Presentation—Quiet Zone
Engineer Murawski presented slides of the Railroad Corridor Quiet Zone. Six public railroad crossings in Little
Chute meet the criteria for a quiet zone; French Road, Washington Street, Madison Street, Depot Street,
Buchanan Street and Rose Hill Road. Trustee Smith questioned with the expansion of highway 41 and 441
does it pay to do anything with the French Road crossing, Engineer Murawski advised it would be advantageous
to put the signage and install the tubular channel device. Trustee Smith questioned the estimates and the
County’s contribution, Engineer Murawski advised these are preliminary numbers from a consultant and will
need to work with the County for final numbers. Trustee Smith questioned how close the consultant estimates
would be, and Engineer Murawski advised the numbers are national averages. President Vanden Berg asked if
this would be bid together or one crossing at a time, Engineer Murawski advised it would probably have to be
one at a time as some of the crossings need to be worked on with the County. Administrator Fenlon suggested
that the channelization items could probably be put in by our employees and would work as a temporary fix.
Director Moes advised that property values would probably increase with the addition of a quiet zone or at least
make property easier to sell. Trustee Van Lankvelt asked about the improvements already made when we our
doing the roads, Engineer Murawski advised that though improvements were made they did not meet the
standards and work will have to be done to bring it into compliance. Trustee Hietpas asked once this is done,
how long would it take to get approval and is approval guaranteed, Engineer Murawski advised within a year
the approval would come through, and yes, if we do what we say we are going to do in the time frame specified
we would be approved. Trustee Peerenboom advised that Appleton has already installed the tubular channels if
the committee would like to see what they are. Trustee Peterson asked if they stay on year round and was
advised they cannot come out. This proposal will come back for final approval and included with the CIP.
Trustee Smith hopes it is less than a five year process. Engineer Murawski will bring in the consultant to give
further details to the Board.

REQUEST FOR VILLAGE BOARD CONSIDERATION
ITEM DESCRIPTION: 2018 Crosswalk Repairs – Grand Avenue and Main Street
PREPARED BY: Christopher L. Murawski, P.E., Village Engineering
REPORT DATE: August 17, 2018
ADMINISTRATOR'S REVIEW/COMMENTS:
No additional comments to this report: ______________________________
See additional comments attached: _________________________________
EXPLANATION: In an effort to begin restoration on the downtown crosswalks while decreasing
financial impacts the Engineering Department is pursuing an option to replace only the decorative
crosswalks within the street not including any sidewalk or other pavement rehabilitation. Staff has
requested a local contractor to provide a quotation for the work which is provided. Please review this
work and the proposal while considering it is half of the original budget.
Much of the cost difference from the original budget is due to a split 2-phase traffic control operation.
The traffic control plan has been approved by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation and they
will allow us to use the existing traffic lights to provide a single lane of traffic for this work. This
allows the work to be done in two phases or two mobilizations.
RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of the Village Engineer to approve the Grand
Ave and Main St crosswalk repair work for the amount of $23,250.00.
