3. Approve a Recommendation to Establish a 25 MPH Speed Limit for numerous
subdivisions and streets across Naperville.
T.E.D. Project Manager Michael Prousa explains the process of establishing
speed limits on city streets. Staff found 65 streets from smaller subdivisions
across Naperville that had not had their speed limit established. Staff is looking
for TAB to approve a recommendation for a 25 mph speed limit to be
established for these streets.
Gustin asks if their is a 25 mph city wide ordinance for streets that do not have
a speed limit established
Deputy Engineer Andy Hynes explains that the city does not have an ordinance
and that the set speed limit for those streets is 30 mph per the Illinois Vehicle
Code.
Seeberg asks if this means that every street will get signage.
Prousa explains that not every street will get signage but that the entrances to
the larger subdivisions would have speed limit signage.
Melaniphy asks if their is an audit done that finds out if signage got put up when
these subdivisions are being built.
Prousa explains that signage does not get put up by the developers because it
is assumed that the speed limit is 30 mph per the Illinois Vehicle Code.
Hurley asks if the City shares the changes to speed limits to commercial
mapping companies.
Prousa says that he will get back to Hurley via email on the answer to his
question.
A motion was made by Nondorf, seconded by Gustin, approved. The
motion carried by unanimous vote.
