What should the residential speed limit be in Lakewood?

The April 1, 2024, Lakewood City Council study session discussed the possibility of changing the default residential speed limit in Lakewood from the current 30 miles per hour. This arose after a Lakewood Advisory Commission study recommended changing the residential speed limit to 20 mph.
