be possible to resolve the problems soon.
PUBLIC/TRAFFIC COMMISSION MEETING
DECEMBER 7,1995
Traffic Engineer Lauber recommended that Agenda Item 7 - MarQarita Road and Cara Way -
Rancho Villa Del Mar Condominiums be discussed out of sequence in order for the public to
participate at an earlier point in the meeting.
7. Mar~larita Road and Cara Way - Rancho Villa Del Mar Condominiums
Battalion Chief Brodowski reported that the Fire Department had been contacted by the
residents of Rancho Villa Del Mar Condominiums to ask that the City approve
modification of the emergency vehicle access, in order for residents to park close to
their homes to thwart auto damage and theft.
Chairman Johnson opened for public comments at 8:00 P.M.
Jan Conard, 29515 Cara Way, expressed concern that residents' vehicles are
parked too far away to be safe from vandalism. She requested modification to
the emergency vehicle parking to allow closer parking for residents. She also
asked the Commission for any assistance they could give toward resolution of
these concerns.
Fire Chief Brodowski spoke in sympathy with the residents of the condominiums,
however, he stated he could not support modifications to the emergency vehicle
access.
Commissioner Guerriero recommended the Home Owners' Association might be of
some assistance to the residents.
Chairman Johnson stated that he was sympathetic to the concerns of the residents,
but, could not support modifying the emergency access.
The consensus of the Commission is that the residents should look into enhanced
fencing, extra security patrol or employing a private security company.

Item 2
Proposed Detour for Winchester Road Construction -
Margarita Road to Murrieta Hot Springs Road (Area 1)
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Public/Traffic Safety Commission recommend to the City Council a detour plan alternative that
well best facilitate the construction of Winchester Road (Area 1).
BACKGROUND:
Winchester Road construction plans were approved by Caltrans with Santa Gemdis Bridge phased
construction to allow continuous traffic along Winchester Road. Because of limited funding, safety
concerns and project timing, a local engineering firm has investigated methods to reduce impacts of
construction which include (a) construction of the bridge as one unit, and diverting traffic to Margarita
Road and to Murrieta Hot Springs Road, and (b) an alternative detour route across the Santa Gertrudis
Channel using temporary culverts. Consideration has been given to scheduling the construction of
Winchester Road for timely access to the new Chaparral High School. All alternatives will require that
the intersection of Nicolas Road be dosed to local traffic for a three week period, which will necessitate
routing local traffic through Roripaugh Hills, while the intersection of Nicolas Road is being
reconstructed.
ALTERNATIVE 1 is the approved plan to phase the construction of the Santa Gertrudis Creek Bridge,
and to phase roadway construction, keeping Winchester Road open to through traffic. The advantage of
this alternative is that the improvement plans are already approved by Caltrans. The disadvantages of
this alternative are: the added cost of construction due to phasing of the bridge and roadway; the
increased hazard of back and forth construction traffic detouring along the roadway; the increased traffic
hazard due to the deactivatinn of the traffic signal at Nicolas Road, with continued through traffic on
Winchester Road; and the additional time of construction due to phased construction. Estimated time of
construction using Alternative 1 is eighteen (18) months. Estimated cost of the bridge for Alternative 1
is $1,445,350, and for the detour is $261,935.
ALTERNATIVE 2 would detour through traffic to Margarita Road and Murrieta Hot Springs Road,
which would mean no phased construction of the bridge, and minimal phasing of the roadway.
Winchester Road would be open for local traffic to Nicolas Road for all but the three (3) week period,
when the intersection was reconstructed. It is reasonable to expect that through traffic will avoid
Margarita Road al~er one or two experiences, and will quickly learn to use Murrieta Hot Springs Road
to directly access the freeway. The advantages of Alternative 2 are: cost savings of unphased
construction of the bridge and roadway; reduced traffic hazards due to phased construction and of the
deactivated Nicolas Road traffic signal; reduced traffic through the construction area due to the Margarita
Road detour, and direct use of Murrieta Hot Springs access to the fleeway; and reduced construction
time. The disadvantages of this alternative are: through traffic will be required to adjust to the detour
route; and the increased traffic along Murrieta Hot Springs Road. Estimated construction time for
Alternative 2 is 13 months. The cost of the bridge is estimated at $1,084,013, and the cost of the detour
is $186,815. The signalization of the Margarita Road/Murrieta Hot Springs Road intersection will be
constructed with County Traffic Signal Mitigation Funds.
