body
DEPARTMENT: Transportation, Engineering and Development
SUBMITTED BY: Jazmin Vega, Transportation Project Manager
BACKGROUND:
The City of Naperville Municipal Code Section 11-2A-1 does not restrict parking in front of mailboxes.
The City has received a concern regarding vehicles parking in front of a homeowner’s mailbox during school pick up. The homeowner is concerned about vehicle parking obstructing the delivery of their mail.
In other local municipalities, ordinances have been established to restrict parking within a certain distance of a mailbox or during mailbox delivery hours to ensure mail carriers may access mailboxes.
DISCUSSION:
Staff recommends the approval of establishing a no parking restriction in front of mailboxes. There will be no signage unless staff finds appropriate and reasonable circumstances.
