Edvalson, Assistant City Manager "'/~',~ April 28, 1994 Item 2 Temecula Neighborhood Emergency Service Team (T-NEST) Program RECOMMENDATION: That the Public/Traffic Safety Commission receive a report on the T-NEST Program. BACKGROUND: The T-NEST Program is designed to organize neighborhoods to respond to immediate needs in the event of natural disaster or local emergency. To do this, neighborhoods, blocks and streets are organized, and participate training offered in emergency operations, communications, first aid, light urban search and rescue, fire behavior and extinguisher handling, and hazardous material recognition. T-NEST was initially launched largely as a volunteer effort in September, 1993 in association with neighborhood watch. Fliers were distributed to homes through the school district soliciting interest in the program. To date, the City has received 42 responses from that limited distribution. Efforts to further implement the program have stalled, while volunteers and staff have struggled to identify and implement the elements required to make the program 8 SUCCESS. Staff has noted that where similar programs have been successful, paid staff has often required to bridge the gap between volunteer contributions of time. Because the City of Temecula contracts with Riverside County for its fire and police services, the role of emergency preparedness coordinator is filled by the Assistant City Manager with responsibility for functional areas in the City's response plans delegated to various department directors. The City does not currently allocate staffing to support the T-NEST program. Staff is currently evaluating the following options: Support the program as a strictly volunteer program in conjunction with neighborhood watch; Seek Council support for a part-time staff position from the fire department to assist the volunteer effort to implement the T-NEST program and conduct public education outreach; 3. Eliminate City support for the program, and re-evaluate in the future. r:\traffic\commissn\agenda\94\0428 04128/941ajp FISCAL IMPACT: Staff anticipates the following fiscal impacts for the coming fiscal year for the outlined options: Option (1) might include monetary support from the City of approximately $6,000 for printing, training and supplies. Option (2) is projected to cost approximately $65,000 with $36,000 in salary, training, and supplies being allocated to T-NEST. Option (3) would require no fiscal contribution.

PAGE 17 ITEM NO. 3 AGENDA REPORT TO: Public/Traffic Safety Commission FROM: Marry Lauber, Traffic Engineer DATE: April 28, 1994 SUBJECT: Item 3 Riverside Transit Agency RTA Bus Route Changes RECOMMENDATION: That the Public/Traffic Safety Commission approve the bus stop changes proposed by the Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) and as modified by staff. BACKGROUND: The Traffic Division of the Public Works Department was informed by the City's Maintenance Superintendent that RTA bus route changes would be implemented on April 4, 1994. Staff immediately contacted RTA regarding any changes proposed. Rudy Kraus with RTA informed me that a major change was planned for April 4, 1994 and that they would submit a letter of request to amend their existing encroachment permit. He requested that changes be tentatively approved because of the adjustments they have already made regarding printed schedules. Mr. Kraus also apologized for the lack of coordination with the City of Temecula. The Traffic Division is currently refining an Encroachment Permit Amendment Procedure specifically for RTA to ensure proper coordination. A representative from the Commission will be invited to preliminary meetings when route changes are proposed. Staff agreed to review their proposal, tentatively approve with only minor adjustments listed below, and then bring items to the April 28, 1994 Public/Traffic Safety Commission meeting for formal approval. The following summary of the changes will be discussed in detail by a RTA representative at the Commission meeting: 2. 3. 4. Splitting Route 23 into two integrated routes Adding service to Murrieta Deleting the Heritage Mobile Park service Deleting Rancho Vista Road service from Margarita Road to Ynez Road Staff has tentatively denied additional stops identified in a letter from RTA as numbers 1,2, 3 and 9 (see attached letter). The first three involve moving stops from one side of the streets to the other. This is because RTA wants to travel in a clockwise loop around Old Town rather than the existing counter-clockwise direction. Number 9 is located on a Caltrans facility and is not our jurisdiction. All stops being deleted seemed reasonable due to low usage except for Rancho Vista Road. Staff feels that due to the recent opening of the Temecula Community Recreation Center, the deletion of Rancho Vista Road service between Margarita Road and Ynez Road is not appropriate. RTA informed me that any future change could add this portion back into the system as part of our coordination. r:\traffic\commissn\agenda%94\0428 04/28/94/ajp FISCAL IMPACT: None Attachments: Letter of Request from RTA Exhibit "A" - Proposed Bus Route 23a Exhibit "B" - Proposed Bus Route 23b r:\traffic\commissn\agende\94\0428 04/281941ajp I TA Mr. A1 Crisp Permits Clerk City of Temecula 43174 Business Park Drive Temecula, CA 92590 Riverside Transit Agency 1825 Third Street R~verslde, CA 92507-3484 BUS [909) 684-0850 FAX [909] 684-1007 Dear Mr. Crisp: The Riverside Transit Agency is in the process of expanding the Route 23 to serve Murrieta and to adjust some of the routing sequences in Temecula.