ALTERNATIVE 3 would detour through traffic around the bridge over a temporary culvert crossing of
the Santa Gertrudis Creek, which would mean no phased construction of the bridge. The advantages of
this alternative would be reduction of the bridge construction time. Disadvantages are: (a) cost of the
detour itself would eliminate any savings of nonphased bridge construction; (b) the culvert crossing could
not convey large storm flows (which might cause reconstruction of the temporary crossing); and (c)
increased traffic hazard due to phased construction, the temporary culvert crossing, and deactivation of
the Nicolas Road signal with full through traffic on Winchester Road. Estimated time of construction
would be reduced to thirteen months due to nonphased bridge construction. Cost of the bridge for
Alternative 3 is $1,084,013, and cost of the detour is $523,935.
The City of Temecula, Department of Public Works has reviewed all alternatives and feels that
Alternative 2 will have more benefits than disadvantages if local traffic concerns are mitigated. Table
"A' summarizes the varying duration, costs, and safety associated with each alternative. Due to the
increase in traffic on Margarita Road, the intersection of Rustic Glen Drive is forecasted to deteriorate
below acceptable levels of service. This location currently meets traffic signal warrants even though it
is at the bottom of the Cities Traffic Signal Priority List. Signalization of this intersection would ensure
safe and efficient operation soon after implementation of the proposed detour.
Even though the complete closure of the intersection of Nicolas Road and Winchester Road is a necessity,
the use of Roripaugh Road as a detour path raises residential safety concerns.
The ADT on Nicolas Road just east of Winchester Road is 6,951 vehicles, per counts taken in 1995
(Please note that Roripaugh Ranch has since been developed and occupied, therefore the volumes have
probably increased since 1995). Also, the existing ADTs on Roripaugh Road are 793 and 2,215 vehicles
just south of Nicolas Road and just east of Winchester Road, respectively. Therefore, Roripaugh Road
will experience an ADT in excess of 9,959 vehicles (6,951 + 793 + 2,215) for three weeks due to the
proposed closure. Roripaugh Road is a two lane paved residential collector and 20 residential lots
directly access it. It is highly recommended that the Commission consider a requirement to pave a
temporary bypass road on the vacant parcel on the southeast corner of Nicolas Road and Winchester
Road.
Staff recommends support for Alternative 2, the Margarita Road/Murrieta Hot Springs detour, with the
following conditions:
That along with the signalization on Murrieta Hot Springs Road at Margarita Road that
the County signalize the intersection of Margarita Road at Rustic Glen Drive.
That the temporary bypass road be created on the southeast corner of Nicolas Road and
Winchester Road to eliminate the three week detour through Roripaugh Hills.

Item 3
Kiwanis Club Sign Proposal
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Public/Traffic Safety Commission consider a proposal from the local Kiwanis Club to supply
public safety signs for City installation.
BACKGROUND:
On November 15, 1995 the Director of Public Works received a letter from the Kiwanis Club of
Temecula Valley regarding safety signs within the public right-of-way. A copy of that letter is attached
and summarized below.
The local Kiwanis Club is looking for guidance in selecting a way to improve safety within Temecula.
One idea they had was to post signs advocating the use of passenger restraint systems in automobiles and
to alert drivers to the presence of children in specific areas. Samples of the two (2) signs have been
supplied to the Traffic Division and will be on display at our meeting.
The Kiwanis Club should be recognized for their contributions to the community in regard to the support
of our seat belt check points and future donations of child safety seats to the Temecula Police Department.
