BACKGROUND On July 15, 1997 the Mayor and City Commission adopted the Traffic Calming and Street Closing Policy and directed staff to prepare a Resolution adopting an application form and an application fee of $250. The Traffic Calming and Street Closing Policy outlines the goals and objectives of the program and provides an overview of possible alternatives when faced with traffic problems on local residential streets. It also includes a process which when followed, should provide a clear understanding of the traffic problem and assist in determining the best possible solution which meets the needs of the neighborhood and the City. DISCUSSION In order to establish a fair and cost-efficient process, staff and TransCore, the City's transportation consultant, researched traffic calming and street closing policies in Orlando, Maitland, Orange County, and other Florida jurisdictions to determine what type of application form and fee should be adopted. It was determined that all requests for traffic calming and/or street closures should be made by formal application and that the application fee be adopted to cover some of the costs associated with review of the request. The attached application form was designed to collect the c:\aIl_data\bfpdfile\correspondence\staffreports\c.c-traffic calm form.sr.doc ��( Staff Report-Resolution 98- August 11, 1998 Page 2 basic level of information required by staff to make an initial determination of what type of action is being sought by the applicant. Studies may be done to measure volume and or speed of vehicles as well as cut-through traffic and safety issues. City staff estimates that a fee of$250 is a reasonable portion of the cost to process and evaluate the initial request upon submittal of an application. This would basically include processing the application, a meeting with relevant City staff, basic data collection to include traffic count and speed information and presentation of the initial findings to the City Commission. This fee is consistent with the fees charged for other applications which involve a similar level of staff and consultant effort. Actual costs for the process may be higher due to additional review and analysis by staff and TransCore, as well as mailings and advertisements for public meetings; however, the initial studies may also show that no further action is warranted. Since the need for more extensive analysis would be determined after the initial staff review, the allocation of cost to pay for further study and design would be made by the City Commission. RECOMMENDATION Staff respectfully recommends that the City Commission approve Resolution 98-10 adopting the attached Traffic Calming and Street Closing Application Form and Resolution 98-11 amending the Fee Schedule to include the Traffic Calming and Street Closing Application Fee. cc: Ellis Shapiro, City Manager Russ Wagner, AICP, Director of Planning Jim Shira, P.E., City Engineer/Utilities Director Bob Smith, Public Works Director Ron Strosnider, Fire Chief Bob Mark, Police Chief Attachments c:\all_data\bfpdfile\correspondence\staffreports\c.c-traffic calm form.sr.doc RESOLUTION NO. 98- 10 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF OCOEE, FLORIDA, ADOPTING ADDITIONAL FORMS FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE PURSUANT TO SECTION 1-13 OF CHAPTER 180 OF THE OCOEE CITY CODE; PROVIDING THAT THIS RESOLUTION IS SUPPLEMENTAL TO PREVIOUS RESOLUTIONS ADOPTING LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE FORMS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
