BASIC PROGRAM PROCEDURES1) Call 740-2853
or request a NTMP information packet. The
initial packet contains information about the program, traffic calming, and
costs to the neighborhood. 2) After
reviewing the initial packet, meet with your neighbors and discuss the
information provided. The whole neighborhood must be involved. 3) Call Traffic
Engineering at 740-2853 to set up an initial neighborhood meeting. At this
meeting, the NTMP will be explained in detail. 4) To proceed,
circulate petitions given out after the first meeting. At least 60% of the
property owners in the traffic input benefit area must show an interest. Send
the completed petitions to Pima County Department of Transportation (PCDOT).
The petitions will be verified and then your neighborhood will be included in
the NTMP. 5) The data
collection phase will then be scheduled. This phase involves taking traffic
volumes and traffic speeds, and a general review of the area. 6) Results of the
data that was collected will be discussed at a second meeting. Several
alternatives will be presented. These options may include traffic circles,
speed humps, or other traffic calming devices. 7) The
neighborhood committee will select a plan. The plan will be approved by the
Deputy Director of PCDOT. A petition will be circulated requiring approval of
60% of the property owners. This petition will be validated by PCDOT. 8) Construction
of the project will then be scheduled. The neighborhood will pay the
contractor when the project is completed. |
