Options Available for Traffic Calming

1. Request the County to analyze a street for traffic calming which will place them on a priority list based on speed, number of vehicles on the road, and pedestrian generators (schools, parks, etc). The higher the project is on the priority list the sooner the project can be completed when funds are available. A surcharge on motor vehicle moving violations provides annual funding.
   
   Requests must be made in writing and include signatures from ten (10) different property owners adjacent to the roadway where the traffic calming is requested.

2. Create a Local Improvement District (LID) where the residents pay for traffic calming and the County installs it.
