City of Des Plaines Neighborhood Traffic Management Policy Page 11 of 12 rehabilitation or reconstruction of the street The removal of a measure does not absolve the residences of complete payment of the previously incurred installation costs. If the neighborhood does not wish to wait until the next scheduled construction on the street, then they may still have the measures removed. However, the residences in the SSA must reimburse the City for its previous contribution to the installation of the measures and fund the removal of the measures. An amendment to the SSA must be filed following the same procedure used for initially creating the SSA, as outlined in Step 4. *Coordination between Traffic Calming Projects and Capital Improvement Program During the Data Collection (Step 2), the City will review the current 5 -year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to see whether the subject street is scheduled for any upcoming construction work. If the street is scheduled for upcoming work, there is potential for any proposed traffic calming measures to be implemented as part of the larger CIP project, resulting in a decreased cost to the residents. Furthermore, if upcoming CIP work is scheduled for the subject street, the City reserves the right to delay the installation of any traffic calming measures until that time. This is to prevent the City from having to manage the construction of traffic calming measures, only to have to potentially fund their reconstruction during the CIP work [Note: As per the "Project Cost Share" table in the Funding Section of this policy, residents pay for the initial construction, but the City then assumes the cost of future maintenance for any installed measures]. The coordination of traffic calming projects with CIP projects will be addressed on a case by -case basis and will be coordinated with the Alderman and the petitioning residents.
