BACKGROUND:
Sponsored by the Downtown Naperville Alliance (DNA), the Downtown Vintage Emergency Vehicle Show will be held on Sunday, August 6, 2017 from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. on Jackson Avenue.
DISCUSSION:
On Tuesday, August 1, neighborhoods throughout Naperville will participate in the 22nd Annual National Night Out (NNO) event. As an extension of NNO, and to continue the theme of the Annual Classic Car Show held in June, the DNA will be hosting a Vintage Emergency Vehicle Show on Jackson Avenue An estimated 50 vehicles will be on display.
Specific temporary traffic control information is depicted on the attached map. The attached ordinance is required to implement No Parking, Tow Away Zones in the area and details the affected streets. Jackson Avenue will be closed beginning at approximately 8:30 a.m. and will open to vehicular traffic and the No Parking, Tow Away Zone signs will be removed at approximately 3:00 p.m., or as soon as the Naperville Police Department determines it appropriate based on public safety.
The DNA and the organizers of the Sprint Triathlon are aware that both events are held on the same day. All parties have been involved in the Special Event logistics meetings and staff does not anticipate any issues.
The DNA will notify all affected businesses and residents of the event and road closures and all insurance requirements will be fulfilled prior to the issuance of the permit.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Because an officer is permanently assigned to the Downtown area, the Police Department does not anticipate billing for City services.
