What options are being discussed to have consistent police enforcement of the traffic control plan?
Option 1) Have a Hour Based Resident Traffic Only Ordinance passed that authorizes police enforcement of the traffic control signage. Residents can be distinguished from non-residents via a decal or hang tag which can be made available to all residents for a very nominal fee, somewhere between 1-5 dollars per car with no need to renew. Option 2) An official resident referendum held during a county election to establish a Special Purpose Tax District. This option, while a bigger task, would provide both the CHCA and MANA areas with not only the traffic control signage but also with an assigned police officer to our neighborhoods only (hours to be determined and in proportion to the cost). The option was presented to us by our Commissioner, Jeff Rader. If residents voted, and the referendum passed, the likely cost per household would be somewhere in the neighborhood of $25-$80 per year, added as a federally tax deductible line item to your DeKalb County property tax bill.
