JANONIS ~. ~-a, ~r'!'~ FROM: PROJECT ENGINEER DATE: FEBRUARY 26, 2009 SUBJECT: NEIGHBORHOOD TRAFFIC STUDY REQUESTED INFORMATION FOR ZONE 6 At the February 17th Village Board Meeting, Trustees requested Staff take a closer look at the recommended intersection traffic control at Highland Avenue and Windsor Drive. They also asked Staff to see if there is an Agreement between the Village and Matz Funeral Home granting permission to the funeral home to use the streets of Little Brickman Subdivision as a procession route. Staff has investigated these two issues and offers the following response. Highland Avenue and Windsor Drive is a three-legged intersection that is currently controlled with stop signs in two directions: southbound and westbound. Though this unconventional arrangement has not resulted in any accidents over the past three years, it is inconsistent with the established guidelines of the Neighborhood Traffic Study. To be consistent, the intersection should either have a stop sign on the terminating street (Windsor Drive) only or should be a 3-way stop if justified. The existing stop bars are set back because of the intersection's geometry. This can make it difficult to see approaching vehicles when stopped at the intersection. Also, a concern with cut through traffic has been expressed to the Village by residents over the years. Because of this ongoing issue, Staff is sensitive to maintaining at least the same number of impediments from Rand Road to Kensington Road and vice versa along the through routes in order to not exacerbate the situation. For these reasons, Staff continues to support a 3-way stop at this intersection. Leaving the stop sign arrangement as-is (2-way stop) will be unique and like no other in the Village. It will also result in fewer impediments along the neighborhood through routes. Removing the westbound stop sign and only leaving the southbound stop sign on Windsor Drive may create a sight obstruction issue and will also result in fewer impediments along the neighborhood through routes. There is approximately 110' between Windsor Drive and Rand Road along Highland Avenue. With a 3-way stop at Highland Avenue and Windsor Drive, six vehicles could stack along eastbound Highland Avenue before reaching Rand Road. Based on the current traffic volumes, Staff does not believe a 3-way stop at this intersection will create any operational issues. Nevertheless, with any decision that is made at this intersection, both the Engineering Division and Police Department will monitor the situation and be prepared to make any modifications as necessary. With respect to an Agreement between the Village and Matz Funeral Home, Staff checked with various Village personnel and did not find any such Agreement. It is believed there is not a written Agreement pertaining to this issue. page 2 of2 Neighborhood Traffic Study February 26, 2009 Please include this information for the March 3rd Village Board Meeting. Representatives from the Engineering Division will be in attendance to answer any questions.

JANONIS FROM: PROJECT ENGINEER DATE: FEBRUARY 11, 2009 SUBJECT: NEIGHBORHOOD TRAFFIC STUDY RECOMMENDATION FOR INTERSECTION TRAFFIC CONTROL AND SPEED LIMIT CHANGES FOR ZONES 1, 2, S & 6 The Engineering Division transmits their recommendation to approve intersection traffic control and speed limit changes for Zones 1, 2, S & 6 as part of the Neighborhood Traffic Study. The Residential Intersection Traffic Control Program and Residential Speed Limit Program are the two primary traffic initiatives that are included in the current Neighborhood Traffic Study. The Residential Intersection Traffic Control Program involves reviewing all neighborhood intersections to determine the proper traffic control. The Residential Speed Limit Program involves reviewing all Village-owned streets to determine the appropriate speed limit. Both programs are being implemented on a neighborhood by neighborhood basis using today's engineering principles. The Village has been divided into 18 neighborhoods or "traffic zones" for the purpose of implementing the programs. With the assistance of a consultant, KLOA Inc., the Engineering Division has completed the study of Zones 1, 2, 5 & 6. The neighborhood of Zone 1 is bounded by Seminole Lane to the north, River Road to the east, Camp McDonald Road to the south, and the western Village limits. Zone 2 is bounded by Camp McDonald Road to the north, River Road to the east, Euclid Avenue to the south, and the western Village limits. Zone 5 is bounded by Euclid Avenue to the north, River Road to the east, Kensington Road to the south, and Wolf Road to the west. And Zone 6 is bounded by Kensington Road to the north, Wolf Road to the east, the southern boundary of the Kensington Business Park to the south, and Rand Road to the west. SUMMARY Residential Intersection Traffic Control Program A total of 123 intersections in the four zones were reviewed to determine the proper traffic control. A summary of the recommendations are indicated in the tables on the next page. page 2 of8 Neighborhood Traffic Study February 11, 2009 Zone 1 Intersection Traffic Control Type # of Existing Intersections # of Recommended Intersections All-Way Stop Sign Control 5 2 . . . . .

The Engineering Division also evaluated the three schools within these neighborhoods, Frost Elementary School, Indian Grove Elementary School and Park View Montessori School, to determine those streets that should be posted a school speed limit zone. Along those streets there would be a 20 mph speed limit during school hours when children are present. At other times, the speed limit would be 25 mph. Section 18.605 of the Village Code covers school speed limit zones. Therefore, a separate ordinance is not required. A summary of the recommendations are indicated in the tables below.

The brochure provided information about the traffic study and invited them to an Open House to learn about the proposed changes. A web page that included a 12 minute video explaining the programs was created on the Village web-site as an additional avenue to get information to the public. The Open House was held on January 26th at Indian Grove Elementary School. Residents could come anytime between 6:00pm & 7:30pm. The Open House included the video about the programs and an area where residents could see the recommended changes on display boards and talk with Staff. Residents could also fill out a Comment Card and provide Staff with feedback. All written comments received via the Open Houses, e-mail or regular mail are attached. Approximately 20 residents attended the Open House. Based on the traffic study perfonned by KLOA Inc. and the Engineering Division, we are recommending changes to Chapter 18 (fraffic) of the Village Code as detailed on the following pages. With the Village Board of Trustees' approval, the Engineering Division will then work with the contractor currently under contract to manufacture and install the necessary signs. The current schedule is to have the new signs installed this spring.

BACKGROUND On January 13 and January 27, 2009, the Village Board reviewed the revised version of Chapter 13 (Liquor) of the municipal code. During the meetings, Everette Hill, the Village Attorney, thoroughly explained the new liquor license classifications, permits and certifications, and identified the new and deleted provisions. The Village Board raised several concerns, some of which required revisions to the proposed Liquor Code. On February 17, 2009, the revised Liquor Code was presented to the Board at the first reading. Some minor language issues were noted, miscellaneous fees were established, and the ordinance was duly amended. DISCUSSION The revised version of the Liquor Code now addresses many of the demands requested by businesses, civic and non-profit organizations, while balancing the safety and welfare of the community. Moreover, the Liquor Code is now more organized and a little more user-friendly. RECOMMENDATION Accordingly, Staff recommends the Board adopt the revised version of the Liquor Code. ~ Administrative Assistant Michael Dallas Administrative Analyst MCD/dj c: Irvana Wilks, Mayor Dave Strahl, Assistant Village Manager Everette Hill, Village Attorney B H:\VILMIMDallas\Liquor License\Process Improvement\Board Meetings\Revised Liquor Code - Second Reading 2-25-09.doc FINAL PROPOSED 2-25-09 ORDINANCE NO.
