400,000.00
750,000.00
Total $6,950,000.00
The Commission requested that staff analyze the most effective method in developing
existing parks and constructing a swimming facility with the monies allocated, and
report back to the Commission.
If the CIP is approved, staff would like to proceed with the hiring of an architect to
design the Community Recreation Center and Sports Park Parking; hire a landscape
architect to design existing park sites; and coordinate with the Finance Department
to develop bond financing for the CIP. Acquisition of land will be coordinated through
the City Manager's office.

INITIAL CITY-WIDE BIKE ROUTE
RECOMMENDATION: That the Parks and Recreation Commission:
Approve an initial city-wide bike route for the City of Temecula.
FISCAL IMPACT.' Estimated cost for the bike route project is $30,000.00. It
is recommended that this project be funded equally by the City's Public Works
Department and the TCSD. The TCSD's share of the project's cost would be
~ 15,000.00.
DISCUSSION: The TCSD will be pursing the development of a twenty (20)
year Parks and Recreation Master Plan that should be completed within the next six
(6) months. This master plan will consider required parks and recreation facilities to
address future needs. This planning document will also develop a city-wide trails
system including bike paths, jogging trails, and equestrian trails.
At the request of members of the Board of Directors, staff has been directed to
develop an interim bike route until a city-wide bike path is finalized. Due to the
condition and width of some of the roads on the proposed bike route, it is not feasible
to paint bike path lines throughout the entire route. Hence, staff is recommended that
signs be posted depicting the bike route in roads not wide enough for painted path
lines, and paint bike lanes on roads with sufficient width.
Staff is also recommending that the TCSD apply for SB 821 funds to assist in
developing the bike route. It is estimated that ~496,000.00 will be available for
Riverside County for FY 1991-92. Application deadline is July 30, 1991. A higher
priority will be given to projects that receive matching funds.
The total estimated costs for the bike route which includes painting of bike lanes on
specific roads; installing approximately 30 signs along the bike route; and road
improvements to Margarita Road is ~30,000.00. It is recommended that the bike
route improvement costs be split equally between the City's Public Works Department
and the TCSD.
The proposed bike route has been reviewed by the Traffic Commission and their
comments have been incorporated into the proposed bike route.
Enclosed are copies of the proposed bike route, the SB 821 Grant Application for FY
1991-92, and the Public Highways Code concerning bike paths and routes.

ELIGIBLE AGENCIES IN RIVERSIDE COUNTY
Jack Reagan, Executive Director ::'L
SUBJECT: FY 1991-92 SB 821 Program - Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities
Section 99233.3 of the State Public Utilities Code (SB 821) sets aside 2 of the Local
Transpol'tation Fund in each County to fund facilities for the exclusive use of pedestrians
and bicyclists. Eligible expenditures are limited to preliminary engineering, right-of-way
acquisition, construction and reconstruction. Proposals for SB 821 funds may be filed by
cities and the County of Riverside. For FY 199t-92, beginning July 1, 1991, it is estimated
that $496,000 will be available.
The Commission has adopted evaluardon criteria with which to rate project proposals and
establish a priority list for the purpose of allocating available funds. The adopted
evaluation criteria is attached. An ad hoc committee consisting of three members Qf beth
the Commission's Technical and Citizens Advisory Committees will be responsible for
evaluating the project proposals in accordance with the adopted criteria (attached).
Local agencies wishing to apply for SB 821 funds must submit their application(s) to the
Commission no tater than July 30, 1991. The following items must be submitted with the
application(S):
O
A project description indicating the nature and type of project proposed,
design considerations, transportation purposes to be served, and pertinent
information indicating the extent'of use by pedestrians and bicycles.
o A project information form (attached).

SB 821 EVALUATION CRITERIA
FACTOR
USE
The extent of potential use of a bicycle of pedestrian facility
is the most important factor. Emphasis of this factor helps
ensure the greatest benefits will be derived from the
expenditure of SB 821 funds. Relative. usage is to be
derived from analysis of trip generators and attractors
adjacent to the project,
SAFETY
Points are awarded on the basis of a project's potential to
correct current Safety problems.
IMPORTANCE AS A TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVE
Points are awarded on the basis of a project's potential to
attract users who would otherwise use an automobile
MISSING LINK OR EXTENSION
Points are awarded to projects that link existing facilities or
are extensions of existing facilities.
