Kansas HB2220 amends traffic regulations to allow local authorities with jurisdiction over city residence districts to reduce the maximum speed limit from 30 mph to 25 mph without needing an engineering and traffic investigation. This change applies to districts where the speed limit was already below 30 mph before the act's effective date. The bill also repeals the previous section that required such investigations for speed limit changes.
