City of Des Plaines Neighborhood Traffic Management Policy <br />Prioritization of Projects <br />It is important to note that even with the resident cost share, the City still faces limitations <br />in staff resources to perform the traffic management studies and traffic management design <br />as well as a limit in the amount of money available to front the project construction costs. <br />The City will make every effort to address traffic concerns in a timely manner. However, if <br />the demand outstrips available resources, then the City will apply the prioritization formula <br />to the project to determine where it fits in relative to the other petition areas that the City <br />has received. If there is a current waiting list in excess of available City resources, then the <br />location will be put onto the waiting Iist pending the availability of traffic monitoring <br />equipment, staff time and/or funding. <br />The traffic management program is designed as a triage rather than a first -come first <br />served program. Therefore, a petitioned location on the waiting list can be superseded by a <br />newly petitioned street if the new street scores higher in terms of priority. <br />Step 3 Neighborhood Survey <br />If the STAC recommended physical changes to the street, then the City will mail a survey, <br />specific to the type of traffic calming or other measure recommended, to all affected <br />residences. Some measures (e.g. speed humps, diagonal diverters, etc.) have the potential <br />to divert traffic to other local streets. In these cases, surveys will also be sent to residents <br />on adjacent blocks who are likely to be affected. The survey will include: <br />Summary of the results of the traffic study <br />Explanation of the measures recommended by the City based upon the study <br />Concept drawing for any infrastructure changes <br />Ranking of the proposed project in the City's priority queue <br />Rough preliminary cost estimate of the proposed changes including the cost to each <br />individual residence if the measures are implemented <br />Description of the Special Service Area process <br />Page 8 of 12 <br />The City will then tabulate the survey results. The following conditions must be met for the <br />process to continue: <br />A minimum of 75% of the residences on the block requesting the traffic calming <br />measure must vote in favor of the project. The survey will state that any surveys not <br />returned will be counted as a "NO" vote. <br />AND, for measures that may divert traffic to other local streets.. <br />A separate survey will be mailed to the residences on the likely affected adjacent <br />blocks. A minimum of 51% of the residences on all of the adjacent blocks must vote <br />in favor of the traffic calming measure. The survey will state that any surveys not <br />returned will be counted as a "YES" vote. <br />