MATCHING FUNDS
This factor is used to help ensure that there is local funding
partidpation in the project - not just a application for "free"
money, One point would be awarded for each 5% of total
project cost that is financed by the local agency. (Maximum
points is 10)
POPULATION EQUITY
The purpose of this factor is to help ensure that one
agency does not receive all the funds, The applicant
receives the maximum 10 points if the amount of funds
requested does not exceed what the applicant would
receive if the funds were allocated by population. Year to
year totals are recorded so that an applicant could build up
a "credO'.

Topic 1002 - General Planning
Criteria
1002.1 Introduction
Bicycle travel can be enhanced by improved
maintenance and by upgrading existing roads
used regularly by bicyclists, regardless of
whether or not bikeways are designated. This
effort requires increased attention to the right-
hand portion of roadways where bicyclists are
expected to ride. On new construction, and
major reconstruction projects, adequate width
should be provided to permit shared use by
motorists and bicyclists. On resurfacing pro-
Jects, the entire paved shoulder and traveled
way shall be resurfaced. When a(lding lanes
or turn pockets, a minimum 4-foot shoulder
shall be provided (see Table 302,1), When
placing a roadway edge stripe, sufficient room
outside the stripe should be provided for bicy-
clists. When considering the restriping of
roadways for more traffic lanes, the impact on
bicycle travel should be assessed. These efforts,
to preserve or improve an area for bicyclists to
ride, can benefit motorists as well as bicycllsts.
1002.2 The Role of Bikeways
Bikeways are one element of an effort to im-
prove bicycllng safety and convenience - either
to help accommodate motor vehicle and bicycle
traffic on shared roadways, or to complement
the road system to meet needs not adequately
met by roads.
Off-street bikeways in exclusive corridors
can be effective in providing new recreational
opportunities, or in some instances, desirable
commuter routes. They can also be used to
close gaps where barriers exist to bicycle travel
(e.g., river crossing). On-street bikeways can
serve to enhance safety and convenience, espe-
cially if other commitments are made in con-
Junction with establishment of bikeways, such
as: elimination of parking or increasing road-
way width, elimination of surface irregularities
and roadway obstacles, frequent street sweep-
~IGaWAY DESIGN MANUAL
1000-3
July 1, 1990
(4) Class HI Bikeway (Bike Route). Bike
routes are shared facfiities which serve either
to:
(a) Provide continuity to other bicycle facilities
(usually Class II bikeways); or
(b) Designate preferred routes through high
demand corridors.
AS with bike lanes, designation of bike
routes should indicate to bicyclists that there
are particular advantages to using these mutes
as compared with alternative routes. This
means that responsible agencies have taken
actions to assure that these routes are suitable
as shared routes and will be maintained in a
manner consistent with the needs of bicyclists.
Nonally, bike routes are shared with motor
vehicles. The use of sidewalks as Class HI
bikeways is strongly discouraged.
It is emphasized that the designation of
bikeways as Class I, II and HI should not be
construed as a hierarchy of bikeways; that one
is better than the other. Each class of bikeway
has its appropriate application.
In selecting the proper facffity, an overriding
concern is to assure that the proposed facility
will not encourage or require bicyclists or mo-
torists to operate in a manner that is inconsis-
tent with the rules of the road.
An lxnportant consideration in selecting the
type of facility is continuity. Altertinting seg-
ments of Class I and Class II {or Class HI) bike-
ways along a route are generally incompatible,
as street crossings by blcy~'lt~ts are required
when the route changes character. Also.
wrong-way bicycle travel will occur on the street
beyond the ends of bike paths because of the
inconvenience of having to cross the street.
Topic 1003 - Design Criteria
1003.1 Class I Bikeways
Class I bikeways (bike paths) are facilities
with exclusive right of way, with cross flows by
motorists minimized. Section 2373 of the
Streets and Highways Code describes Class I
bikeways as serving "the exclusive use of bi-
cycles and pedestrians". However, experience
has shown that ff significant pedestrian use is
anticipated, separate facilities for pedestrians
are necessary to minimize conflicts.
Sidewalk facilities are not considered Class I
facfiities because they are primarily intended to
serve pedestrians, generally cannot meet the
design standards for Class I bikeways, and do
not minimize motorist cross flows. See Index
1003.3 for discussion relative to sidewalk bike-
ways.
By State law, motorized bicycles {"mopeds')
are prohibited on bike paths unless authorized
by ordinance or approval of the agency having
Jurisdiction over the path. Likewise, all motor
vehicles are prohibited from bike paths. These
prohibitions can be strengthened by signing.
