk that warrants additional enforcement measures. The 2022 Safe Routes to School (SRTS) study was based on older data and served as the basis for the first schools site locations in the 2024 Ordinance. This study used a transportation-safety approach focused on infrastructure, pedestrian activity, circulation, crossing safety, and broader multimodal concerns. When the RedSpeed contract was approved this year, it included speed studies at no cost to the City. TPD identified schools zones with flashing beacons throughout the City and RedSpeed conducted speed studies as 31 school zones located at 29 schools. These studies showed a serious speeding problem at 18 of these school zones which averaged between 200 to 3,000 speeding violations a day over 11 mph. 6 of these 18 were included in the original site locations. This amendment to the ordinance identifies 18 school zones in the City of Tampa that constitute a heightened safety risk that warrants additional safety measures.Supporting Documents:
