RE: Draft ordinance to adopt parking restrictions on Princeton south of Belden
to be considered at next Villa Park Traffic and Safety Commission meeting
Dear Resident:
The Village of Villa Park Traffic and Safety Commission is expected to consider
recommendation of a draft ordinance to adopt new parking restrictions on Princeton
Avenue south of Belden at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
The public is invited to attend the meeting and provide comments prior to the
commission’s consideration. The commission’s next meeting is scheduled for
Tuesday, December 3, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. in the Village Board Room on the second
floor of the Village of Villa Park Village Hall, located at 20 South Ardmore Avenue.
Members of the public who would like to provide comments but are not able to attend the
meeting may submit those comments by email to trafficandsafety@invillapark.com no
later than Tuesday, December 3, at 3:00 p.m.
The draft ordinance would prohibit parking of vehicles on the west side of Princeton
Avenue from Belden Avenue south to the south end of Princeton Avenue. A copy of the
draft ordinance is enclosed, along with an exhibit depicting the limits of the proposed
parking restrictions.
If the commission votes to recommend adoption of the draft ordinance, the ordinance
would still need to be presented at a future Village Board meeting for consideration.
Please note that the draft ordinance pertains only to “on-street” parking restrictions, and
not to the marked perpendicular parking spaces adjacent to Twin Lakes Park. The
marked parking spaces are not part of the draft ordinance and would remain unaffected.

Subject: December 3, 2024 Traffic and Safety Commission Meeting - Proposed Ordinance
prohibiting parking on Princeton Ave by Twin Lakes Park.
Re: Proposed Ordinance to prohibit parking of vehicles AT ANY TIME along Princeton Avenue,
west side, from Belden Avenue to the south end of Princeton Avenue.
Dear Traffic and Safety Commission, and Staff,
Residents of Princeton Ave by Twin Lakes Park were provided a door knocker info regarding the
proposed ordinance right before Thanksgiving week, when there are many who are out of town and
busy with holiday gatherings with family. Because of the tight turn-around, I thought it best to email
you regarding the proposed ordinance and its impact on residents, as most likely the Board Packet
for the meeting would have been completed.
We feel that the proposed ordinance is punitive to residents that live on Princeton Ave and restricts
our right to the enjoyment of our property. The ordinance prohibits residents that have paid for their
property and pay property taxes to be restricted from parking on Princeton. The proposed ordinance
would also prohibit the guests of the residents from parking on Princeton limiting the enjoyment of
having a family gathering. Residents were not the cause of the parking difficulties that occurred. The
program participants park along residents’ property and also on the grassy area of the park under
the trees. This causes ruts and makes the area look unsightly. The park’s grassy area is part of the
park wetland and is the location of two storm water pipes that were required to be installed by my
husband and I when we built our house at 1022 N. Princeton. We are concerned that the parking by
vehicles in this area could move these pipes, depending on soil conditions which could affect the
proper water drainage from our home's drain-tile and flood our basement.
In addition, there are safety concerns because children are in amongst the parked cars, also running
into the street. Parents are not always attentive. As residents, when we drive slowly to our home,
the parents are startled and are upset by us driving to our home. It appears that there is not enough
time allowed between the games to provide time for parents to leave from the game their child has
participated to evacuate a parking spot and allow time for the next group of parents to arrive and
park in the parking lot . So there is an overlap of the time scheduled for the games when it comes
to the management of the recreation program.
Attached to this email are pictures of the parking issue when recreation programs are held at Twin
Lakes Park. The participants
Background: I had attended and spoke during “Public Comments on Agenda Items” during the
August 6, 2024 Traffic and Safety Commissioner Meeting regarding Agenda Item no. 900 which was
presented as “Old Business.” My comments explained that the parking issues were caused by the
soccer recreation program participants. The participants all try to park on Princeton as the soccer
field nets were set up on that side of the park.
For the August 6, 2024 meeting, another resident had emailed in response to the notification of the
Traffic and Safety Commission August 6, 2024 meeting, which was read during the meeting by the
commission, stating the issue with the parking on Belden was caused by the program
Page 1 of 3
Page 12 of 33
participants. The email also stated that there is no recommendation/desire for the parking lot on
Belden to be increased in size.
During the August 6th meeting participants were asked to provide a recommendation on how the
parking issues could be addressed. I stated that the problem could be mitigated economically by the
park’s department in using simple “h-frame” signs that can be made and installed along the west
side of Princeton as well as the park’s grassy area (adjacent to the parking lot) to remind participants
that parking is only permitted in the park’s parking lots. The h-frame signs could be easily installed
by staff or coaches before the games, and taken down after the games.
In addition, it's important to note further issue was caused by the installation of a porta potty in the
Princeton Parking lot, as it took up one of the parking spots, reducing the parking even more. Instead
of encouraging participants to use the OSLAD grant program-built brick bathrooms. (Residents had
to look at a porta potty which was there longer than the dates when the soccer program was held.)
Please amend Proposed Ordinance:
As residents, we request the Commission to amend the proposed ordinance as follows:
“Whereas, the Village of Villa Park Traffic and Safety Commission has voted at its regular meeting
held on December 3, 2024, by a vote of ___ to ___ to recommend that parking of vehicles not to be
permitted along Princeton Avenue, west side, from Belden Avenue to the south end of Princeton
Avenue except by residents whose home property is coterminous with Princeton Avenue, west side,
from Belden Avenue to the south end of Princeton Avenue. Twin Lakes Park visitors and program
participants shall park only in the Twin Lakes Park paved parking lots. Parking in unpaved areas is
prohibited.”
Thank you,
Ron and Bonnie Gibellina

Subject: Traffic and Safety Commission Meeting - Item No. 900 Parking Restrictions on
Princeton Avenue and Belden - Homeowner Comments
Hello,
My name is Rosa Botello, homeowner of 1036 N Princeton Avenue. We are unable to attend the
meeting, but wanted to share our comments. We're also concerned with the number of cars
parked in our neighborhood - specifically during Villa Park Soccer League Season.
Agree With:
• Adding "No Street Parking" signs (on park side, not residential side)
• Restricting parking and limiting to ONLY Twin Lakes parking spaces
Do NOT Agree with:
• Adding more parking spaces
o There is a parking lot on the southeast side of the park (on Ardmore Ave)
o Do not want to impact the local ecological system (No tree removal, vegetation
removal, etc)
▪ This also negatively impacts the appeal and value of our neighborhood
Recommend:
• Including a notice to parents when registering children for Village Programming (aka
Soccer League) to be respectful of residential parking restrictions
• Sending a reminder to homeowners/residents that restriction applies to front easement
as well.
o Latest Renters at 1040 N Princeton parked on both sides of the street, including
overnight parking
• Parking Enforcement should monitor this during high traffic/parking problem times (Ex:
Kid's Soccer League - Late April through Early June)
Looking forwarding to hearing what actions the commission will take!
Thanks,
Rosa Botello