(1) Widths. The minim~m paved width
for a two-way bike path shall be 8 feet. The
mlnlmslln paved width for a one-way bike
path shall be 5 feet. A minim~m 2-foot wide
graded area shall be provided adjacent to the
pavement (see FiFe 1003.1A). A 3-foot
graded area is recommended. Where the paved
width is wider than the minimum required, the
graded area may be reduced accordingly; how-
ever, the graded area is a desirable feature re-
gardless of the paved width. Development of a
one-way bike path should be undertaken only
after cardul consideration due to the problems
of enforcing one-way operation and the difficul-
ties in maintaining a path of restricted width.
Where heavy bicycle volumes are antici-
pated and/or significant pedestrian traffic is
expected, the paved width of a two-way path
shotrid be greater than 8 feet, preferably 12 feet
or more. Dual use by pedestrians and bicycles
is undesirable, and the two should be separated
wherever possible. Another important factor to
consider in determining the appropriate width
is that bicyclists will tend to ride side by side on
bike paths, necessitating more width for safe
use.
F_,xperience has shown that paved paths less
than 12 feet wide sometimes break up along the
edge as a result of loads from maintenance ve-
hicles.
Where equestrians are expected, a separate
facility should be provided.

(2) Clearance to Obs~'uctions. A min~m~rn
2-foot horizontal clearance to obstructions
shall be provided adjacent to the pavement
(see Figure 1003,1A), A 3-foot clearance is
recommended. Where the paved width is wider
than the mum required, the clearance may
be reduced accordingly; however, an adequate
clearance is desirable regardless of the paved
width. If a wide path is paved contiguous with
a continuous fixed object (e.g., block wall), a 4-
inch white edge stripe, 1-foot from the fixed ob-
Ject, is recommended to minimize the likelihood
of a bicyclist hitting it. The clear width on
structures between ~illngs shall be not less
than 8 feet. It is desirable that the clear width
of structures be equal to the minimum clear
width of the path (i.e., 12 feet).
The vertical clearance to obstructions
across the clear width of the path shah be a
]~inlm~m ors feet.
(3) Str/ping and Sign/r~g. A yellow centerline
stripe may be used to separate opposirxg direc-
t_ions of travel. A centerline stripe is particu-
larly beneficial in the following circumstances:
(a) Where there is heavy use;
{b) On curves with restricted sight distance;
and,
(c) Where the path is unllghted and nighttime
riding is expected. (Refer to Topic 1004 for
signing and striping details.)
(4) IntersecttDns with Highways. Intersec-
tions are a prime consideration in bike path de-
sign. If alternate locations for a bike path are
avafiable, the one with the most favorable inter-
section conditions should be selected.
Where motor vehicle cross traffic and bicycle
traffic is heavy, grade separations are desirable
to eliminate intersection conflicts. Where grade
separations are not feasible, assignment of r~ght
of way by traffic signals should be considered.
Where traffic is not heavy, stop or yield signs for
bicyclists may suffice.
When crossing an arterial street, the cross-
ing should either occur at the pedestrian
crossing, where motorists can be expected to
stop, or at a location completely out of the in-
lluence of any intersection to permit adequate
opportunity for bicyclists to see turning vehi-
cles. When crossing at midblock locations,
right of way should be assigned by devices such
as yield signs, stop signs, or traffic signals
which can be activated by bicyclists. Even
when crossing within or adjacent to the pedes-
trian crossing, stop or yield signs for bicyclists
should be placed to minimize potential for con-
fiict resulting from turning autos. Where bike
path signs are visible to approaching auto traf-
fic, they should be shielded to avoid confusion.
In some cases, Bike Xing signs may be placed
in advance of the crossing to alert motorists.
Ramps should be installed in the curbs, to pre-
serve the utility of the bike path.
(5) Separation Between Bike Paths and
Highways. A wide separation is recommended
between bike paths and adjacent highways (see
Figure 1003.1B). Bike paths closer than 5
feet from the edge of the traveled way shall
include a physicel barrier to prevent bicy-
clists from encroaching onto the highway,
Suitable ban*lers could include chain link
fences or dense shrubs. Low barriers (e.g.,
dikes, raised traffic bars) next to a highway are
not recommended because bicycllsts could fall
over them and into oncoming automobfie traffic.
In instances where there is danger of motorists
encroaching into the bike path, a positive bar-
rier (e.g., concrete barrier, steel guardrafting)
should be provided. See Index 1003.6 for crite-
ria relative to bike paths carried over highway
bridges.