These seats will be placed in patrol units facilitating transport of children by a patrol unit at the scene.
Please keep in mind the studies that show the diminishing return on effectiveness of these types of non-
standard signs. The proponents have been informed that they can certainly post these signs on private
property and that the Commission may have suggestions for other possible programs.

Parking Restriction on Pujol Street
Prepared By:
Ali Moghadam, Assistant Engineer
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Public/Traffic Safety Commission recommend to the City Council adoption of a resolution
establishing a 65 foot "No Parking" zone on Pujol Street south of Sixth Street.
BACKGROUND:
The Traffic Division received a request from a member of the Old Town Redevelopment Advisory
Committee to investigate parking situation on the west side of Pujol Street south of Sixth Street. Pujol
Street south of Sixth Street is approximately 28 feet wide and parked vehicles near the intersection impede
the westbound to southbound left turn movement from Sixth Street to Pujol Street. The 28 foot paved
width allows for an eight (8) foot parking lane and two (2) ten (10) foot travel lanes. Because Pujol
Street in this area is only partially improved, staff can support ten (10) foot minimum travel lanes which
are acceptable only on the straight portion of Pujol Street. The proposed parking restriction will facilitate
the smooth flow of traffic at this intersection, and allow most of the on-street parking to remain.

"All-Way" Stop - Pala Road at Wolf Valley Road
Prepared By:
All Moghadam, Assistant Engineer
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Public/Traffic Safety Commission recommend to the City Council adoption of a resolution
establishing an "All-Way" Stop at the intersection of Pala Road and Wolf Valley Road.
BACKGROUND:
The City received a request to install two (2) additional stop signs on Pala Road at Wolf Valley Road
which would make this intersection an "All-Way" stop. This intersection is located on the south end of
Pala Road just north of the newly opened Pechanga Casino. The easterly leg of Wolf Valley Road is a
secondary access route to the Redhawk Development and is utilized by motorists avoiding SR 79(S)
congestion.
The California Department of Transportation Traffic Manual identifies four (4) criteria for the
consideration of multi-way "Stops" as identified in the City of Temecula "Stop" and "Yield" Sign Warrant
Policy.
1. Minimum Traffic Volumes
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
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
When the 85-percentile approach speed of the major street traffic exceeds 40 miles per
hour, the minimum vehicular warrant is 70 percent of the above requirements.
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 and left-turn collisions as well as right-angle collisions.
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.
Staff has evaluated this location and found the results listed below:
The total vehicular volume entering this intersection during the busiest eight (8) hours
averages 614 as compared to 350 (500 X 70%) needed to meet this warrant.
The combination of vehicular and pedestrian volumes from the minor street averages 157
during the same eight (8) hours as above. The requirement is 140 (200 X 70%).
Four (4) accidents have been reported at this location from January 1, 1994 to December 1,
1995, in which two (2) resulted in injuries. The minimum requirement for this warrant is five
(5).
Since this intersection meets the minimum traffic volumes warrant and Pala Road narrows considerably
through the intersection, staff recommends that the "All-Way" stop installation be implemented at this
location.
FISCAL IMPACT:
"Stop Ahead" Signs @ $125 = $ 125
2 "Stop" Signs @ $125 = 250
2 "Stop" & "Stop Ahead" Legends @ $25 = 100

Speed Limit - Rancho California Road East of Margarita Road and Pala Road
South of SR 79(S)
Prepared By:
Ali Moghadam, Assistant Engineer
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Public/Traffic Safety Commission recommend to the City Council adoption of a resolution
establishing speed limits on Rancho California Road east of Margarita Road and Pala Road South of SR
79(S).
BACKGROUND:
In order to enforce posted speed limits, a Traffic and Engineering Survey must be conducted within a five
(5) year period per Section 40803(c) of the California Vehicle Code (CVC). The Traffic Division has
conducted Traffic and Engineering Surveys to determine the appropriate speed limits for Rancho
California Road east of Margarita Road and Pala Road south of SR 79(S).
