Body
Issue/Request:
An Ordinance amending the Schedule of Fees and Charges effective July 1, 2021, to establish fees for Temporary Traffic Control permits for the City of Lee's Summit, Missouri.

Key Issues:
Public Works is requesting to establish a fee structure for Temporary Traffic Control Permits effective in FY22.

- A Temporary Traffic Control (TTC) Permit must be obtained from the City of Lee's Summit Public Works Department any time the authorized right-of-way user performs work or actions that narrows, closes, or otherwise impacts the normal flow of vehicular traffic or pedestrian traffic on any public street or sidewalk.

- $40 - Sidewalk Closure or Parking Closure (low impact)
- $55 - Lane Closure (s) (medium impact)
- $80 - Lane/Road Closure(s) with Detour and/or Special Terms/Conditions (high impact)
