HomeMy WebLinkAboutOctoberOver 100 West U residents got an up close and personal look at traffic issues during the September 23rd's Vision 2020 Town Meeting, fifth in a series that will lead to updating the City's Comprehen- sive Plan. Attendees at the three hour meeting heard a variety of recommendations from reducing speed limits to issuing residents parking permits for on-street overnight parking. Some suggestions fared better than others. Consultant Chris Peck from the Goodman Corporation began the meet- ing by noting that regional traffic pro- jections developed by the Houston- Galveston Area Council for the years 2010 and beyond do not indicate signifi- cant increases in traffic volumes for Kirby, Buffalo and Bissonnet. "On the other hand," said Peck, "traf- fic along Bellaire and localized traffic in West U will increase as a result of con- tinued perimeter development. There will be additional pressure on all entry points to handle this traffic and there is need to develop an orderly traffic flow now." Peck presented several preliminary recommendations to improve traffic flow including retiming traffic signals, elimi- nating on-street parking on Buffalo Speedway and limiting left-turn oppor- tunities onto Kirby and Buffalo Speed- way. Several residents expressed con- cern over a suggestion that the speed limit on Buffalo Speedway should be in- creased to 35 mph. Peck also presented some traffic calm- ing approaches which would call for traf- fic diverters, rumble strips or pavers at major pedestrian intersections, striping and raised crosswalks - but no speed humps. "We're just not big fans of speed humps," Peck noted. A proposal to issue resident parking stickers and pre-notification for overnight guest visitors was met with some skep- ticism. "It will just complicate my life, " said one resident. A preliminary plan for a pedestrian/bi- cycle system that links the City Center, The Village, and the City's parks was also discussed. That system and City Center redevel- opment will be discussed at the October 19`h Town Meeting. 41 Van :::€::::€:a Sharon J; H Reusser Senior Services Manager is C i taking a look is at the new 13 t passenger, van = 1 recently put 1 into service. - The wheel- _ chair lift Ford van cost $40, 000 and „ . replaces a 10 year old _r model.

Fogler A topic of interest at almost all of the town hall meetings we have held in pursuit of a comprehensive plan for our City has been sidewalks. Regardless of the subject matter of the meeting, the condition - usually regarded as poor - of the sidewalks in West U seems to be on everyone's mind. September's meet- ing was not different, with talk turning to sidewalks as a means to keep the joggers off the streets and children safely headed to school. In our final workshop meeting of September, therefore, Council took up the issue of sidewalks. Traditionally the policy on sidewalks in West U has re- quired that sidewalks be installed and maintained at the expense of individual homeowners. We have standards for sidewalks, such as width, location, and materials, to ensure their uniformity to a degree, but we have not forced homeowners to upgrade existing side- walks to meet these standards as they have changed. Homeowners' insurance has been in place to govern the many liability pro- ducing incidents which occur on side- walks, which makes some sense be- cause we continue to have sidewalk- less homes in our City and we all con- tinue to trip over sidewalks in varying states of disrepair around our neighbor- hoods. That having been said, the fact still remains that one alternative would be to continue the status quo of side- walks each homeowner decides when and how to fix his or her sidewalk and foots the bill. Another alternative that has been suggested is for the City to assume re- sponsibility for the sidewalks, lock, stock, and barrel, as the old saying goes. The City would contract and pay for the installation. The City would con- y . r The City would assume any liability as- sociated with sidewalks. All of these costs, of course, would be borne by you - the taxpayers. Every residence would be required to have sidewalks along all adjacent streets, whether the owners really want them one or not. West Uni- versity Place would be equipped with a complete set of impeccable sidewalks, all at the taxpayers' expense. Council is interested in learning the details about these two extreme alter- natives; details like costs, actual liability scenarios, and impact on the urban for- est we so dearly prize in our City. We are also interested in investigating other alternatives, some that lie in the vast middle ground between the status quo and the take-over strategy. Accordingly, we have asked staff to study the issue. Now the word "study" in government parlance often means "make this go away", but that is not what we mean to do in this instance, believe me. We mean to learn more about the possibilities, to see if there is one best answer to this issue for the City. Staff will research policies of other cities, seek legal clarification of the li- ability issues, consider overall costs and financing options, and seek answers to the often raised questions about protect- ing our trees. What are some of the possibilities for funding a sidewalk pro- gram? The ones we know just a little about include: Assessment programs, in which the City would pay the costs up front and recoup them from individual homeowners who re- ceived new or upgraded side- walks over time as an adden- dum to their annual tax bill. Trr„~„ro FT. A ..,1,r1, ..,,,!A require an election, to fund the expenses. Establishment of a one time pro- gram (sort of like amnesty) un- der which the City would install and repair all the sidewalks now, and only now, but maintenance and liability would remain with the homeowner in the long term. The City funds the program and the costs are recouped only when the home is sold or passed to a new owner through inherit- ance. Of course these are not the only funding options, and there are just as many op- tions regarding the sidewalks themselves - their placement around trees, appro- priate materials for use around trees, their addition to streets which have never been equipped with sidewalks, and more. In the next couple of months we plan to have answers to some of the ques- tions we have raised about the alterna- tives that could be available to use to solve this vexing problem of sidewalks. But in addition to the information we have commissioned from staff, we need input from you, the taxpayers. Although we have heard some opinions on this is- sue, we have not heard it all, I am cer- tain. We ask that in the next few weeks, if you have an opinion on this topic, please share it with me or with another member of Council. Should we use tax dollars to fund a side- walk program or should individual homeowners continue to bear the cost? Should the City mandate the installation of sidewalks citywide or leave that de- cision to homeowners? If a uniform, ,.4;.. ,..7 X .iat..t tvi anu vav ivi uro mauucnaii,c. , ..1.

