Title
Approval to revise the Traffic Calming Policy.
Presented by Steve Acenbrak, Director
Body
Item Summary:
The revision to the City's Traffic Calming Policy dated November 3, 2008 adds a Section # 7 to the policy describing Exceptions to the Policy to address situations outside of local streets. For example, the newly completed Mimosa Boulevard Extension has a raised crosswalk which is a collector street. The revision also allows for a case by case analysis of any future implementations of this nature. The revision eliminates any reference to the term "cut-through". This term is not nationally recognized as a traffic term and can cause confusion in interpretation of the policy.
Committee or Staff Recommendation:
On July 22, 2009 the Community Development and Transportation Committee recommended placing this item on the August 3, 2009 Mayor and Council Agenda.
