I am totally devastated that we have streets with no traffic enforcement on
them. I mean people can not call anyone in the state to help stop speeders and
people from running stop signs. I live on such a street and I Have gone
through the following agencies for help to no avail:
Local Sheriff Department
Local Highway patrol
County Road Department
County Traffic Department
County Boad of Supervisors (Walt Abrahams)
The builder of the development (U.S. Homes)
State senator's office (Mary Burgerson)
Governor's office
Governor's office of local law enforcement (Paul Zelfner)
Channel ? on your side
The Californian Newspaper
AFter cver 9 months of fighting to prevent someone from getting killed I find
ou[ there is a loophole in the law and no one will hel~ to make our lives safe.
It is good to hear and read that people like our assembly woman is more
interested in naming a freeway than making our streets safe. I can not beleive
this and I am totally devastated. Who cares about a name.
Could someone please tell me something other than people have to get killed
before something will be done? In this time one kid was hit and paralized by a
pick uo truck doing over 60 MPH in a 25 MPH zone.
We have stop signs that people run and when you yell at them they just give you
the finger. There is no police to call.
I would like to warn every homeowner or prospective homeowner in the county of
Riverside to be aware that you have no police traffic protection unless your
street is admitted into the county road system. I mean not just dedicated for
public use but it must be in the system. This could take as much as a year or
two. That means you live with no traffic protection all that time. Be aware
IF anyone would like to help or change this feel free to contact me.
thinks I am not telling the truth feel free to check all my work
running this down.
If anyone
I did on
i sincerely hope new home buyers will check this out and I hope someone will do
some~hing before some child is killed. I can not believe I live on a street in
the United States of America where I can not get any police traffic protection
for my family or neighbors.
Thanks for listen >_~~ ~_

Dear Council Members: ,
My name is Knox Johnson and I live at 29681 Avenida del Sol, Temecula (Meadow-
view). I would like to submit my name for consideration for an appoinement
to the Temecula Traffic Commission.
I have lived at the above address since August of 1986 and have owned that
property since February 1984. I have been a board member of the Meadowview
Community Association since October of 1986.
I have been an active member of the Traffic Subcommittee of the Temecula
Valley Chamber of Commerce Growth Awareness Committee since October of 1987
as an interested private citizen. I am not a member of the Chamber.
As a member of the Traffic Committee I am very aware of the traffic problems
within the city and have some knowledge of the steps required to resolve
them. I have worked closely with the Riverside County traffic engineers and
other county personnel in obtaining most of the traffic improvements that
have been made over the last two and a quarter years.
I am a retired electronic engineer, retiring from the Northrop Corp. after
working there 35 years. My area of work was in electronic and avionic systems
at both the Electronic and Aircraft Divisions of Northrop. During my career
I held senior technical management positions and for a while I was a director
of avionics programs at the Aircraft Division.
I would bring to the Commission my experience in program/projecct management,
the capability of looking for the best solutions to difficult problems within
the confines of budget requirements and the needs of the community, as well
as the compromises that would be required. Since I am retired, I have the
time to devote to the Traffic Commission.
As I and my family drive in Temecula, I have a strong interest in improving
the traffic and traffic safety problems that we have in this community.
Respectfully,
q/~

Re: Traffic Commission
Dear Mayor Parks and City Council:
I request consideration for appointment to the Traffic
Commission.
I have a long history of community service, including two terms
on the Los Alamitos City Council and two years on the Planning
Commission. As a council member, I served on several regional,
County and League of Cities committees. My reputation is one of
hard work, tenacity and fairness.
My family and I recently purchased a home and moved to Temecula.
I have opened a law practice in this land of opportunity. We
consider Temecula our permanent home. I am anxious to serve my
city in any way possible.
Traffic is obviously the number one problem facing the city. The
solution will require imagination, courage and community
commitment. I would like the opportunity to contribute my share.
Very truly yours,
David A. Lander

My wife and I have been residents of Temecula for almost a year now and we
really enjoy living here. We enjoy what this community already has to offer

the traffic problems our growing city is faced with.
I am an electronics engineer at the Fallbrook Naval Weapons Station. As an
engineer, my responsibilities include reviewing technical proposals and making
recommendations about their cost, feasibility, and need. I feel that my
· engineering experience as well as my commuter insights would be beneficial to

shaping its future.

