Actually, the designed speed for the Japanese 5,500 ton light cruisers was 36 knots
I remembered that the designed speed for the Nagara and similar ships was 36 knots. My program calculated that to make 36 knots, 90,256.7 SHP was required. That was at a displacement of 5,492.13 tons and a draft of 15.875 feet.
