Staff is available to help neighborhoods to resolve their traffic concerns in a public review process. Staff collects alot of traffic data, for example, vehicle speeds and traffic volumes. Typical tools for NTMP include engineering, education and enforcement. Before the City will install the permanent traffic control measures, we may conduct a test using temporary installation. Other tools include target enforcement by our Sheriff deputies and the placement of a radar trailer.
Permit parking is available for neighborhoods with onstreet parking problems.
If staff concurs with the request and when City Council approves it, Service Center staff will install appropriate regulatory signs. Public Works Department will issue permit parking stickers. Traffic Calming is the combination of mainly physical measures that reduce the negative effects of motor vehicle use, alter driver behavior and improve conditions for non-motorized street users.