BACKGROUND: The Maintenance Division of the Public Works Department has recently re-painted existing red curb at an entrance to the Lake Village neighborhood on Via Alturas at Pauba Road. During this routine maintenance, our Maintenance Superintendent extended the existing red curb to ensure clear access for emergency vehicles. This additional parking restriction was objected to by the adjacent property owner. This item was then brought to the attention of the Traffic Division for resolution. The County of Riverside originally past a resolution establishing a "No Parking" zone on Via Alturas from Pauba Road to a point 100 feet northerly. The County then painted red curb to conform with their resolution on both median islands and adjacent curbs as shown on Exhibits "A" and "B". City crews then extended the red curb on the west side to widen the through lane as shown on exhibit "C", The Fire Department was contacted to see if the existing restriction would facilitate the use of emergency vehicles. The criteria identified by Battalion Chief Brodowski was that the minimum roadway width (through lane), for fire department and emergency vehicle access, is 18 feet. The City's insurance carrier was also contacted to be sure our efforts to conform with recommendations from the Fire Department did not have any negative ramifications. Their loss control consultant stated that "it is imperative that the curbing in these areas be painted red to indicate that "no parking is allowed". Staff analyzed both Via Alturas intersections with Pauba Road and found that the existing red curb fell short of meeting the 18 foot criteria. Our research also found that City Ordinance No. 91-16 restricts vehicles from parking on the left side of one-way roadways (medians). Staff recommends extending the existing parking restrictions to create a minimum 18 foot through lane and let the red paint fade away on median islands. The exact limits of our r:\traffic\commissn\agenda\94~0428 04/28/94/ajp purposed restrictions are shown on Exhibits "A" and Exhibit "B". These exhibits also show how the additional restrictions were calculated. Other similar locations in Temecula are currently being reviewed using the Fire Departments criteria. Exhibit "C" These locations will be brought back for your approval after the appropriate investigations have been completed and adjacent residences are notified. Exhibit "C" identifies the extent of our investigation with tentative recommendations.

BACKGROUND: Staff has been requested to install two (2) additional stop signs on Via Norte at Calle Pif~a Colada. The California Department of Transportation Traffic Manual identifies three (3) general criteria for the consideration of multi-way stops. 1. Where traffic signals are warranted and urgently needed, the multi-way stop may be an interim measure that can be installed quickly to control traffic while arrangements are being made for the signal installations. 2. An accident problem, as indicated by five (5) or more reported accidents within a twelve (12) month period of a type susceptible to correction by a multi-way stop installation. Such accidents include right-angle and left-turn collisions as well as right-angle collisions. 3. Minimum traffic volumes a. The total vehicular volume entering the intersection from all approaches must average at least 500 vehicles per hour for any eight (8) hours, of an average day, and b. The combined vehicular and pedestrian volume from the minor street or highway must average at least 200 units per hour for the same eight (8) hours, with an average delay to minor street vehicular traffic of at least 30 seconds per vehicle during the maximum hour, but c. When the 85-percentlie approach speed of the major street traffic exceeds 40 miles per hour, the minimum vehicular volume warrant is 70 percent of the above requirements. r:%traffic\eommissn\agenda\94~0428 04128/941ajp WARRANT CHECK 1. This location has not been evaluated using Traffic Signal Warrants due to the very low vehicular and pedestrian volumes and existing minor delays. 2. The accident history for the intersection of Calle Pir~a Colada and Via Norte revealed no reported accident from January 1, 1991 to March 1, 1994. 3. a. The total average vehicular volume entering this intersection during the busiest eight (8) hours was found to be 208 which is 41.5% of meeting warrant. b. The combination of vehicular and pedestrian volumes from Calle PiCa Colada averaged approximately 64* which is 32% of the warranted amount. c. The above warrants only need to meet 70% of the warrants because the 85- percentlie approach speed is 44.5 MPH which is over 40 MPH. * Includes an estimated maximum of 24 pedestrian crossings during the eight (8) hours. Mortorists stopped on Calle PiCa Colada have an unobstructed view of vehicles and pedestrians approaching from any direction.