Bike paths immediately adjacent to streets
and highways are not recommended. They
should not be considered a substitute for the
street, because many bicyclists will find it less
convenient to ride on these types of facilities as
compared with the streets, particularly for util-
ity trips.
(6) Bike Paths in the Medfi:~n of Highways.
As a general rule, bike paths in the median of
highways are not recommended because they
require movements contrary to normal rules of
the road. Specific problems with such facilities
include:
(a) Blcyclist right turns from the center of
roadways are unnatural for bicyclists and
confusing to motorists.
(b) Proper bicycliat movements through inter-
sections with signals are unclear.
(c) Left-tung motorists must cross one di-
rection of motor vehicle traffic and two di-

Bike lane stripes should be placed a con-
stant distance from the outside motor vehicle
lane. Bike lanes with parking permitted (11 ft
to 13 ft between the bike lane line and the curb)
should not be directed toward the curb at inter-
sections or localized areas where parking is
prohibited. Such a practice prevents bicyclists
from following a straight course. Where transi-
tions from one type of bike lane to another are
necessary, smooth tapers should be provided.
(3) Intersection Destga Most auto/bicycle
accidents occur at intersections. For this rea-
son, bikeway design at intersections should be
accomplished in a manner that will minimize
confusion by motorists and bicyclists, and will
permit both to operate in accordance with the
normal rules of the road.
Figure 1003.2B illustrates a typical inter-
section of multilane streets, with bike lanes on
all approaches. Some common movements of
motor vehicles and bicycles are shown. A
prevalent type of accident involves straight-
through bicycle traffic and right-turning mo-
torists. Left-turning bicyclists also have prob-
lems, as the bike lane is on the right side of the
street, and bicyclists have to cross the path of
cars traveling in both directions. Some bicy-
clists are proficient enough to merge across one
or more lanes of Irdttic, to use the inside lane or
left-turn lane provided for motor vehicles. How-
ever, there are many who dO not feel corol'ort-
able making this maneuver. They have the op-
tion of rnakirg a two-legged left turn by riding
along a course ~trnllar to that followed by
pedestrians, as shown in the diagram. Young
ch~dren will oftevttrnes prefer to dismount and
change directions by walking their bike in the
c~lk
At intersections where there is a bike lane
and traffic-actuated signal, installation of bicy-
cle-sensitive detectors within the bike lane is
desirable. Push bution detectors are not as
satisfactox~r as those located in the pavement
because the cyclist must stop to actuate the
push button. It is also desirable that detectors
in left-turn lanes be sensitive enough to detect
bicycles (see Chapter 9 of the Trat~.c Manual
and Standard Plans for bicycle-sensitive detec-
tor designs).
At intersections (without bike lanes) with
significant bicycle use and a traffic-actuated
signal, it is desirable to install detectors that
are sensitive enough to detect bicycles.
Figure 1003.2C illustrates recommended
striping patterns for bike lanes crossing a mo-
torist right-turn-only lane. When confronted
with such intersections, bicyclists will have to
merge with right-turning motorists, Since bi-
cyclists are typically traveling at speeds less
than motorists, they should signal and merge
where there is sufficient gap in right-turning
traffic, rather than at any predetermined lo-
cation. For this reason, it is recommended that
either all delineation be dropped at the ap-
proach of the right-turn lane (or off-ramp), or
that a single, dashed bike-lane line be extended
at a fiat angle across the right-turn lane. A pair
of parallel lines (delineating a bike lane cross-
ingl to channel the bike merge is not recom-
mended, as bicyclists will be encouraged to
cross at a predetermined location, rather than
when there is a safe gap in right-turning traffic.
Also, some bicyclists are apt to assume they
have the right of way, and may not check for
right-tag motor vehicle traffic.
A dashed line across the right-turn-only
lane is not recommended on extremely long
lanes, or where there are double right-turn-only
lanes. For these types of intersections, all
striping should be dropped to permit Judgment
by the bicyclists to prevail. A Bike Xing sign
may be used to warn motorists of the potential
for bicycltsts crossing their path.
1003.3 Class n-r BLkewalm
Class HI bikeways {bike mutes) are intended
to provide continuity to the bikeway system.
Bike mutes are established along through
routes not served by Class I or H bikeways, or to
connect discontinuous segments of bikeway
(normally bike lanes). Class HI facilities are
shared facilities, either with motor vehicles on
the street, or with pedestrians on sidewalks,
and in either case bicycle usage is secondary.
