the passage of an ordinance, which shall be effective when appropriate signs giving
notice thereof are erected along that part of the street or highway;
WHEREAS, Pursuant to Texas Transportation Code Section 545.356, a traffic
and engineering investigation has been submitted to the Board of Alderman showing that
the existing prima facie speed limits on parts of Highway 114 within the Town of
