body
DEPARTMENT: Transportation, Engineering and Development
SUBMITTED BY: Sydney Smith, Transportation Project Manager
BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
On March 13, 2025 the Transportation Advisory Board approved a recommendation to establish Overnight Parking Exemptions for the Coach Houses of Old Sawmill. Approved 6-0. Staff concur.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Naperville Municipal Code Section 11-2A-8 prohibits on-street parking between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. The City has received concerns regarding compliance with this ordinance, particularly in multi-family developments that lack adequate off-street parking accommodations.
In 2022, City Council approved the Overnight Parking Program to address this concern. Participating developments are issued passes (hangtags) that exempt residents from the All-Night Parking ordinance. This program requires active participation by the Homeowner’s Association to administer the program and manage hangtag distribution. The details of this program can be found in Attachment 1.
DISCUSSION:
The Coach Houses of Old Sawmill Homeowner’s Association, located south of 87th St. and west of Washington St., requested to be included in the Overnight Parking Program. Representatives from the Fire, Police, Public Works, and TED departments reviewed the application and confirmed all program requirements were met.
Staff recommends overnight parking exemptions at the following locations: the south side of Lancaster Cir. Between 87th St. and Exeter Ct., the south side of Plymouth Ct., and the east side of Sunderland Ct. A map of this proposal can be found in Attachment 2. Due to the limited availability of on-street parking, staff further recommends issuing 24 hangtags to be distributed by the Coach Houses of Old Sawmill Homeowner’s Association President.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Additional signage is estimated at $800. Hangtag permits are estimated at $50.
