Resolution 039-1982
RESOLUTION NO. 39 - 1982
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF
MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA DIRECTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA RELATIVE TO
POSTED SPEED LIMITS ON U.S. HIGHWAY NO. 1 ON BIG
COPPITT KEY.
WHEREAS, it has come to pass that traffic on Big Coppitt Key
along U.S. Highway No. 1 has become much more congested in the
past few months, and
WHEREAS, the posted speed limit on Big Coppitt Key at the pre-
sent time on U.S. Highway No. 1 is 50 miles per hour, and because
of such congestion and traffic, the limit of 50 miles per hour appears
to be unrealistic, now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE
COUNTY, FLORIDA, that the posted speed limit of 50 miles per hour on
U.S. Highway No.1 on Big Coppitt Key, is unrealistic and it IS sug-
gested to the Department of Transportation that an appropriate speed
limit to be posted on Big Coppitt Key, Monroe County, Florida, be
40 miles per hour.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED BY SAID BOARD that the Clerk of said
Board is hereby directed to forward a certified copy of this re-
solution to the Department of Transportation of the State of Florida.
Passed and adopted by the Board of County Commissioners of
Monroe County, Florida, at a regular meeting of said Board held on
the 12th day of January, A.D. 1982.

OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA
