Requested by: Engineering Division 6.5 RESOLUTION NO. 98 -XX: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR APPROVING THE AUTHORIZATION OF THE SUBMITTAL OF THE FOURTH CYCLE OF USED OIL JANUARY 20, 1998 PAGE 3 OPPORTUNITY GRANT - On November 4, 1997, the City submitted a Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant to the California Integrated Waste Management Board. The proposed grant is to request additional funding to expand the existing used oil collection network to fit local demand. The grant addresses the problems presented by illegal oil dumping including adverse effects on human health and the environment and will expand the number of certified collection centers, and augment school and education and outreach. The opportunity grant would not require any matching funds, and costs to the City are reimbursed through regular (i.e., quarterly) reimbursement requests. The application is in the amount of $134,405. Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 98 -XX: Approving the Authorization of the Submittal of the Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant. Requested by: Engineering Division 6.6 RESOLUTION NO. 98 -XX: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR APPROVING THE DESTRUCTION BY THE CITY CLERK OF CITY RECORDS AND DOCUMENTS WHICH ARE NOT LONGER REQUIRED AS PROVIDED UNDER GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 34090 - Govt. Code Section 34090 provides that, "with the approval of the legislative body by resolution and the written consent of the city attorney the head of the city department may destroy any city record, document, instrument, book or paper, under his charge, without making a copy thereof, after the same is no longer required." Destruction of the materials referenced in Exhibit "A" attached to the proposed resolution is determined necessary in order to conserve storage space, reduce staff time, expense and confusion in handling information and informing the public. Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 98 -XX approving the destruction of certain records which are no longer required as provided by Govt. Code Section 34090. Requested by: City Clerk 6.7 EXTENSION OF VENDOR SERVICES FOR BUS EXCURSION RECREATION PROGRAM - Under the purchasing guidelines, awards for services to a single vendor shall not exceed $10,000 without prior authorization from Council. The City offers 24 bus excursion services for adults and seniors as part of the recreation program each year. Requests JANUARY 20, 1998 PAGE 4 for bids for providing bus excursion services are obtained from vendors prior to each excursion. Two vendors, Inland Empire Stages, Limited and Main Street Tours consistently submit low bids for these services. Expected use of these vendors for the remainder of the 1997/98 FY will result in the $10,000 ceiling being exceeded. In order to continue utilizing the most qualified vendors, at the lowest possible price, it is necessary to extend the $10,000 ceiling for these two vendors. Funds to provide the additional bus excursion services are already included in the 1997/98 FY budget and will have no financial impact on the budget. Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council authorize additional work to be performed by Inland Empire Stages, Ltd. and Main Street Tours for bus excursion services for the 1997/98 FY. The total amount awarded to these vendors for services rendered this FY shall not exceed $26,000 for Inland Empire Stages, Ltd. and $15,000 for Main Street Tours. Requested by: Community Services Division 7. PUBLIC HEARING: 7:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as matters can be heard. 7.1 RESOLUTION NO. 97 -XX: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR APPROVING THE CITY'S COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM FOR FISCAL YEAR 1998-99 - The City has scheduled a public hearing to discuss programs and allocations of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The City will receive $370,762 in federal funds as a participant in the 1998-99 L.A. Urban County CDBG Program. In addition, the City has $135,949 in unallocated funds, for a total allocation of $506,211. The funds may be used for a variety of activities, principally for persons of low and moderate income levels.

