TRAFFIC WORKSHOP WITH SAFETY COMMISSION Back in September 2004, the Engineering Staff presented to the Village Board of Trustees a series of new traffic programs that were in different stages of development. Based on the input we received at that meeting, Staff has continued development of these programs and is now prepared for further discussion. The April 26 Committee of the Whole meeting, which has been scheduled to be a joint workshop with the Village Board and Safety Commission, will allow Staff to present new information and provide an opportunity for questions and discussion in an informal setting. We plan on dividing the meeting into two segments: evaluation and implementation. The first part of the meeting will focus on evaluation of the three new traffic programs. After Staff presents a program, there will be a time of discussion. It will be an opportunity to share opinions and ask questions. Your feedback will be critical in shaping the programs. Once there is a consensus on a program, Staff will move on to the next program. Attached for your consideration are the three traffic programs that will be presented at the meeting. The Residential Speed Limit Program evaluates speed limits on the Village's local streets in order to achieve a higher level of standardization. It was presented in detail last September and we have already begun to gather the necessary field data. The Residential Intersection Traffic Control Program will involve studying each of our intersections for the proper traffic control signs. And the Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program will provide a process of studying and implementing traffic calming measures on Village streets. The meeting will not be televised.