BACKGROUND: In order to provide appropriate intersection controls consistent throughout Temecula, the Traffic Division of the Public Works Department has proposed Policy No. 01. This is the first in a series of proposed policies directed at establishing local criteria for items not specifically covered in the California Vehicle Code or the Caltrans Traffic Manual. The goal of these policies is to establish a citywide criteria by which traffic operational improvements can be standardized. The pavement markings and signing of none signalized intersections will be governed by the following policies. POLICY NO. 1 HIERARCHY OF "STOP" CONTROLLED INTERSECTIONS The following policy applies to all stop or yield controlled intersections. Prior to installing any controls, each location must be approved by the Temecula City Council. 1. Intersection between a single cul-de-sac and local streets, should have: a. A 30" yield sign (these signs are proposed to reinforced the recent change to the vehicle code that requires drivers on the stem of a "T" intersection to yield to the through traffic.) or; b. A 30" stop sign and; c. A 12" limit line 2. Intersections between two (2) local streets, should have; a. A standard 30" stop sign b. A 12" limit line r:\traffic\commissn\agenda\94\0428 041281941ajp 3. Intersections between local streets and collector streets, the local street should have; a. A standard 30" stop sign and; b. A 12" limit line and; c. An 8' metric stop legend 4. Intersection between all streets and arterial streets, should have; a. An oversized 36" stop sign and; b. A 12" limit line and; c. An 8' metric stop legend This criteria is graphically shown on Exhibit "1 ". Note: All signs must be constructed using high intensity reflective sheeting.

The following report reflects the Part I Crimes, Traffic Activity, and miscellaneous activity occurring in the City of Temecula during February and March 1994. As in past monthly reports the Part One Stats are broken down by individual districts within the City. This provides a greater understanding of the criminal activity within the City for police staff deployment and for Council/Commission interest. During both months burglary was on the rise, with some decline in March from February. Some of the increase can be attributed to the number of shoplifters that are arrested for shoplifting and charged with burglary. When a person enters into a store with the intent to steal the charge is burglary. About ten of the burglaries were from model homes located in tracts that are under construction. The tow fee collection is averaging about three a day. There has not been a great deal of complaint from the persons paying the fee. There has been increased activity with the labor dispute involving drywall workers. To this point there has not been reported violence or vandalism. Mesa Homes has been more than willing to meet the needs of the strikers while maintaining a safe work site. POLICE ACTIVITY REPORT MARCH AND FEBRUARY 1994 PAGE TWO The community Service Officers have nearly doubled the number of parking citations issued. The number of cars for sale has decreased accordingly. Attached is an article that C.S.O. Fanene completed for the Chamber's monthly newsletter. Lynn has done an outstanding job with this project. The results are showing in the number of businesses obtaining licenses. [rlll,il~llllll[llilNl~,1jl411~,l ~ TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS LEAD TO hIGH COSTS FOR EMPLOYERS Traffic accidents cost employers more than $54 billion and nearly 15 million days of lost time a year, according to the California Office of Traffic Safety. The California Chmbcr has actively supported reducing liti- gation and is a strong proponent of implementing a "no fault" standard reducing litigation costs. Just this year, alcohol-related traffic collisions alone cost the California economy about $7.3 billion in property damage, legal fees, medical expenses and workplace costs. Employee pay more than $13,500 per work-related injury, and each work-related employee fatality results in $458,606 in lost wages and benefits. A significant component of traffic accident costs is exces- sive liability in California. It is estimated that a "no fault" standard would save all Californians $4 billion a year. t lnmalchcd Styx'ice& I~xpericnce ADJUSTABLE RATE MORTGAGES While the number of alcohol-related crashes is decreasing, businesses still lose more than $30 million in direct costs because of drank driving.

March showed an overall 8.1% decrease in emergency responses in comparison to February's totals. So far, it appears that our total pre-summer rainfall will be much less than the annual total, thereby increasing the chances for drier vegetative fuels in our meadows and open fields this year. On March 281h, some of our fire units both participated and evaluated the fire safety drill performed at the B.W.I.P plant. This included full evacuation procedures as well. Station tours included a large segment of the local Brownie Troops. April and May should begin to see a significant increase in vegetation fires in our area, weather permitting. We ask all to be careful and insure their yards are cleared for adequate fire safety. J. M.