ADJOURNMENT: CITY OF DIAMOND BAR INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL VIA: TERRENCE BELANGER, CITY MANAGER j�� J FROM: JAMES DESTEFANO, DEPUTY CITY MAN SUBJECT: DEVELOPMENT CODE, ARTICLES I, II, VI DATE: JANUARY 14, 1998 INTRODUCTION The January 20, 1998 City Council workshop will address Development Code Articles, I, II and VI. These Articles are presented for discussion first because they comprise the foundation of the Code and provide the framework for the remaining Articles. Article I - Purpose and Applicability of Development Code, contains the operational rules and provisions which are applicable to the entire Code. Article II - Zoning Districts and Allowable Land Uses, establishes the city's zoning districts, the permitted uses for residential, commercial, institutional and industrial uses, provides general permit requirements, and general development regulations. Article VI - Definitions, contains the definitions of terms that are used throughout the Development Code. The following is presented as an introduction to these Articles. ARTICLE I, PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY OF DEVELOPMENT CODE: The purpose of the Development Code is to implement the policies of the General Plan. This is done by classifying and regulating the uses of land and structures within the City. Article I describes how this purpose is fulfilled by the Code. The Development Code is applied to all land, structures, subdivisions, and development within the City. Article I describes how the provisions of the Code are applied to property within the City. Article I describes theeg neral requirements for approval of new development and land uses in the City. Permitting requirements for specific land uses are established in subsequent Articles. Projects which are exempt from land use approval requirements, such as fences and walls below 42" in height and interior remodeling are also listed. Certain simple land use activities are exempted from land use approval requirements, in order to streamline and simplify the process for the homeowner, as long as these projects are in compliance with the minimum Code standards. The Rules of Interpretation are a very important Chapter in this Article. Rules for resolving questions about the meaning or applicability of any subsequent part of the Development Code are provided to ensure consistent interpretation of the Code and General Plan. Placing these rules at the beginning of the Code is extremely helpful to the staff and public. Definitive rules for interpreting the fractional results of dividing a parcel of land and determining minimum lot areas and residential densities are critical in determining . if a project is in compliance with Code regulations and can also impact how a developer designs a project. The current Planning and Zoning Code contains Introductory Provisions although these are extremely brief and do not establish the purpose and intent of the Code the way that Article I does. One of the most important differences to note is the generic nature of the existing provisions, which out of necessity were geared toward the needs of the County, rather than the specific needs of one community. ARTICLE II - ZONING DISTRICTS AND ALLOWABLE LAND USES Article II is a critical part of the Development Code. It establishes the zoning districts throughout the City, provides general permit requirements for land uses and activities, establishes the permitted uses for all zoning districts and provides regulations for the development of new and expanded structures. Article II includes the most extensive use of tables of any Article in the Code. These tables consolidate pertinent information regarding permitted uses, development standards and permit requirements. Including this information in tables makes it easy for citizens, developers and staff to access needed information without having to search the text of the Code which is the case with the City's current Code. FA Establishment of Zoning Districts State law requires that local general plans include a land use element including a map establishing land uses designations for all property within the city and its sphere of influence. This requirement is intended to ensure that communities achieve and maintain a logical land use pattern, as well as standards for population density and development intensity which is consistent with community goals and objectives. General plan land use designations establish broad general categories of land uses, density ranges and floor areas ratios, but don't include the specific development regulations contained in zoning regulations, such as setbacks and building heights, or include detailed lists of permitted uses. Extensive analysis and public review went into the creation of a land use map which would achieve a mix of land uses that implement the City's General Plan goals, objectives and strategies. According to the General Plan's Vision Statement these goals include: the retention of the rural community character; the preservation of open space resources; the promotion of viable commercial activity; the provision of well-maintained, attractive housing and the "creation of a community environment which nurtures social, cultural, religious, educational, and recreational opportunities for its citizens." The result of this analysis was the creation of 15 land use designations designed to accommodate residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and recreational land uses. One of the major components of Article II is its establishment of citywide zoning districts. One of the primary ways that Article II implements the General Plan is through the creation of zoning districts that, as required by state law, are consistent with the General Plan Land Use Map. Currently, the City's Zoning Map lists over 30 designations and more are identified in the Code text. Several of these designations have no relevance to the City, such as the Arts and Crafts zone, or the Heavy Manufacturing Zone. Article II eliminates the inapplicable zones, consolidates and modernizes the current designations, and provides for a comprehensive revision of the current zoning designations for consistency with the General Plan. 3 The Development Code establishes 17 zoning designations and one overlay district (more than one zoning district can implement a General Plan land use designation). Generally, the zoning designations correlate directly with the General Plan land use designation. For example, the residential zoning districts are identical to the residential General Plan designations. However, there are three commercial zoning districts which implement the General Commercial (C) land use designation which "provides for regional, freeway oriented, and/or community retail and service commercial uses." These districts include: Neighborhood Commercial (C-1); Community Commercial (C-2); and Regional Commercial (C-3). These designations were created to reflect the existing pattern of commercial land uses in the City and to provide opportunities for appropriate future uses which best serve the needs of the community. For example the C-1 district is intended to be applied to commercial areas close to residential neighborhoods to accommodate uses such as neighborhood markets or delicatessens. Allowed Use and Permit Requirement Tables With the establishment of new zoning districts, a list of permitted land uses for each zoning classification must be prepared. The current Code lists permitted uses in the text of the chapter, under the permit categories. The proposed Code provides these lists in tables, which include land uses by category, permit requirements by district (permitting procedures are addressed in detail in Article IV), and reference notes for land uses (such as daycare centers) subject to specific standards contained in Article III. Because there are multiple goals to be achieved, preparing the land use classification lists has been one of the more complex tasks in the preparation of the Development Code. The first goal is to update the lists in the existing Code which are outdated, do not reflect modern technology (such as telecommunications facilities), modern terminology (such as "warehouse retail"), or current land uses (such as video arcades). The second goal is to respect the existing pattern of land uses and not create unnecessary non -conformities by prohibiting existing uses. The third goal is to implement the General Plan by expanding business opportunities within the community. To assess the existing permitted uses, staff and the consultant team began with the lists contained in the existing Code. These were reviewed and uses that were inappropriate or outdated (such as explosives storage and stamp redemption centers) were eliminated, 4 and uses such as warehouse retail stores were added. In the process of determining which uses were to be added, staff reviewed the Development Codes of numerous other cities. Next, the lists were simplified and consolidated by category, such as general retail, which includes uses ranging from clothing to books stores. The resulting lists attempt to address the needs of the community as .well the prospective business owner, in a simple, yet comprehensive manner. The tables also list the required Planning permit for each land use. Land uses with the symbol "P" are "permitted by right" within the applicable zoning district, subject to a Zoning Clearance. As described in Chapter 22.46 of Article IV, a zoning clearance is used by the Planning Division to determine if a proposed use is allowed in a zoning district and complies with the applicable development standards. This process is handled at the Planning counter and in most cases Planning approval is granted within a few minutes, if the request is for an activity in an existing building. Land uses and activities with the symbols MUP are subject to approval of a Minor Conditional Use Permit. As described in Chapter 22.56 of Article IV, an MUP is required for "specified activities and uses ... whose effect on the surrounding area cannot be determined before being proposed at particular location." Approval of a MUP is subject to a public hearing before the Hearing Officer (see Table 4-1 Review Authority, pg. IV -3,4). Conditions of approval may be applied to these uses to insure their compatibility with the surrounding area. For example, restaurants with outdoor dining require an MUP. Depending on its location, this use could require a condition insuring adequate separation from an adjacent residential neighborhood to mitigate potential noise impacts or require that landscaping be installed to separate the use from an adjacent parking lot. A CUP (Conditional Use Permit), is required for uses that have the potential for more significant impacts than those requiring an MUP, such as large family daycare centers. These uses are subject to review at a public hearing by the Planning Commission. Article II also includes tables containing the development standards for each zoning category. These tables include standards for setbacks, minimum lot areas, floor area ratios, building height and also include references to specific requirements for signage, landscaping and parking, which are addressed in Article III. Again, consolidating this 5 information into tables simplifies and clarifies the development process for the development community and the general public. Article II also contains a chapter on overlay zoning districts. An overlay district is a mechanism whereby an additional zone is applied over an existing zone, to achieve a specific goal of the City (for example a flood zone overlay could restrict construction in areas subject to flooding). A Planned Development (PD) overlay zone is proposed in the City to encourage commercial, residential or industrial projects of superior design by allowing flexibility in adopted development standards, in areas where the PD designation is applied. The PD overlay zone will be applied to specific sites on the revised zoning map as a suffix to the primary zoning district (for example, RR -PD). Zoning Consistency Matrix Page II -7 includes the Zoning Consistency Matrix. Upon the advice of the City Attorney and the consultant team, and in order to expedite the adoption process, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the Development Code separately from the revised Zoning Map. As previously stated, Article II establishes new zoning districts consistent with the General Plan designations. Once these districts are established, revision to the existing Zoning Map is required to apply the new designations to individual properties. Several of the zoning revisions involve only a change in name (i.e. R- 1 10,000 will now be called Low Density Residential (RL) and the standards and the minimum lot sizes will stay the same). However, many of the zone changes will not be this simple; many residential zones will have a larger minimum lot size requirement, and there are certain zones such as the Commercial Planned Development (CPD) zone which are being eliminated entirely. If the current Zoning Map is divided up into sections representing commonly zoned areas, it is estimated that there will be at least 100 areas with zone changes. The consultants have advised staff that the Zoning Map revision and the citywide rezoning that it entails, should occur after the adoption of the Development Code. This keeps the focus on the Development Code document rather than the potentially volatile issue of rezoning. This is particularly true since there are properties that will be "downzoned" (i.e. the allowed density of residential properties will be R decreased) and in a few cases, properties are being rezoned from a residential to a commercial district. The gap between the new zoning designations established by the Development Code and the adoption of the zoning map will be bridged the "zoning consistency matrix". This matrix establishes equivalencies between the existing zoning districts and the applicable standards in the new Development Code. The consistency matrix will be in effect until the new zoning map is adopted. ARTICLE VI - DEVELOPMENT CODE DEFINITIONS This Article includes the definitions of development terms that will be used throughout the remaining Articles of the Code. The list of terms in the current Code has been updated and includes definitions of contemporary land uses (such as telecommunications facilities) although many of the definitions have been retained because they are still applicable. The Definitions Article has placed at the back of the Code, because that is where people intuitively look. Also, graphics have been included where an illustration helps clarify a definition. This Article is an important reference tool for reviewing the rest of the Code. Definitions may be added to this article throughout the process if needed. SUMMARY This memorandum has discussed the three foundational Articles of the Development Code. These Articles address the operational rules and provisions applicable to the entire Code, establishes the city's zoning districts and permitted uses for all zones within the City, and contains • the definitions of terms that are used throughout the Development Code. Thorough review and understanding of these Articles will facilitate the successful review of the remainder of the Development Code.

With the adoption of the General Plan, the City is required to produce a conforming Development Code that is consistent with and implements the policies of, the General Plan. The Development Code will be specifically tailored to meet the needs of Diamond Bar while responding to current case law and legislation. The proposed comprehensive Development Code utilizes and integrates existing portions of the current Planning and Zoning Code and ordinances, expanded to include a tree preservation ordinance, development standards for specific land uses and city-wide design guidelines. To assist City staff and the consultants in insuring that a document is created that is responsive to the needs of the community, the input of the public has been solicited through a survey and through public workshops. Additionally, the Development Code is proposed to be a simple and easy to understand document. The Development Code proposes to increase economic development opportunities by providing competitive standards and contemporary design approaches for Diamond Bar. The Development Code further proposes to conserve and retain the natural beauty of the City and improve and enhance its physical character. INTRODUCTION Attached are the draft comprehensive Development Code and Citywide Design Guidelines which were recommended for approval by the Planning Commission on December 9, 1997, The Subdivision Code, which is also being revised, is still in process and will be transmitted to the City Council at a later date. Additionally, standards regulating telecommunications facilities are being created. Currently, telecommunications facilities are subject to the moratorium enacted by the adoption of Ordinance 4-A (1997). The regulations for telecommunication facilities will ultimately become a chapter of the Development Code, but will be presented for adoption separately. The purpose of tonight's workshop is to present the document to the City Council and to discuss the schedule and manner in which the Code will be reviewed. Staff will provide a brief overview of the legal authority, purpose, contents and scope of a comprehensive Development Code, The following memorandum contains supporting material for this presentation and provides a summary and an update of the major steps in the process of creating the Code and a discussion of its format and organization, LEGAL FOUNDATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT CODE The legal basis for all land use regulations is the police power given to local jurisdictions by state enabling legislation to protect the health, safety and welfare of its residents. State Planning and Zoning Law, (Sec. 65850) gives cities and counties the authority to adopt ordinances regulating the use of buildings and land, the location, height, bulk and size of buildings, the size and use of lots, yards, courts and other open spaces, maintain building setbacks, establish requirements for off-street parking and loading and other features of development typically included within development codes. State Planning and Zoning Law (Sec. 65300) requires that each county and city adopt "a comprehensive, long-term general plan for the physical development of the county or city, and any land outside its boundaries which in the planning agency's judgment bears relation to its planning." The general plan has been described as the "constitution for all future developments within the city or county." 2 All local decisions affecting land use and development must be in conformity with the general plan. A general land plan is a policy document. It establishes broad community use regulations goals, objectives and strategies but does not contain the is to be and built. standards that determine how a development project For the City shall example: General Plan Objective "Maintain 2.2 states that minimize an organized pattern of land uses which conflicts between adjacent land implement this uses." objective, the Development Code In order to identifies permitted in specific zones and contains development uses standards such as setback and landscape buffering requirements. A Development Code is the primary implementation tool for a general plan. It is the bridge from the general plan to how people utilize their properties. It is not meant to revisit the general plan or to correct any perceived deficiencies within the plan. It is meant to support and implement the general plan and codify its goals and objectives. NEED FOR A COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT CODE Upon incorporation, the City adopted the County of Los Angeles' Planning and Zoning and Subdivision Codes. In addition, in response to local issues and development needs, several ordinances have been adopted addressing development review, signs, hillside management, modified side yard setbacks, property maintenance standards and modified uses for the Commercial Manufacturing zone. In conformance with state law, Water Efficient Landscape regulations, and a Congestion Management ordinance have also been adopted. Collectively, these documents and ordinances determine how development will occur on property within the City. The City adopted its General Plan in July of 1995, establishing the goals, objectives and strategies representing the community's vision for its future. This vision includes the retention of the hillside community character, the preservation of open space, the reduction of regional traffic impacts on local streets, the promotion of viable commercial activity, and the provision of well maintained and attractive housing. As a result of the adoption of the General Plan, it became apparent that the existing Code was outdated and ill-suited to meet the City's IF needs. The decision was made to significantly revise and update the current Code. The following areas were identified which were either lacking in the current Code, or needed to be significantly revised to address the specific needs of the City: • Home occupations; • Second dwelling units; • Expanded definitions; • Revised parking standards; • Revised sign standards; • Revised and updated list of permitted uses; • Development standards for specific uses such as fast food restaurants; • Residential wall and fencing standards for hillside areas; • Slope density formula; • Revised landscaping standards; • Tree preservation; • Standards for satellite dishes and telecommunication facilities; • Lighting standards for parking lots, tennis courts, etc.; • Design review standards for residential, commercial and industrial uses PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE DEVELOPMENT CODE The purpose of the Development Code is to implement the. policies of the General Plan through classifying and regulating the uses of land and structures, to insure consistency with new state laws and regulations, and to create standards in keeping with modern development practices as well as community values. In creating a new Development Code, the current Planning and Zoning Code's regulations were not arbitrarily thrown out or significant changes made in the permitted uses in established zones. The existing Codes have been thoroughly reviewed and where appropriate, existing standards retained. The goal isn't to create non -conformities or start "from scratch" which would be inappropriate in a developed community. The goal is to update and refine the existing regulations and eliminate obsolete standards and inconsistencies to ensure that new development is consistent with the General Plan and compatible with the existing pattern of land uses. The proposed Development Code includes zoning regulations and integrates the ordinances listed above. It has been expanded to include tree preservation regulations and development standards for specific land uses such as daycare centers and home based businesses. The new Development Code will encompass all the land development regulations that must be followed to complete a new land use activity within the City. It will reference, although it will not include, building and other codes such as fire, pubic works (street specifications, improvement standards) and applicable sections of the Municipal Code. DEVELOPMENT CODE PROCESS The process of creating a new Development Code began in April of 1996 when Requests for Proposals were sent to numerous local consulting firms with expertise in the preparation of development codes. Responses. were received from several firms. Based on staff's review of their written proposal, an oral interview and an extensive background check, the City selected the Planning and Zoning Alliance. This consultant group is composed of Urban Design Studio, Crawford Multari and Clark, and Jacobson and Wack, firms with 75 years of cumulative experience in the public and private sectors and recipients of the American Planning Association (APA) Outstanding Planning Award for Plan Implementation, 1992 for the City of San Bernardino Development Code. Once the consultant team was selected, the process formally commenced in July of 1996. A Planning Commission/Council Workshop was held early in the process to introduce the project and the consultants and to obtain public input on issues to be addressed in the new Code. This workshop was part of a Public Outreach Program identified in the project's Scope of Work, which also included a Development Code Survey. This survey consisted of a series of questions on the quality of local development. It was included in the October 1996 issue of the Windmill, which is mailed to every household in the City (approximately 20,000). Surveys were also distributed in a separate mailing to approximately 200 local organizations, schools, religious organizations and developers and made available at City Hall at the Planning Division public information counter. A summary of the results of the survey were published in the February issue of the Windmill. Beginning in December of 1996, in accordance with the approved schedule, the consultants submitted draft versions of each Article of the Code. These draft Articles were distributed to staff members in the Planning, Building and Safety and Engineering Divisions, for review 5 Article of the Code, followed by Site Planning and General Development Standards, and Land Use and Development Permit Procedures, representing the "meat" of the document. The definitions sections is located at the back of the document, because this is where people intuitively look for definitions. Article V, Development Code Administration, which is most often utilized by the Planning staff is located towards the end of the document. Site development standards and permitted uses have been organized into easy to read tables wherever possible. Where necessary, standards are accompanied by graphics to improve clarity and understanding for the user. The Code also includes cross references to its other relevant provisions, as well as references to potentially applicable regulations (e.g. subdivision, grading, building, environmental etc.) in other documents where appropriate. The proposed Development Code has been designed for clarity and ease of implementation for the public, the development community, local decision makers and the City staff. Also included within your packet are the Citywide Design Guidelines. These Guidelines have been created to assist City staff, decision makers and the development community in achieving a high quality of aesthetic and functional design throughout the City. These guidelines are to be applied in conjunction with the development standards contained within the Development Code in implementing the City's development review process. Although these guidelines are expected to be followed, they are general and may be interpreted with some flexibility in order to encourage creativity on the part of the project designer. REVISIONS TO THE DRAFT DEVELOPMENT CODE In the process of reviewing the draft Development Code, both the Planning Commission and the staff made changes to the draft document. These changes are noted within the document in the following manner: Planning Commission changes are shown by a lx►itl extcndetl typeface; staff changes are shown by a bold condensed type face; struck out text, which is not accompanied by revised replacement text is noted by an asterisk when it reflects a Planning Commission deletion. -7 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Pursuant to the terms of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City has determined that this project will not have a significant effect on the environment and a Negative Declaration has been prepared. The Negative Declaration will be adopted at the time that the City Council makes its final recommendation on the Development Code.

