 Meeting

 Aye: 6- Gustin, Hurley, Melaniphy, Nondorf, Seeberg, and Webb

 Absent: 3- Blubaugh, Brown, and Howenstine


 2. Recommend approval of the Traffic Calming Toolkit

 Melaniphy begins with an explanation of how the traffic calming toolkit can help
 with the movement of traffic and pedestrians throughout the neighborhood.
 Melaniphy also explains that this is one of many tools for City staff to use on
 resident concerns throughout neighborhoods.

 Project Manager Michael Prousa states that the City hired Kenig, Lindgren,
 O'Hara, Aboona Inc. or KLOA to develop a traffic calming toolkit for the City.
 Prousa states that City staff will be able to use the traffic calming toolkit to have
 a consistent response to resident traffic concerns.

 Prousa explains the traffic calming toolkit and how City staff will apply some of
 the tools available to everyday requests.

 Eric Russell from KLOA explains how KLOA went about creating the toolkit and
 the industry standards that they used to do this. Russell explains how the toolkit
 explains in the document which applications would be best for certain issues
 that a roadway is facing.

 Webb asks at what level is the decision made for level 1 tools or level 3 tools to
 be used.

 Prousa explains that level 1 and 2 measures will be done internally within the
 transportation team in TED, level 3 and 4 measures will involve TAB along with
 other departments within the city.

 Nondorf states that he sees 2 utilities for the traffic calming toolkit, one for TED
 staff and the other potentially for the public via a city website.

 Prousa states that currently the toolkit has a spot on the city website and the
 long term plan is to continue to do that with more information on the toolkit site
 as staff applies the toolkit at locations.

 Nondorf asks if any changes have been made since the toolkit has been
 presented to TAB 11 months ago.

 Prousa states that the toolkit has not had any changes since the TAB
 presentation and that the public comment was mostly individual requests and
 the want for more data to be available.

 Gustin asks why speed bumps and speed cushions are not mentioned in the
 toolkit. He also asks what staff will do if a certain situation arises where a
 vertical measure may be appropriate.

 Prousa states that speed bumps and humps are not included in the toolkit
 because when discussing with internal departments staff found that other
 departments were not in favor of those applications. Reasons for this were
 snow removal, police and fire response times, damage to responding vehicles.

 Gustin states that speed bumps and humps do have issues but he believes that
 there could be a location in the future that may need them.

 Prousa states that there is an annotation at the end of the toolkit that explains
 that City staff has the right to decline or accept any application on a roadway.

 Seeberg states that it would be helpful to list the exclusions of tools on the
 website or in the toolkit. He also would like a status update for residents as the
 request goes through the city processes.

 Prousa states that currently on the website the frequently asked question
 section has a question explaining why certain tools are not included in the
 toolkit. Prousa also states that residents are kept in the loop as requests are
 processed.

 Seeberg adds that he would like the city to add more bikes lanes where
 possible throughout the city.


 A motion was made by Seeberg, seconded by Hurley, approved. The
 motion carried by the following vote:

 Aye: 7- Brown, Gustin, Hurley, Melaniphy, Nondorf, Seeberg, and Webb

 Absent: 2- Blubaugh, and Howenstine