Posted speed limits are primarily based on an analysis of prevailing speeds (851h percentile) as measured
in the field. Section 627 of the CVC defines Engineering and Traffic Survey as follows:
Engineering and Traffic Survey
627.(a) "Engineering and traffic survey", as used in this code, means a survey of highway and
traffic conditions in accordance with methods determined by the Department of Transportation
for use by the state and local authorities.
Co) An engineering and traffic survey shall include, among other requirements deemed necessary
by the department, consideration of all of the following:
(1) Prevailing speeds as determined by traffic engineering measurements.
(2) Accident records.
(3) Highway, traffic, and roadside conditions not readily apparent to the driver.

Road south of SR 79(S) do not suggest that a problem exists and therefore, variation from the
851h percentile speed is not justified.
Traffic or roadside conditions that are not readily apparent to the drivers were not observed on
Rancho California Road east of Margarita Road. The section of Pala Road between SR 79(S)
and Clubhouse Drive has a curvalinear alignment with a very old, and narrow bridge and
varying pedestrian activities. This portion is partially improved on reversing sides with varying
roadway widths,

1995 Year End Summary Report
The following reflects the fire suppression, fire prevention, public relations, and
operational planning activity of your fire department for the entire year of 1995.
In January of 1995, the city council approved the new East side fire station with the
direction that a temporary site should be in service by April 1, 1995. Staffing would be to
minimum city standards of three persons on the fire engine per shift. Also in January, the city
participated in a storm watch to monitor the heavy rains and any potential flooding problems. If
problems would have escalated, the city would have activated an emergency operations center to
coordinate with the county emergency services division and work toward solving the flood related
problems.
February saw a major natural gas line broken on Margarita Road just North of Winchester
Road adjacent to the Costco parking lot. A tractor digging on a pipeline project ruptured the high
pressure line. Fire department units closed the area to through traffic to minimize any ignition
sources that could have ignited the gas cloud, and then stood by to provide safety / protection for
the gas company crews who arrived to fix the pipe. Most of the Balloon and Wine festival
planning meetings were held at Station # 73. Fire department personnel were always a part of the
planning prcr. ess to insure adequate fire and medical safety provisions during the event. Linfield
School was chosen as the site for the temporary fire station on the East side of the freeway. Fire
department staff began evaluating the types of facilities to use for the temporary fire station prior
to submitting proposals to city staff for further evaluation.
In March, emphasis was on getting the new fire station, designated Fire Station/t84, ready
to open on April 1st. as per city council direction. This task was completed from beginning to end
in 2 1/2 months. New Engine # 84 was delivered to the City the last week in March and was
outfitted with the standard complement of equipment. The City of Temecula saved some
~Prlrlted on Recycled Paper
significant money by piggybacking it's fire engine purchase onto the county' s large fire engine
order of 17 fire engines. Balloon and Wine festival planning meetings continued at Station # 73.
April 1, 1995: the new temporary fire station was placed into service and a dedication
ceremony was held that day. The East side Station consists of two 12' X 40' modular buildings
with a roofed structure between them in which to park the new fire engine. This station will serve
the community until the permanent, Parkview Fire Station is completed, when the crew will re-
locate to the permanent facility.
One of the first grass fires of the season in Temecula occurred in May. It was five acres
of light grass on Margarita Road near Rustic Glen, NE of Costco. Due to all of the development
activity, temporary help was hired to assist our regular fire department planning and engineering
staff catch up on all the plans checks and approvals coming through their office at City Hall.
Within two weeks, all plans were caught up. Also in May, the new fire Engine 12 was delivered
and placed into service. Station #12 is the station adjacent to Sam Hicks Park. Old El2 twelve
was m-named E12a and is now assigned to the Temecula Valley Volunteer Company, replacing
the 1970's vintage fire engine the volunteers operated for so many years.