C/Huff asked if the feasibility of installing a Class II bicycle lane had been discussed by the Traffic & Transportation Commission and the Parks & Recreation Commission. CM/Belanger responded that the Traffic & Transportation Commission discussed the possibility of upgrading the bicycle lane to Class II and recommended approval of cross hatch striping as recommended by staff as a first step toward mitigating safety concerns with respect to persons accessing and leaving the business sites. In response to C/Ansari, DPW/Liu explained that ten vehicular accidents have been reported in the immediate area in the past two years. C/Ansari requested that the Sheriffs Department more closely monitor the area to determine the effectiveness of the striping. Following discussion, C/Huff moved, MPT/Chang seconded, to concur with the Traffic & Transportation Commission's recommendation to install cross hatch striping on the eastbound side of Grand Ave. between Montefino Ave. and D.B.

CM/Belanger agreed with C/O'Connor that this matter should have DECEMBER 16, 1997 PAGE 5 been proposed earlier in the year during budget consideration. However, because the increased number of employees seeking leave would leave the City with a skeleton crew, he felt it was imperative that the matter be discussed at this time. He assured Council that, in the future, holiday leave will be included in the benefits package when salaries and benefits are being changed. M/Herrera explained that she requested this item be placed on the agenda to provide an additional employee benefit to compensate for the July, 1997 meager cost -of -living increase. Clyde Hennessee said he was not concerned about giving employees the additional day off, but that he was concerned that the City is asking for more full time employees. Following discussion, M/Herrera moved, MPT/Chang seconded, to approve an additional holiday on December 26, 1997 in FY 97-98 for City employees and to change the title of the MIS Assistant to MIS Technician, deleting a part-time Clerk Typist and adding a full-time Secretary in the City Clerk's Office, deleting an Administrative Intern position in the City Manager's Office, making the MIS Technician a full-time position and allocating $45 to the appropriate department FY 97-98 budgets.