Because some residents are plac- ing plastic cartons, styrofoam cups, flower pots and other non-compostable material in the paper yard waste bags, entire truck loads of yard waste must be unloaded by hand. "Our vendor which handles yard waste noticed that bags were being con- taminated with material that does not decompose," said Public Works Direc- tor Edward Menville. "As a conse- quence, crews must go through each bag of yard waste to ensure that they con- tain only grass clippings, small twigs, and old plantings." Menville noted it takes an individual about three to four hours to tear open every bag that is processed. "The purpose of using kraft bags is to divert compostable material from the landfill. This has been a substantial sav- ings to the City," Menville continued. "However, our vendor cannot accept contaminated material." So please, when using kraft yard waste bags, use them for their intended purpose. f1i'010rically ~p~aking... ti_ _ _ r _ Wier Park has the distinction of be- ing the oldest park in West University Place. When the Monticello Addition was platted in June of 1926, it set aside a tract of land where Sunset and Nottingham Boulevards intersected with Belmont Street. The owners of the tract conveyed this land to the city on July 30, 1930, for park purposes. R.W. Wier, one of the owners of the addition, responded to a Resolution from the city commissioners expressing their appreciation for the donation. "Mr. B. Frank Bonner, my brother, T.P. Wier, and my sister, Miss Mattie Wier, are j oint owners of Monticello with Mr. Barkley and me, and it gave me and each of us pleasure to set aside a block of ground that in the years to come the people of Monticello and the West Uni- versity Place district may have a breath- ing spot and a place of recreation," said Wier. The city named their newly acquired property Monticello Park. The name was changed to Wier Park in 1939, when the city council placed a copper tablet in the park bearing the in- scription of the park donors. Today, the plaque is located at the Belmont entrance to the park. The plaque reads: Erected in honor of Robert W. Wier and Thomas P. Wier in commemora- tion of the thoughtful gift of Wier Park the citizens of West University Place are the beneficiaries of the gen- erosity and public spirit of these men who have been forceful factors in the development of this community.

I believe any of you who have lived here for longer than ten years can attest that the volume of motor' vehicles traveling on our streets ( and definitely on our inner streets) has in- creased. Because of this increase and in- put received from citizens like your- selves, the police department had re- directed it's traffic enfornacement ef- forts to the inner neighborhood areas. That's why you have seen more of- ficers writing more tickets in these areas. But, traffic enforcement is just a part of controlling traffic. I have been talking with different residents about traffic laws and a couple of laws are always the center of the conver- sation. They are speeding and run- ning stop signs. Lets review these two laws. In the state of Texas, the speed limit in an urban district such as our neigh- borhood is 30 MPH unless otherwise posted. So if you don't see a speed limit sign while driving down one of our city streets the speed limit is 30. Next, and probably the one that gets the most attention is stop sign vio- lations. The law states that a driver is required to stop before entering the crosswalk if there is one, or at a clearly marked stop line ifthere is one, or stop at the place nearest the inter- secting roadway where the driver has a veiw of approaching traffic. Re- member the important word is "stop not slow down or roll through. Lastly, lets remember driving eti- quette. The first person that arrives at an intersection that is controlled by stop signs and stops, has the right of way to continue when it is safe. Please be courteous of other drivers and be safe.