Dear Councilman Munoz;
I respectfully request that my name be submitted for
consideration in the selection of members for the City of
Temecula's Traffic Commission.
At the request of Mr. Aleshire, I developed a Traffic Congestion
Relief Plan for the City. This plan was implemented with
private funding for a trial period and proved to be highly
successful. I also have been appointed by the City Council to
the Traffic Committee. At the present time, I am serving as the
chairperson of that group. As a member of the community I would
like to continue this involvement as our City grows.
I believe that as a member of the California Highway Patrol for
24 years, I have developed the skills in traffic management and
planning requisite to being successful in this assignment. I
also have developed excellent working relationships with the
Riverside County Road Department and Cal-Trans. I reside in the
Meadowview area of Temecula and as a member of the community,
look forward to assisting our new City in traffic management and
planning.
I have attached a resume and a copy of my Traffic Congestion
Relief Plan for the City Councils' review.
Thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Ron Roberrs

TRAFFIC CONGESTION RELIEF PLAN

TRAFFIC CONGESTION RELIEF PLAN
designed for
City of Temecula
During the past year, the Temecula area has experienced a
dramatic rise in traffic flow on the two major traffic arteries
over the 1-15 Freeway connecting the east and west sides of the
City. The two major highways are Winchester Road (S/R 791 and
Rancho California Road.
The addition of stop signs on both overcrossings to alleviate
freeway off-ramp traffic have also appeared to exacerbate the
congestion during peak commute traffic hours, causing traffic to
back-up to nearby intersections and create near gridlock
conditions.
Morning commute traffic on Winchester Road appears to be
heaviest travelling westbound. Stop and go traffic on
Winchester Road starts east of Ynez Road and continues past the
1-15 Freeway overcrossing to Jefferson Avenue. A ripple effect
causes traffic to also back up on northbound Ynez Road from
Winchester Road.
Morning commute traffic on Rancho California Road appears to be
equally divided. The heaviest traffic in both directions
continues to be east of the freeway due mainly to the close
proximity of Front Street and it's signalized intersection.
Afternoon commute traffic on eastbound Winchester Road backs up
from the 1-15 Freeway overcrossings to several blocks west of
Jefferson Avenue. As the result of northbound traffic on
Jefferson Avenue making right turns onto eastbound Winchester
Road during left turn phases, near gridlock has developed on
eastbound Winchester Road west of Jefferson Avenue. Vehicles
entering Winchester Road from parking lots and side streets add
to this congestion.
Afternoon commute traffic on eastbound Rancho California Road
backs up from the freeway overcrossings to west of Diaz Road.
Traffic on north and southbound Front Street also backup for
some distance due to the congestion on Rancho California Road
between Front Street and the overcrossing. Traffic on Rancho
California Road east of the freeway is usually free flow The
intersection of Ynez Road and Rancho California Road has little
traffic congestion during commute traffic hours.
A study of the traffic patterns on the two congested highways
by this Department has revealed that the optimum solution would
be the replacement of the stop signs at the two overcrossings
with synchronized traffic signals.. This would allow a much
larger volume of traffic to move unrestricted through the
problem areas.
As a short term solution until signals are installed, the
following action plan is recommended.
ACTION STEPS
Traffic Direction
Provide traffic direction at the following locations
during peak traffic hours.
Winchester Road at s/b 1-15 off-ramp.
Winchester Road at n/b 1-15 off-ramp.
Winchester Road at Ynez Road·
Rancho California Road at s/b 1-15 offramp.
Rancho California Road at n/b 1-15 offramp.
ROADWAY MODIFICATIONS
1. Winchester Road.
Create additional westbound traffic lane on
Winchester Road from Ynez Road to west of 1-15.
Add additional left turn lane on westbound
Winchester Road at Jefferson Avenue. By
utilizing a split phase signal, the lane would
be designated as an optional through traffic
lane.
2. Front Street·
Add additional left turn lane from southbound
Front Street to east bound Rancho California
Road.
Lengthen present left turn lane from southbound
Front Street to eastbound Rancho California
Road.
3. Rancho California Road.
Create right turn only traffic lane on
eastbound Rancho California Road at 1-15
southbound onramp.
Create right turn only traffic lane on
westbound Rancho California Road at 1-15
northbound onramp.
Lengthen left turn 1-15 freeway access lanes on
Rancho California Road.
ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Reconditioning and repainting of all roadway markings
in problem area.
Post additional "Right lane must turn right" signs
and road markings on Front Street at Rancho
California Road.
3. Post anti-gridlock warning signs·
Rancho California Road at Front Street·
b. Winchester Road at Jefferson Avenue·