PUBLIC HEARINGS: Ansari, Huff, O'Connor, MPT/C hang, M/Herrera None None DECEMBER 16, 1997 PAGE 6 7.1 APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 97-13, DENYING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 97-3, 21324 PATHFINDER ROAD - At the request of staff, ACA/Susskind explained the rules pertaining to "de novo" hearings. CM/Belanger read a letter addressed to M/Herrera which was signed by the Principal and Assistant Principal of D. B. High School opposing the sale of alcohol at the proposed location because of its close proximity to the school. C/Ansari disclosed that she had spoken with Mr. Salimnia, owner of the proposed site in October while she was campaigning for City Council re-election. M/Herrera opened the Public Hearing. Mr. Shay, speaking on behalf of Mr. Salimnia, pointed out that Denny's Restaurant sells beer and wine next door to the proposed site and adjacent to the high school. He wondered why there are no objections to the sale of cigarettes at the site. M/Herrera said that she had spoken with WVUSD Superintendent Dr. Hockwalt who supported the opposition presented by D.B. High School officials. Lt. Stothers stated that the Walnut Sheriffs Department had no opposition to the application in accordance with the law. However, the department is concerned with the sale of beer and wine in close proximity to the school site. Responding to C/Huff, Lt. Stothers explained that there is a potential for more problems associated with the sale of packaged beer and wine and the potential for passing it along to minors. In response to C/O'Connor, Lt. Stothers explained that he was not aware of problems with the liquor store across the street from Lorbeer Junior High School. DCM/DeStefano responded to M/Herrera that the ABC is concerned when alcohol is sold within 600' of a school facility. D.B. High School is approximately 80' from property line to property line. Mr. Shay stated that no Sheriffs Department sting operation has proven that the existing operation has caused any problems with the high school. Mr. Salimnia and his employees are very diligent in checking identifications. DECEMBER 16, 1997 PAGE 7 Responding to C/O'Connor, DCM/DeStefano stated that 6 gasoline stations currently sell packaged beer and wine in D.B. C/O'Connor pointed out that grocery stores, restaurants and liquor stores which sell alcoholic beverages are situated in close proximity to other schools. C/Ansari said that Mr. Salimnia has run a good business for many years, however, she is concerned about the sale of alcoholic beverages within close proximity to the high school. There being no further testimony offered, M/Herrera closed the Public Hearing. C/Huff said he is concerned about the proximity to the high school even though the operation is well-run. He believed Council should exercise discretion in this matter. MPT/Chang also expressed concern about the proximity to the high school and indicated that he had spoken to parents of high school students who expressed opposition to the proposal. C/Huff moved, C/Ansari seconded, to deny the appeal, uphold the Planning Commission's decision and direct staff to return with a Resolution of Denial on January 6, 1998. Motion carried by the following Roll Call vote: AYES NOES: ABSENT 8.

Another would be to look at the City's requirement to comply with AB939 which we must accomplish by the year 2000 whereby cities have to divert 50% of our waste stream. This Task Force will review and recommend the best approach for the City to comply with AB939; consider legislative solutions; one possibly being to extend the deadline to the year 2005; review recycling requirements; review recycled material markets such as some items that are recycled --is there a market for them --and make recommendations to the City Council.