Class HI facffities are established by placing
Bike Route signs along roadways.
Milntrnum widths for Class III bikeways are
not presented, as the acceptable width is de-
pendent on many factors, including the volume
and character of vehicular traffic on the road,
typical speeds, vertical and horizontal align-
ment, sight distance, and parking conditions.

1003.4 Bicycles on Freeways
In some instances, bicyclists are permitted
on freeways. Seldom would a freeway be signed
or striped as a bikeway, but it can be opened for
use ff it meets certain criteria, Essentially, the
criteria involve assessing the safety and conve-
nience of the freeway as compared with avail-
able alternate mutes. If a reasonable alternate
route exists, it would normally be unnecessary
to open the freeway. However, ff the alternate
route Is inconvenient (e.g., it involves substan-
tial out of direction travel) and/or is considered
unsuitable for bicycle travel (e.g., high-speed
traffic, no paved shoulders, poor sight distance,
etc.), the freeway may be a better alternative for
blcyclists. However, a freeway should not be
opened to bicycle use ff it Is determined to be
incompatible (e.g., narrow lanes, no shoulders,
freeway-to-freeway interchanges, etc.). Nor-
really, freeways in urban areas will have
characteristics that make it lnfeasible to permit
bicycle use. Where no reasonable alternative
exists within a freeway corridor, development of
a separate bike path should be considered ff
dictated by demand.
When blcycllsts are permitted on segraents
of freeway, it will be necessary to modify and
supplement freeway regulato~r signs, particu-
larly those at freeway ramp entrances (see
Chapter 4 of the Traffic Manual).
1003.5 MulUpu~os~ RecreaUonal Trali8
In some instances, it may be appropriate for
recreational agencies to develop multipurpose
recreational trails - for hikers, Joggers, equestri-
ans, bicyclIsts, etc. Many of these trails will not
be paved and will not meet the standards for
Class I bikeways. As such, these facfiities
should not be signed as bikeways. Rather, they
should be designated as recreational trails (or
similar designation), along with regulatory
signing to restrict motor vehicles, as appropri-
ate. If recreational trails are to serve primarily
bicycle travel, they should be developed in ac-
cordance with standards for Class I bikeways.
1003.6 Miscellaneous Bikeway Criteria
The following are miscellaneous bikeway
criteria which should be followed to the extent
pertinent to Class I, II and III bikeways, Some,
by their very nature, will not apply to all classes
of bikeway. Many of the criteria are important
to consider on any highway where bicycle travel
is expected, without regard to whether or not
bikeways are establIshed.
(I) Bridges. Bikeways on highway bridges
must be carefully coordinated with approach
bikeways to make sure that all elements are
compatible. For example, bicycle traffic bound
in opposite directions is best accommodated by
bike lanes on each side of a highway. In such
cases, a two-way bike path on one side of a
bridge would normally be inappropriate, as one
direction of bicycle traffic would be required to
cross the highway at grade twice to get to and
from the bridge bike path. Because of the in-
convenience, many bicycllsts will be encouraged
to ride on the wrong side of the highway beyond
the bridge termlni.
The following criteria apply to a two-way
bike path on one side of a highway bridge:
(a) The bikeway approach to the bridge should
be by way of a separate two-way facility for
the reason explained above.
(b) A physical separation, such as a chain
link fence or railing, shall be provided to
offset the adverse effects of having bicy-
cles traveling agsiniJt motor vehicle traf-
fic. The physical separation should be de-
signed to miv~rntze fixed end hazards to
motor vehicles and if the bridge Is an
terehange structure, to minimize sight dIs-
tance restrictions at ramp intersections.
It is recommended that bikeway bridge
r~tltngs or fences placed between traffic lanes
and bikeways be at least 4.5 feet high to min-
imize the likelihood of bicyclists falling over the
railings. Standard bridge l~il/ngS which are
lower than 4.5 feet can be retrofitted with
lightweight upper rntllngS or chain link fence
suitable to restrain bicyclists.
~eparate highway overcrossing structures
for bikeway traffic shall conform to Calms'
standard pedestrian overcrossing design
lading of 85 pounds per square foot. The
minimxsm clear width 8hall be the paved
width of the approach bikeway. If pedestrians
are to use the structure, additional width is
recommended.
(2) Surface Qualit~j. The surface to be used
by bicyclIsts should be smooth, free of potholes,
HIGuwAY DESIGN MANUAL
1000-19
July 1, 1990
in Figure 1003.6B. Signs, reflectors, diagonal
black and yellow makings, or other treatments
will be appropriate in other instances to alert
blcyclists to potential hazards.
