James Burgess for Ashburn City Council

Sec. 82-61Authority to adopt

Last changed 1996
Plain English: what this chapter covers

This chapter covers the everyday rules of the road in Ashburn. It adopts Georgia's Uniform Rules of the Road, sets speed zones, keeps big commercial trucks off residential streets except to make deliveries, and controls junk cars stored outside. It also lets residents drive golf carts ("motorized carts") on most city streets, and it sets up school-zone speed cameras along with how those tickets and appeals work.

Pursuant to § 40-6-183, concerning local authorities' power to alter lawful speed limits, this article, regulating speed limits within the city, is adopted. The speed zones in section 82-62 are established based on an engineering and traffic investigation.