CITU OF DIAMOND DAR AND DIAMOND BAR REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY TOWN HALL MEETING ` DECEMBER 20, 1997 CALL TO ORDER: Mayor Herrera called the meeting to order at 9:12 a.m., in the South Coast air Quality Management District Auditorium, 21865 Copley Drive, Diamond Bar, California. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Agency Member Ansari. COUNCIL ROLL CALL: Council Members Ansari, O'Connor, Mayor Pro Tem Chang and Mayor Herrera. Council Member Huff was absent. AGENCY ROLL CALL: Agency Members Chang, Herrera, O'Connor and Vice Chairperson Ansari. Chairman Huff was absent. Also present were: City Manager Terrence L. Belanger, Deputy City Manager Frank Usher, and Assistant to the City Manager Kellee Fritzal. _ WELCOME AND INTRODUCTION. Vice Chairperson Ansari welcomed attendees and cable television viewers. OVERVIEW OF REDEVELOPMENT AND THE ECONOMIC REVITALIZATION PLAN. CM/ED/Belanger reported that the next phase in the redevelopment process is to build upon the Redevelopment Area Plan by creating programs that are suggested in the Plan such as a commercial rehabilitation program, a business attraction program, a parking improvement program and implementation of a public infrastructure program. QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS CONCERNING REDEVELOPMENT AND THE REVITALIZATION AREA PLAN. Alan Wilson, 22809 Hilton Head Dr., expressed concern with prioritizing the implementation phase of the plan. He suggested that the City proceed with the K - Mart Shopping Center area first and followup with the Savon/Von's Shopping Center area. CNC/Ansari responded that the City will begin prioritizing Plan implementation in January, 1998 based upon public input and professional advice. M/AM/Herrera believed that the next step would be to look at the centers in the City and seek professional advice regarding feasibility, cost and implementation in cooperation with the business owners. DECEMBER 20, 1997 PAGE 2 TOWN HALL MEETING Wilbur Smith, 21630 Fairway Ln., said he is overjoyed to learn that no big box malls will be constructed in the City. He asked if sufficient funds can be raised through redevelopment to improve the City's existing businesses and attract niche businesses. CNC/Ansari responded that feasibility studies will determine the extent to which funds will be available for plan implementation. CM/ED/Belanger explained that the process allows 20 years for the commitment of resources, 30 years for the plan to be in effect and 45 years for application of the resources in retiring the debt obligations that may have been incurred by the Agency. This is a process that, by design, takes time. It takes several years before a fairly significant amount of increment is expected to be available to the Agency to retire debt which suggests that most of the initial work of a Redevelopment Project Area implementation ought to be in creating programs, identifying projects and working with property owners and business owners in order to prepare to act when increment becomes available. It is anticipated that a redevelopment agency will take 2 to 5 years creating implementation programs and identifying projects while determining actual increment cash flow. The Agency will be successful if the community works toward that end. The process requires patience and prudence, and a positive attitude. Responding to CNC/Ansari, CM/ED/Belanger explained that eminent domain is a method that, in the law, is available to redevelopment agencies as a way of implementing projects and programs in the first 12 years of the agency. However, the Council and Redevelopment Agency decided that, as a matter of policy, the Agency will not use eminent domain as part of the plan implementation. He further explained that redevelopment has, as a part of its process, the setting aside of monies for housing purposes for very low, low and moderate income families. A variety of programs are available and will be created through the next phase of program creation. Because D.B. is 85% developed, housing programs under redevelopment are more likely to take on a program based implementation rather than a project based implementation including first time buyer programs, housing rehabilitation assistance, etc. Mr. Wilson expressed concern about the decrease in value of condominium projects. He asked if HUD programs and other types of programs will be available for renters to purchase property. CM/ED/Belanger responded that it is likely staff will recommend that the City not integrate redevelopment with other governmental programs such as HUD Section 8 programs. Renter to buyer programs are the types of programs that will most likely be made available through D. B.'s Redevelopment Plan. Franklin Fong, 23253 Falcon Ridge Rd., said he would like the Redevelopment Agency to consider a landscape improvement program for the water holding tank DECEMBER 20, 1997 PAGE 3 TOWN HALL MEETING sites within the City. CM/ED/Belanger responded that staff is pursuing alternatives such as contracting with muralists to camouflage the tanks. In response to C/AM/O'Connor, CM/ED/Belanger responded that Walnut Valley Water District owns the water storage tanks. The City will enter into an agreement to improve the aesthetics of the tanks. C/AM/O'Connor said she is anxious to move forward with the redevelopment process and looks forward to public involvement and input. M/AM/Herrera reiterated that the Redevelopment Agency and the Economic Revitalization Plan will greatly benefit the City and its businesses. She believed residents would like to shop in areas of the City that are more attractive and responsive to their needs. In addition, the City needs to be able to attract businesses to relocate into a community which offers them the opportunity to successfully compete. She encouraged residents to work toward overturning the lawsuit pending against the Redevelopment Agency. She thanked the citizens for their participation and staff for their diligence in organizing the town hall materials and participating in the process. MPT/AM/Chang encouraged business owners to embrace competition and the potential for a successful Redevelopment Agency. Through cooperative effort, D. B. will create and implement a successful program. CNC/Ansari pointed out that D.B. currently receives the lowest amount of return on property tax dollars of 89 cities that pay taxes to the State of California (5.29%). Redevelopment will significantly increase that return. M/AM/Herrera thanked staff and the citizens for their participation in the Town Hall meeting process. 5.

Belanger, City Manager TITLE: A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar Approving the Authorization of the Submittal of the Fourth Cycle Local Government Opportunity Grant. SUMMARY: On November 14, 1997, the City of Diamond Bar submitted a Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant to the California Integrated Waste Management Board (Board). The proposed grant is to request additional funding to expand the existing used oil collection network to fit local demand. The grant addresses the problems presented by illegal oil dumping including adverse effects on human health and the environment. The grant will expand the number of certified collection centers, and augment school and public education and outreach. The opportunity grant would not require any matching funds, and costs to the City are reimbursed through regular (i.e., quarterly) reimbursement requests. The grant application is in the amount of $134,405.

MEETING DATE: January 20, 1998 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Terrence L. Belanger, City Manager SUBJECT: Resolution No.98-XX: A Resolution of the City of Diamond Bar Approving the Authorization of the Submittal of the Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant ISSUE STATEMENT: To fulfill the requirements of the California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) in applying for the Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant funding, and to formally authorize the submittal of the application which was submitted to the CIWMB on November 14, 1997. RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve Resolution No. 98-xx: Approving the Authorization of the Submittal of the Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant. FINANCIAL SUMMARY: The Used Oil Opportunity Grant does not require any matching funds, and costs to the City are reimbursed through regular (i.e., quarterly) reimbursement requests. The grant is in the amount of $134,405. 1T-IW,I32111,1110 P To date, the City has created a network of four certified collection centers (i.e., Firestone Master Care, Performance Shell, Tim's Mobil, and Pathfinder Chevron) for residents to recycle their used motor oil, and has produced several thousand promotional items given away free to residents. Since 1994, the program has diverted about 19,812 gallons of used motor oil away from landfills, storm drains, land, and surface waters based on collection center reports. Funding for this program has been provided from grants awarded by the CIWMB as authorized by 1991 California Oil Recycling Enhancement Act. At present, the City has limited funding via its Fifth Cycle Used Oil Recycling Block Grant, which is a noncompetitive award given to all jurisdictions statewide in the amount of $0.31 per resident. The "Fifth Cycle" designation refers to the fact that the program is now in its fifth year of funding for this block grant program. Resolution No. 98-xx January 20, 1998 Page 2 The used oil recycling block grant is being implemented by the City's Integrated Environmental Services (IES) Coordinator, J. Michael Huls, REA (JMH). DISCUSSION The City is applying for additional funding over and above the block grant because the existing network needs to be expanded to fit local demand in part created by unfunded federal and state mandates, e.g., NPDES (storm water management), AB 2707 (household hazardous waste management law), and AB 939 (recycling law). Block grant funding is limited to $0.31 per resident, and is insufficient to address the full scope of problems presented by illegal oil dumping including detrimental effects upon human health and the environment. The Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant is a competitive application program offered by the California Integrated Waste Management Board (Board) to jurisdictions. The key differences include no guarantee of award for the opportunity grant, the opportunity grant has strict limitations on how it can be spent (based on the grant application), and there are no "limits" on funding as compared to the block grant program. Under the Fourth Cycle Local Government Used Oil Opportunity Grant, the City is requesting about $2.50 per resident, which is expected to dramatically increase public awareness of oil recycling opportunities, firmly establish an oil recycling school education program, and increase the network of certified collection centers (CCCs) from four to nine sites. It is noted that the Board received $22 million in grant applications during the solicitation period ending November 14, 1997, and it has about $6 million to award. The grant was prepared by the City's IES Coordinator, JMH, at no charge. The City will contract with JMH to implement the grant. JMH provides similar grant implementation services to over 20 cities in the San Gabriel Valley. The grant, if funded, will be awarded around March of 1998, with a contract schedule of April 1, 1998 through March 31, 2000 during which time the funding would be expended. Prepared by: David G.