June saw E84 and Truck 73 attend the IWHS Youth Olympics, providing safety
information and tours of the vehicles and their equipment. On June 2, 1995, the strip mall
adjacent to the Sizzler restaurant erupted into flames requiring three full alarms to insure the ~re's
containment to the building of origin and it's extinguishment. Two new fire captains were
appo'mted to vacancies wilttin our City. Both FC Bertil Bjorkiund and FC lira Garrett transferred
from the San Diego CDF Ranger Unit. Their experience and dedication has been a positive
addition to the City of Temecula Fire Services. Bert is assigned to Station # 84, and Jim to Station
# 12. A drug lab was discovered in a residence on Hill 27 and fire department personnel were
called to stand by and to treat several police officers who were experiencing burning eyes and
hands from possible exposure to drug lab chemicals. Personnel from the Public Traffic and Safety
Commission, police department, fire department, RCOFD emergency services division, and city
manager's office met to plan the first Temecula Public Safety Expo for November 4, 1995. The
purpose of the Expo is to encourage public awareness and education of disaster preparedness,
build positive relationships between the public and public agency employees, and to allow the
taxpayers to see what type of equipment and services they receive for their tax money. June was
the time when the coming year's fire prevention education plan was finalized for the City as well.
The final new fire engine, E73, was delivered in June. With it's arrival, all three City fire stations
had brand new first line fire engines to serve the community.
July and August were very active fife months during the fire season, but most of the fires
were all around the City of Temecula, and very few were actually in Temecula. We did have a
135 acre fire start on the top of the hills just West of Pujol Street however. This fire threatened
homes along Pujol in Old Town as it burned down hill toward the City. With additional CDF /
Riverside County fire engines and special equipment such as bull dozers and aircraft, all the
buildings were saved from fire damage and the fire was extinguished. This fire was particularly
spectacular since it occurred during late afternoon hours as the sun was setting. Fire department
personnel provided fire safety / extinguisher training to employees of ACS and the Southwest
Justice Center. This amounted to over seventy five civilians receiving the training.
There was a two to three acre brush fire just North of Nicolas Road that threatened several
homes in September this year. Livestock were also threatened but none were injured. The fire was
caused by an electrical power line that broke and fell to the ground, it's sparks igniting the grass.
Fire department personnel aFtended the City sponsored customer service class. This is an effort
by the City of Temecula to insure all employees who may have contact with the public can
efficiently assist and respond to citizen questions, requests, and concerns. RCOFD Emergency
Services Division's Mary Moreland trained additional City staff on the City Disaster Plan. The
French Valley Fire Station # 83 was opened in September. Staffing is by volunteer firefighters at
this time. The station was opened in conjunction with the French Valley Air Show weekend. Over
one thousand students and citizens were contacted by the fire department this month through
school programs, station tours, a job fair, and the air show. In September, Jim Barton was
promoted to Division Chief of the Southwest Division of the CDF / Riverside County Fire
Department. A portion of his duties includes being the fire department head at Temecula Staff
meetings and interacting with City staff and council as the fire department representative.
At this point, we had made it to October, and there still were no significant brush fires
within the City. Fire season remained quite active all around us however. Over three hundred and
fifty people working at Family Fitness Center, Tower Plaza, and other adjacent areas received
training on fire safety from fire department personnel. In addition, eighty three people received
fire safety and career development information at the Temecula Valley Christian School as well.
October is a very busy event month for the fire department. The department provided inspection
and stand by services for the Tractor Races, Pumpkin Run, and Harley Davidson Hog Run. Fire
department personnel attended the Commissioners Appreciation Dinner at the Temecula Creek
Inn.
In November, the fire department participated in two large scale disaster drills. The first
was a simulated earthquake at the Lake Skinner Filtration Plant. There was a propane fire,
confined space rescue, and multi-casualty simulation which our personnel handled. The second
drill was the annual disaster preparation drill at the Inland Valley Regional Medical Center.
