BOARDMAN COMMISSIONER Honorable Jean W. Cochran Supervisor-Town of Southold Town Hall, 53095 Main Road P.O. Box 1179 Southold, New York 119'71 Speed Limit Reduction Request Leslie Road Town of Southold Our Case Nos. 999211TC and 989602TC Dear Ms. Cochran: We have completed our investigation to determine ifa reduction in speed limit would improve safety and traffic operations on Leslie Road in Cutchogue. Our investigation included an evaluation of roadside development and field observations of the area. Based on the results of our study, we feel reducing the speed limit to 30 MPH is appropriate for this roadway. Although we establish speed limits within the Town of Southold, the Town is responsible for the installation and maintenance of the signs posting these speed limits along Town highways. Attached are copies of the ordinance concerning the new regulations. Thank you for your interest in this traffic safety matter. Very truly yours, Origlr~l q~n~d By TH0.~I~S F flE!.ER!P, HI THOMAS F.
