The attached detour map shows the route for detour of north and southbound traffic on Illinois Route 23 and east and westbound traffic on Illinois Route 38. II. Background Kish Fest returns to the City of DeKalb in 2019 with the Kish Fest Parade planned for the evening of Friday, July 26, 2019. Procedure requires that a resolution and a Statement of Insurance from the City be submitted and accompany the request for a permit from IDOT to close Illinois Route 38 from First to Tenth Streets, and the intersection of Illinois Route 23 and 38. The staging area and parade route are as follows: Staging Area: Units will stage at Founders Elementary School on East Taylor and South Seventh Streets. Parade Route: Beginning on South Seventh Street at Founders Elementary School, the parade will head north on South Seventh Street, left (west) onto Illinois Route 38, then right onto North Second Street to disperse at Locust Street. The Detour Route is specified in the attached resolution. The street will be posted to close at 6:00 p.m. Vintage vehicles will come across the parade route to park on Lincoln Highway at 5:00 p.m. with the full parade to follow. At the end of the parade, vehicles and other entries will disperse north and the street will re- open. The bands for the street dance will come south on First Street and then take their position on Second Street and Third Street. III. Community Groups/Interested Parties Contacted Volunteer community groups are involved in the parade. IV. Legal Impact Kish Fest will provide a bodily injury liability and property damage liability insurance policy for injury or wrongful death to any persons and for all damages arising out of injury or destruction of property for $1,000,000 combined single limit. Insurance certificates naming both the City and IDOT, its officials, employees and agents as insured, will be provided by FunMe events prior to issuance of necessary permits. V. Financial Impact Kish Fest uses volunteer staff to control parade routes and assist with set-up/teardown of events. No overtime pay costs for City staff will be incurred. In 2014 the City purchased the materials needed to route this detour. VI. Options In order for this event to occur as scheduled, a resolution must accompany the City’s request to IDOT for closure of Illinois Route 38 and detour of Illinois Route 23 on the date noted in this memo. VII. Recommendation It is recommended that Council approve this resolution as submitted in order to facilitate a submittal to and response from IDOT officials.

  • Eastern Corridor Study, Answer Questions, and Receive Input on the Alignments
    EASTERN DSATS CORRIDOR STUDY FINAL October 28, 2009 Executive Summary The DeKalb-Sycamore Area Transportation Study (DSATS) initiated this study to identify four possible alignments for a new north-south transportation corridor to service the eastern DSATS planning area. Initially, nine alternatives were created within termini specified by DSATS using Illinois Department of Transportation geometric design criteria and evaluating current land use, published future land use plans, topography, and floodplain and wetland maps within the study area. The termini of the proposed alignments for the corridor were Plank Road to the north and Gurler Road to the south. The following improvements were proposed for each corridor: a grade separated crossing with the Union Pacific Railroad; structures where the corridor crossed the East Branch Kishwaukee River and Union Ditches 1, 2, or 3; a full access interchange where the corridor intersects Interstate 88; and intersection improvements with the existing roadways. The nine potential alignments for an eastern DSATS corridor were evaluated at a design charrette that was attended by representatives from DSATS, the City of DeKalb, the City of Sycamore, the Town of Cortland, the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority, and the DeKalb County Highway Department. The alignments were ranked against screening criteria that included mobility, local access, compatibility with local land use plans, encouragement of economic development, regional access and system connectivity, environmental impacts, farmland impacts, and use of existing alignments. Based on the group discussion and the total scores obtained, several alignments were selected for further analysis. The Illinois Department of Transportation, Illinois State Toll Highway Authority and the Union Pacific Railroad were contacted to obtain their feedback on the eastern DSATS corridor study.