Simulated evacuations, fire problems, etc. were a good chance to try out the cooperative planning
between the Center and the Fire Department. All paid and volunteer personnel received training
on the use of automatic de~brillators. These devices will be obtained in 1996 and be assigned to
all first roll fire units to aid in the survival of heart related patient incidents. November 4th was
the first annual Public Safety Expo. The event was judged a success and helped provide a positive
setting for increasing public safety awareness in the community.
December, we collected and provided toys for the needy in our community. Over thirty
five people went on station tours this month. We responded to a chimney fire in a beautiful two
story house in the wine country and was able to stop the fire spread in the walls and ceiling before
it involved the entire house. Christmas day, there was another fire in wine country, and this one
sustained fire damage due to the fire being well established upon our arrival.
The Temecula Fire Services personnel responded to four thousand, two hundred, and
fifty (4,250) e~nergency calls in 1995. This is an increase of about 17.4% over the same
period in calendar year 1994. Total crew runs to structure fires increased 106%, medicals aids
increased 13.6 %, traffic collisions increased 10%, and false alarms increased the least, at only
1% over 1994. There was only one significant reduction, and that was the FMS incident. Fire
Menace Standbys decreased by 17% from last year. FMS incidents are a classification which
includes gas leaks, hazardous materials incidents, electrical hazards, or any type of incident that
has a potential to ignite and become a fire or escalate into a serious life safety issue.
Station personnel were participants in over fifty five public / community activities. An
additional thirty four school programs, consisting of fire prevention and safety messages were
given at local schools. Fire station personnel conducted a total of two thousand, three hundred,
and twenty seven (2,327) fire and life safety inspections in local commercial businesses within our
City response areas. The inspections insure safe house keeping and proper that safety exits, etc.
are available in all businesses in town. Our State funded fire crews conducted about seven hundred
and sixty five fire safe dooryard (weed abatement) inspections in the State Responsibility Area,
(county areas adjacent to the city limits), to eliminate fire spread and loss potential. These
inspections in the adjacent county areas also help prevent fire spread into the City limits from fires
originating in the county areas. The fire department planning and engineering staff, our two
people located in City Hall in the building and safety section, conducted a total of three hundred
and seventy one (371) plans checks and one thousand, and ninety eight (1,098) field inspections
including new construction, tenant improvements, and changes of occupancy inspections.
The year 1995 has been a year of growth and increased activity. To this point, our five
year average incident increase per year was 9.4% per year. With the 17.4% increase of 1995, the
6 year average increase is now around 13% per year. As always, we have endeavored to provide
a balanced and well planned approach to all Temecula Fire Service activities. Training has been
emphasized repeatedly, though it is sometimes difficult to find adequate areas to train with the fire
engines and truck where we are not in the way or limited to where and how much water we may
pump during our training evolutions. Fire inspections, both by fire station personnel and city hail
fire department inspectors continue on a continual basis to insure the safety of building tenants and
visitors. Public relations, educational and community events continue as a high priority for all fire
personnel. We wish the community to be aware of all our efforts and our concern for their safety.
We desire that all citizens be prepared for any emergency or disaster that may affect the City of
Temecula. They need to be a part of the public sector response team for our community. We
seriously investigate questionable fire causes and origins in order to determine whether they are
accidental or possibly arson caused.
In conclusion, it is our intent to be much more than a fire department. That is why we
refer to our operations as the Temecula Fire Services. We will continue to strive to be responsive
to the City government and the citizens of Temecula. We plan on continuing efforts to be as
efficient and cost effective as possible consistent with proper and professional fire services
practices. We wish to thank you all for your continued and valued support.

December 1995 Activity Report
The following reflects the monthly fire suppression and fire prevention activity of your fire
department for the month of December, 1995.
One aspect of our department which is vital for reliable fire department services is vehicle
maintenance and safety. Every year at this time, the CDF / Riverside County Fire Department
automotive fleet manager meets with the Temecula battalion chief and joinfly they conduct both
a safety and administrative inspection of all fire department vehicles in the Temecula Battalion.