Belanger, City Manager MEETING DATE: January 20, 1998 REPORT DATE: January 14, 1998 FROM: Bob Rose, Community Services Director TITLE: Extension of Vendor Services for Bus Excursion Recreation Program SUMMARY: Under the purchasing guidelines, awards for services to a single vendor shall not exceed $10,000 without prior authorization from the City Council. The City offers 24 bus excursions for adults and seniors as a part of the recreation program each year. Requests for bids for providing bus excursion services are obtained from vendors prior to each excursion. Two vendors, Inland Empire Stages, Limited and Main Street Tours consistantiy submit the low bids for these services. Expected use of these vendors for the remainder of the 1997/98 fiscal year will result in the $10,000 ceiling being exceeded. In order to continue utilizing the most qualified vendors, at the lowest possible price, it is necessary to extend the $10,000 ceiling for these two vendors. Funds to provide the additional bus excursion services are already included in the 1997/98 fiscal year budget and will have no financial impact on the budget. RECOMMENDED ACTION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize additional work to be performed by Inland Empire Stages, Limited and Main Street Tours (consistantiy the two low bidders for this service) for the provision of bus excursion services for the 1997/98 fiscal year. The total amount awarded to these vendors for services rendered this fiscal year shall not exceed $26,000 for Inland Empire Stages, Limited and $15,000 for Main Street Tours.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members MEETING DATE: January 20, 1998 REPORT DATE: January 15, 1998 FROM: Terrence L. Belanger, City Manager TITLE: PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDERATION OF THE 1998-99 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM SUMMARY: The City has scheduled a public hearing to discuss programs and allocation of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The City will receive $370.762 in federal funds as a participant in the 1998-99 Los Angeles Urban County CDBG Program. In addition, the City has $135,949 in unallocated funds, for a total allocation of $506.711. The funds may be used for a variety of Community Development activities which develop a viable urban community, principally for persons of low and moderate income levels. The City may only allocate 15% or $55,615 of the 1998-99 allocation towards community public service programs. The City has received an increase in public service project requests and has a reduction in the amount that can be allocated. In the previous five (5) fiscal years the City has been able to allocate up to 25% of allocated funds for public service projects. Local cities are lobbying Congress to create a permanent retention of the 25% public service cap. The purpose of the public hearing is to solicit public testimony and receive presentations from public service organizations and residents requesting funds. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council open the public hearing, receive testimony and, if appropriate, adopt Resolution 98 -XX "A Resolution Approving the City's Community Development Block Grant Program for Fiscal Year 1998-99", and authorize the City Manager to execute all CDBG documents required for the implementation of the program.

Fntzal City Manager Deputy City Manager Assistant to City Manager CITU COUNCIL REPORT MEETING DATE: January 20, 1998 Agenda No. TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Terrence L. Belanger, City Manger SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDERATION OF THE 1998-99 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT ISSUE STATEMENT As required by Federal regulations the City must solicit public participation through advertisements and public hearings prior to the adoption of the Community Development Block Grant program. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council open the public hearing, receive testimony and, if appropriate, adopt Resolution 98 -XX "A Resolution Approving the City's Community Development Block Grant Program for Fiscal Year 1998-99", and authorize the City Manager to execute all CDBG documents required for the implementation of the program. FINANCIAL SUMMARY Approval of the 1998-99 CDBG budget will be incorporated into the 1998-99 City budget. The CDBG Program does not impact the General Fund budget of the City. BACKGROUND The City of Diamond Bar, through a Cooperative Agreement, is part of the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission - Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. The CDBG program was established through the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. The primary program of each grantee under the Title is the development of viable urban communities, by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low and moderate income. The use of CDBG funds must meet the primary national objectives: Benefitting low and moderate income persons; or Addressing slums or blight; or Meeting a particular urgent community development need. The projects must also meet eligible activity categories including: acquisition of real property for an eligible use; acquisition, construction, and rehabilitation of public facilities; demolition and clearance of deteriorated buildings; community service for low - and moderate -income households; removal of barriers that restrict the mobility for elderly or handicapped persons; or special economic development activities. CDBG 11 ,AAn may ha i icarl fnr n vnriafv of nnmmunav eiAvei0pmant activities sm;n as putAU services, administration and public works projects. The funds may only be used within low and moderate income census tracts (of which the City has none) and/or to benefit low and moderate income persons and/or presumed eligible persons. The City's approved projects and budget must be submitted to the Los Angeles CDC by February 10, 1998. The City of Diamond Bar's projects and budget will ultimately become part of the Los Angeles County's CDBG program application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). DISCUSSION Of the City's total allocation, a portion (15%) may be allocated towards community service projects. Due to the Los Angeles Riots, there was a five (5) year exception to the 15% public service cap, increasing it to a 25% public service cap. The 25% public service cap exception has now reached the sunset clause. The City may only fund 15% of the allocation to public service projects. Local cities have begun a lobbying effort to create the permanent retention of the 25% public service cap. If Congress does enact a 25% public service cap in the current legislation, the City will have an option to program an additional 10% towards public service programs. Those projects which are determined eligible and are granted funding must meet the Federal regulations/requirements as subrecipients. The regulations include determining eligible of participants, submitting back-up financial documentation, and retention of all records for a three year period. The City provides support to the projects that receive funding with technical assistance and monitoring to insure compliance. The City is responsible for overseeing the operations of all the subrecipients supported activities including compliance with all applicable Federal requirements and that performance goals are being achieved. As part of the application process, the City must describe the programs which are currently being implemented and how those programs are meeting the goals and objectives that have been established by the City.

