Your County Government: How to Change or Establish a Speed Limit Change 

One of the most common requests county commissioners get is to establish or change speed limits throughout the county. In Lawrence County, if a speed limitis not "posted" on a county road, then by statue the speed limit is 55 mph. Knowing that, 55 mph may be too fast for many of our more rural (dangerous terrain) or residential (children at play, congested, etc.) roads, thus the need for lowering the speed limit.

If you ever want to request a speed limit change within the county, it is important to understand the process that must take place for it to happen. The process is outlined below:

1) Go to http://lawrencecountytn.gov/Meetings/speedlimit and print off the speed limit petition form.

2) Fill out all the information including the road name as well as the requested speed limit

3) Have every citizenwho owns real property on the roadin question sign the petition if they are in favor of changing the speed limit. (Per resolution, in order for the county commission to consider the requested change, over 50% of the property owners on the road must be in favor of the change)

4) If over 50% of the property owners on the road support the change and sign the petition, forward the petition to your district's county commissioner.

5) Your county commissioner will then present the petition to the Highway Committee for approval and sponsorship. If approved by the committee, the proposal will then be submitted to the full board of county commissioners for consideration. If the proposal is approved there, the change is final and the county highway department will erect signs reflecting the established speed limit.

As always, if you ever have any questions or concerns related to county business, do not hesitate to contact your county commissioner (http://lawrencecountytn.gov/commissioners-2014). We always love hearing from you!

Chris D. Jackson
Chairman Pro-Tempore, Lawrence County Commission