This insures that all regularly scheduled maintenance is being done on a consistent basis by the
field personnel, and that all safety equipment and featores on all vehicles are working correctly.
It is also an excellent opportunity to find any potential mechanical and warranty problems and get
them fixed before they get too serious or go out of factory warranty.
The battalion was involved in the Christmas spirit by collecting toys and insuring they were
distributed to needy families and / or worthy programs that assist the needy. Under the Channel
7 "Sparks of Love" program, we gathered many wonderful toys this year for our local kids.
A total of about 35 citizens received station tours and fire safety information at the fire stations
this month. Commercial safety inspections of businesses in Temecula were reduced somewhat to
allow the vendors to conduct business during the busy holiday season without interruption from
US.
There were some significant emergency calls this month. We responded to two kitchen fires
in December. Both were extinguished quickly and damage was minimal. A beautiful two story
home in the wine country had a chimney fire that extended into the ceiling and walls of the second
floor bedroom. Our fire crews had to strip a portion of the roof, ceiling, and walls to expose and
extinguish the fire that was silently creeping through the hidden spaces. If the owner had called
us ten or fifteen minutes later, the entire second floor of the house would probably have been
fully involved in fire. As it was, we were able to minimize damage, clean up the master bedroom,
and even install some plastic sheeting over the exposed roof and wall areas to keep out the weather
before we left. On December 281h, we responded to a single vehicle accident on NB 1-15 at
Highway 79 South. An elderly lady fell asleep at the wheel and crashed into a freeway railing.
The jaws of life were used to extricate her from her mangled vehicle. Also, there was a working
structure fire in the wine country East of Temecula where the house was well involved in fire
upon our first unit' s arrival.
Thank you for your support this past year. We appreciate your interest and input into our
operations. It is a pleasure to serve you.

November 1995 Activity Report
The following reflects the monthly fire suppression and fire prevention activity of your fire
department for the month of November, 1995.
Emphasis was on specialized training for fire personnel this month. In addition to our monthly
multi-company battalion drills, we participated in two separate disaster drills. The first was
sponsored by the Metropolitan Water District and involved the Lake Skinner Filtration Plant. The
disaster was a large earthquake which started a propane fire, caused a confined space rescue in a
below ground vault, and injured many employees which required the fire department to set up a
large triage area for processing the injured people. This was an excellent opportunity to learn more
about the plant operations and baTards, and to practice fire and rescue skills. Later in the month,
some of our personnel participated in the disaster drill at the Inland Valley Regional Medical
Center. We train annually with the Center to allow their personnel to keep their emergency
awareness and skills up as well as promote efficient coordination between fire and hospital
employees. Also, all Temecula Battalion fire personnel, both paid and volunteer, were trained in
the use of the automatic de~brillators. Beginning in 1996, we will be receiving these defibrillators
which will increase the chances of survival of heart attack patients by allowing first on scene
firefighters to assess heart patterns and introduce an electric shock to the patient to help get the
patient' s heart working in a regular rhythm.
On Saturday, November 4, 1995, the City Of Temecula held it's first annual Public Safety
Expo. My estimate on public attendance is 1,000 to 1,500 people. All of the displays,
demonstrations, and activities seemed to be popular with everyone and the fire camp breakfast
prepared by the CDF Norco Conservation Camp received many compliments. It is our intent and
our hope that each year, the prevention and preparedness message will reach more citizens
through the Expe, and that a positive bend between the public and those that serve them is formed
and retained because of the interaction at the Public Safety Expo.
All emergency calls were routine in nature. One home we responded to in the Winchester
Creek tract was full of smoke due to food left cooking on a stove. No one was home at the
residence but alert neighbors called the fire department and a major fire was prevented. Damage
was limited to the cooking utensils. The fire Department removed the smoke from the house and
checked to insure there was no fire extension of fire into the walls adjacent to the stove. Another
fire was reported in the storm drain tunnels beneath Ynez and the Target shopping center.
Someone ignited an old mattress in the tunnel.
Thank you for your continued support of our fire services.
