<br />Rilllroad Quiet Zones <br />September 20, 2004 <br /> <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />Spencer outlined the process to implement a quiet zone. The first step is to contact a staff <br />person in Chicago who can calculate our incident ratio which will determine what needs to <br />be done and at how many crossings it needs to occur. Once the incident ratio has been <br />determined, the City can begin to look at specific crossings for establishing quiet zones. The <br />MetroPlains request require action at three crossings - Proctor, Jackson and Main Street. <br /> <br />If the Council desires, staff will contact the staff person in Chicago to analyze the incidents <br />at the seven crossings in the City; otherwise, staff will not pursue any further action <br />regartling this subject. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />$: \PLANNING\:Miche1e McPherson \CCREPRTS\RR quiet zones.doc <br />