(6) Lighting. Bikeway lighting should be
considered along routes where nighttime riding
is expected. This is particularly important for
bike paths serving as commuter routes, such as
paths leading to colleges. Adequate lighting Is
also important at bike path crossings of streets
and for underpasses. Non'nally, on-street bike-
ways will be adequately lighted if street lights
exist.

Devices
1004.1 Introduction
Per Section 2376 of the Streets and ~i,~h-
~V~}'I Cod. e, unlfom signs, mmPktn~l, and
trsmc control devices shall be used. As such
this section is m~ndatory, except where per-
missive language is used. See the Traffic Man-
ual for detailed specifications.
1004.2 Bike Path (Class I)
An optional 4-inch yellow stripe may be
placed to separate opposing directions of travel.
A 3-foot stripe with a 9-foot space is the rec-
ommended striping pattern, but may be revised,
depending on the situation.
Standard regulatory, warning, and guide
signs used on highways may be used on bike
paths, as appropriate {and may be sealed down
in size). Special regulatory, warning, and guide
signs may also be used to meet specific needs.
White painted word (or symbol) warning
markings on the pavement may be used as an
effective means of alerting bicyclists to ap-
proaching hazards, such as sharp curves, bar-
rier posts, etc.
1004.3 Bike Lanes (Class I~
Bike lanes require standard signing and
pavement markings as shown on Figure 1004.3.
The R81 bike lane sign shall be placed at
the beginning of all bike lanes, on the far
side of every arterial street intersection, at
all major changes in direction. and at maxi-
mum half-mfie intervals.
Bike lane pavement markings shall be
placed on the far side of each intersection,
and may be placed at other locations as de-
sired.
Raised pavement markers or other raised
barriers shall not be used to delineate bike
lanes, Also, thermopiastic paint shall not be
used for pavement marking, as the paint sur-
face is extremely slippery when wet.
The G93 Bike Route sign may also be used
along bike lanes, but its primary purpose
should be to provide directional signing and
destination signing where necessary. A prollf-
eration of Bike Route signs along signed and
striped bike lanes serves no useful purpose.
Many signs on the roadway also will apply
to bicyclists in bike lanes. Standard regulatory,
warning, and guide signs used specifically in
conjunction with bike lanes are shown in
Chapter 4 of the Traffic Manual.
1004.4 Bike Routes (Class
Bike routes are shared routes and do not
require pavement markings. In soroe instances,
a 4-inch white edge stripe separating the traffic
lanes from the shoulder can be helpful in pro-
vidlng for safer shared use. This practice is
particularly applicable on rural highways, and
on major arterials in urban areas where there is
no vehicle parking.
Bike routes are established through place-
ment of the G93 Bike Route sign. Bike route
signs are to be placed periodically along the
route. At changes in action, the bike route
signs are supplemented by G33 direcUonal
rows. Typical bike route signing is shown on
Figure 1004.4. The figure shows how des-
tLnation signing, through application of a spe-
cial plate, can make the Bike Route sign more
functional for the bicyclist. This type of signing
is recommended when a bike route leads to a
high deroand destination (e.g., downtown. col-
lege, etc.).
Many signs on the roadway also will apply
to bicyclists. Standard warning and guide signs
used specifically in conjunction with bike routes
are shown in Chapter 4 of the Traffic Manual.

RECOMMENDATION: That the Parks and Recreation Commission:
1. Authorize the installation of one (1) additional light pole on the upper Rancho Vista
field at Sports Park.
2. Deny request to paint tops of ballfield lights at Sports Park.
FISCAL IMPACT.'
Cost to install one (1) additional light pole is 816,000.00.
DISCUSSION: The installation of the one (1) additional light pole on the
upper Rancho Vista field will allow youth and adults the ability to play night soccer
games. Unencumbered funds exist within the account to Phase I of the Sports Park
Lighting Project. 8225,000.00 was budgeted for this project and the bid was
awarded at 8182,000.00.
The estimated cost to paint the tops of the ballfield light poles could easily exceed
830,000.00. According to Ron Reed, the City's contracted electrical engineer, and
Assured Electrical, electrical contractor for Phase I, the light pole will oxidize by the
sun light with eight (8) months and no light will reflect from the poles. Staff has
visited the high slope areas on Starlight Ridge during the noon hour and see no visual
affects of the light poles.
