ARTICLE V. SIGN MAINTENANCE POLICY
The purpose of the sign maintenance policy is to establish and maintain uniform practices concerning sign maintenance for city streets and roadways. The policy is intended to set out the evaluation and assessment method employed by the city for the general maintenance of traffic signage and adequate sign retroreflectivity. The method described herein consists of routine daytime reviews for post or sign misalignment, damage, theft, or deterioration, and a nighttime biennial visual assessment of all signs in a specified area to assure adequate retroreflectivity.
(Ord. No. 10-2012, 8-7-12)
Individual operators and maintenance crews travel the city streets to and from specific work assignments each work day in all parts of the city's service area. Such persons are instructed to report any apparent problems (such as vision obstruction, vandalism, collision damage, or substandard appearing traffic control devices) to the street superintendent, where a maintenance work order for any needed repairs will be initiated. Local police officers who patrol the streets are also instructed to report any traffic control device deficiencies that are observed, including any collision damage. Other public service staff, including meter readers, zoning and parks personnel have also been instructed to report observed traffic control device deficiencies that might be observed during work travels throughout the community.
