DATE: January 29 , 1985
SUBJECT: Seasonal Weight Restrictions
Attached is a list of the recommended axle weight limit
restrictions for each city street. The streets will be posted
from March 15 through May 15, 1985 .
The normal length of time that restrictions are in effect is
related to weather conditions. Certain streets might be closed
to school buses if a street becomes impassable.
In the past several years, we have allowed solid waste haulers to
continue their normal operations, limiting them to gross weight
on any single axle of seven tons or 14 , 000 pounds. If a street
shows signs of breakup we will limit the solid waste haulers to
smaller vehicles.
I have drafted a resolution for the 1985 weight limits for
council approval .
