Overview
Overview
On October 13, 2020, Village Staff brought to the Transportation Commission a petition for the 1150 block of South Cuyler to install a “No Parking 10 PM-6 AM seven days a week restriction” due to continuous disruption on the block from a business located in Berwyn. To provide a safe and calm environment for residents on the adjacent block, the Transportation Commission recommended to include the same parking restriction for the 1150 block of Highland.

Recommendation
Recommendation
The Transportation Commission recommends installing “No Parking from 10 PM-6 AM seven days a week.” Residents must have a current Village vehicle license to override the restriction between 10 PM and 2:30 AM. For hours between 10 PM and 2:30 AM, the residents can request passes for their guests to override the restriction using the Passport application. Both residents and visitors staying past 2:30 AM and up to 6 AM would need to secure an overnight pass using the Passport application.
Body
Staff Recommendation
Approve the Motion.
Fiscal Impact
Passes between 10 PM and 2:30 AM are free of charge. Residents can override the parking restriction with a valid vehicle license, and their guests can override the restriction with a temporary pass using the Passport application.
Between the hours of 2:30 AM to 6:00 AM, both residents and guests must utilize the Passport application to obtain an overnight parking pass. Residents and guests can obtain up to 10 passes a month. The first three (3) passes are free, and the remaining seven (7) are $7.00 each.
The proposed restriction will have a minimal impact to overall parking revenue streams.
Signage will be paid out of account #5060.43770.786.560634 (Street Sign Replacement).
Background
On October 13, 2020, the Transportation Commission reviewed two parking petitions that residents submitted due to issues with bars located in Berwyn. To prevent parking problems on adjacent blocks, the Transportation Commission recommended applying the same restriction to the two petitions: “No Parking 10 PM-6 AM seven days a week.”
Staff sent notification letters of the proposed parking restrictions to the 1150 block of Highland. The letter also advised residents to write to the board if they disagreed with the block's proposed restrictions.
