PROBLEM STATEMENT The City of Elgin continues to experience population growth and expansion since 1995. The last census shows the City of Elgin to have a population of 94,487, but an updated estimated population for 2006 is 101,700. The city is also expanding its western rimk boundary, and,at present, covers an area of 35.7square miles.Population growth and expansion have put enormous pressure on the cities roadways with the sharp increase of traffic traveling within and through the city limits. The city has three(3) state routes and a state toll way. Traffic on Randall Road, a four lane county roadway which runs north and south for the entire length of the western edge of Elgin,has increased at an alarming rate due to large scale development along the entire Randall Road corridor and.also with the expansion.of the city,limits on it's western edge,reaching Route 47.The City of Elgin continues to see alcohol, speed and belt restraint to be major factors in vehicular crash injuries and deaths. In the City of Elgin, there were (2) two fatalities in 2005 due to speed, and already in 2006 there have been(6) six fatalities,with(3)being speed related so far. In the last three years the areas of Randall Road,the U.S. Route 20 bypass and Illinois Route 31 have been problem areas. In 2003 Randall Road had 191 of the 273 total crashes in our Top Ten Intersections,with the Bypass accounting for 92.The injury crashes also included 47 out of 58 for Randall and 22 for the Bypass. In 2004 these two roadways continue to play a.huge role in the Top Ten intersections. Randall had a total of 178 crashes out of 329, with the Bypass having 135, and injury crashes for Randall were 41 out of the reported 62 and the bypass recorded 22. In 2005, again Randall road and Bypass 20 were in the Top Ten,with the majority of the intersections from these two locations. Randall Road had 256 of the reported 484 crashes, with the Bypass having 202. The injury crashes also had Randall intersections with 29 of the 59 reported and the Bypass with 24. Fatalities have been on the rise also,with two on Randall Road in 2005, and already two on Randall and two on Route 31 in 2006 all due to speed. • This crisis situation has forced the City of Elgin to search for solutions to reduce traffic related fatalities, through enforcement of alcohol, speed, and seatbelt restraint laws, along with increased efforts to educate students and citizens of the City of Elgin. Together,with some financial aid from the Illinois Department of Transportation, the City of Elgin can reduce traffic related fatalities and to make the City's roadways safer. B. BACKGROUND 1. General Characteristics • The City of Elgin is the eighth largest city in Illinois located partly in Cook County, the largest county in the State, and in Kane County,the fifth largest county in the State. Elgin is located in the Fox Valley,35 miles west of Chicago.The city has 4 State Routes (Rt.31, Rt.25, Rt.20 and Rt.47), along with an interstate highway(1-90). The city also has a bike trail running north to south through the entire length of the city. The City of Elgin also is home to the Grand Victoria Riverboat casino which is a source of additional traffic entering and exiting the city as most of its patrons travel from outside Elgin,the 2005 admission was over 2.7 million. A large scale annual event which also adds to increased vehicle traffic is the Fox Valley Fox Trot, and the DNA/ City of Elgin Bike Race. 2.History of Problem Solving The City of Elgin is a member of the Kane County Task Force on Drinking and Driving. The Task Force adopted a mission statement taking a total systems approach to the problem and develops any and all possible solutions that will lead to a reduction of death and injury caused by an intoxicated driver.The City of Elgin fully believes and truly backs this mission statement. The City of Elgin believes this mission can be accomplished through education, enforcement, and prevention. The City of Elgin was part of a grant given to Kane County, as a Safe Communities,in 2000. In this grant the city participated in saturation patrols with a high rate of success. The city accounted for 396 hours worked on the grant. The Elgin Police Department issued 995 citations. Speeding citations were 17% and seat belt/child restraint totaled 14%of the citations issued. The Elgin Police Department received and is currently active in a LAP Grant for the year 05/06. The city has previously participated in Child Passenger Safety Month(February), Alcohol Awareness Month(April),Buckle Up America Week(May), 3-D Month (December) Click It or Ticket, and Operation Safe Passage. The Traffic Unit also holds a Seat Belt class twice a month for violators of restraint laws. B-1.

Each officer is certified in radar/laser,teaches seat belt courses and speaks publicly on Driving Under the Influence and other alcohol related subjects. C TRAFFIC CRASH RECORDS SYSTEM • The computer system used at the Elgin Police Department is a Network developed by the City's Management Information System (MIS)Division. The program breaks down information that has been downloaded into the system, Information can be retrieved based on officer, date,location,or offense. Crash data is broken down by location,names of drivers, offenses related to the cause of the crash,weather, time of day, and injuries. The system is well suited to handle the needs of the grant. 1. Law Enforcement Objectives: +Conduct two (2)speed enforcements each day,through the months of March—August 2007.

RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the acceptance of the IDOT grant in the amount of$44,377.50 and authorize the City Manager to sign the grant agreement. BACKGROUND In the City of Elgin, there were (2) two fatalities in 2005, in which excessive speed was a significant factor, and thus far in 2006, we have experienced (9) fatalities with at least(4) four of the crashes involving excessive speed. Over the last three years, the areas of Randall Road, Route 20 and Illinois Route 31 have been areas of concern. In 2005, Randall Rd (256 crashes) and Route 20 (202 crashes) were identified as being two of the top ten roadways for traffic crashes. This situation has forced the police department to search for solutions to reduce traffic related fatalities, through enforcement of alcohol, speed, and seatbelt restraint laws, along with increased efforts to educate the driving population of the City of Elgin. Together, with some financial aid from the Illinois Department of Transportation, the City of Elgin can reduce traffic related fatalities and make the City's roadways safer. This grant runs from October 1, 2006 through September 30, 2007. ribk Efforts will include conducting two (2) speed saturation patrol enforcement efforts each day, through the months of March—August 2007. This will involve seven hundred sixty hours (760) of saturation patrols. These patrols will be conducted at various locations and times to be determined by a monthly enforcement plan. r 2006 IDOT Highway Safety Project Grant Agreement/Speed Enforcement October 20, 2006 Page 2 COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED Illinois Department of Transportation FINANCIAL IMPACT The amount of the IDOT grant will total $44,337.50.