PROPOSED PROJECTS AND ALLOCATIONS FOR THE 1998-99 PROGRAM YEAR In planning for the 1998-99 CDBG process the City published public notices announcing the availability of CDBG funds, mailed letters and applications to all existing subrecipients and interested parties requesting proposals for use of the CDBG funds. The City received applications for projects from several new organizations. Due to limited funding available in the public service category, staff is recommending providing funding to three projects with the available 15% allocation. However, if the public service cap is increased to 25%, staff would recommend funding for additional projects. In addition, staff is recommending the beginning of a five (5) capital improvement program of savings funds for a senior/community center.

January 16, 199/ Kellee rritzal City of Diamond Bar 21660 h,. Copley Drive Suite 100 Diamond liar, CA 91/6-) Dear Kellee: Due to your current position with CDBU funding we would like to lower our request. to $20,000 for our Atter School Program and $9,000 for our Day Cramp Program. Since the CDBU program started it has enabled the Y to stabilize our financial position while increasing our service to low and moderate income families in our community. Less funds for low or moderate income families will have one or both of the following impacts: 1. Decrease the number of families served. 2. Increase the amount each tamily is to pay which lin turn may make it difficult for some families to participate in our programs leaving them without Ctuld Care. Either option means less help to low or moderate income families in Diamond liar.

It solves the problem parents face with what to do with their children on year round programs, summer vaca- tion, winter and spring breaks. Our program is unique in that not only do we provide safe, healthy quality care, but we work with the whole family to build strong kids, strong families and strong communities. We encourage participants to grow as a family unit and individuals to participate in values education, physical fitness and community service they may not otherwise receive.

Title: Learning for Life Director Date: January 5, 1998 LEARNING FOR LIFE: AN IN -SCHOOL SCOUTING PROGRAM The Old Baldy Council, Boy Scouts of America strives to teach the values of Scouting to all youth, no matter their origin. One program that has proved successful in reaching the hard to reach areas of the communities we serve is Learning for Life, our in -school Scouting program. INTRODUCTION The mission of the Old Baldy Council, Boy Scouts of America is the development of citizenship, character, and physical fitness in all youths within our diverse population. Our Scouting program benefits over 16,000 youth in 345 Cub Packs, Boy Scout Troops, Explorer Posts, and Learning for Life groups, as documented in June of 1997. Our membership continues to increase by over two percent, with Learning for Life membership projected to triple by the end of 1997. Our members come from multi- ethnic backgrounds and various levels of financial well-being. Traditional Cub Packs, Boy Scout Troops, and Coed Explorer Posts constitute 85% of our present membership. These programs utilize local volunteers as leaders and are financially self-sufficient. The remaining 15% of our youth members learn the values of Scouting through our Learning for Life program_ The students are taught the weekly lesson by their elementary school teachers during the school day. PURPOSE The Learning for Life program, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Boy Scouts of America, was developed in 1991 to meet the critical needs of our nation's schools and communities. It is designed to enhance student's self-esteem, confidence, and motivation_ The program teaches the participants to make ethical decisions so that they may achieve their full potential. The program focuses on age-appropriate lessons which teach the values of Scouting while also directing students' behavior in a positive direction, improving their math and reading skills, increasing their school attendance, and reducing tension among ethnic groups. DESCRIPTION The Learning for Life program focuses on 55 different value based lessons that are consistent with what the students are learning in the classroom. The lessons vary from topics like "When People Steal From Me" to "Accepting Consequences". The learning process is action oriented, using teaching techniques such as role playing, small group discussions, reflective and moral dilemma exercises, and hands-on activities. Students have an opportunity to think about what they have just learned and integrated the experience into real life. We are expanding the Learning for Life program to Diamond Bar. With the start of the new school year, two schools will be conducting our in -school Scouting program_ The first school is Castle Rock Elementary School. The students who attend are in kindergarten through fifth grades. The principal is in support of the Learning for Life program. He recognizes the need for a values program so that his students can learn the importance of being good citizens. The second school is Maple Hill Elementary School. They teach kindergarten through fifth grade as well. The teachers really enjoy the recognition charts and stickers because they motivate the students to learn. All in all, the Learning for Life program would be a real asset for each of these schools. REQUEST This specific request asks the City of Diamond Bar to support the cost of our in -school Scouting program, Learning for Life, at the two school sites in Diamond Bar for the 1998-1999 school year. The cost of the program is $4880.00 (see attached budget). There will be approximately 800 kids registered in Learning for Life. SUMMARY The youth of Diamond Bar need your help. When values aren't being taught at home, kids struggle to find their way. A program like Learning for Life guides them in the right direction. Our in -school Scouting program teaches kids the difference between right and wrong and how to respect others. The elementary school administrators recognize that programs such as ours are of great benefit to their students. The students grow emotionally and mentally, making them better students and better team players. We welcome the opportunity to work together in the service of the youth in the two elementary schools in Diamond Bar.

APPLICATION SUMMARY C_n w Z_ Organization: Old Baldy Council, Boy Scouts of America Project Name: Adventure Mountain Camp Amount Requested: $5,000.00 Location of Project: Holcomb Valley Scout Reservation, Fawnskin, CA Funds would be used to: The Adventure Mountain program will bring over 250 boys, including approximately 20 from the Diamond Bar area, to our Scout Reservation in the Big Bear Mountains. These boys come from low to moderate low income families and do not have the opportunity to attend summer camp. Once at Holcomb Valley, the boys realize how beneficial a program is like Scouting.

Dalton, IV Title: Scout Executive Federal I.D. Number/Non-Profit Status: 95-1656362 Page Two CDBG Application This application is proposing a new existing X project. (check) Has the project received past funding from the City of Diamond Bar? Yes If yes, please identify the year/amount and source of funding: 1997-1998 Program Year - $3,000.00 Received through CDBG Funding GOALS AND OBJECTIVE OF PROJECT Provide a detailed description of the proposed project by describing precisely what is to be accomplished with the requested funds. Adventure Mountain provides inner-city boys with the opportunity to attend summer camp and work with positive adult role models. The boys have the chance to watch and learn from these adults without the usual distractions found in a busy urban environment. Since these boys are not currently involved in Scouting, Adventure Mountain gives them a glimpse into the benefits of being a Boy Scout. The Adventure Mountain program uses traditional Scouting activities to allow the boys to learn by doing. These activities include making rope, archery, nature hikes, swimming, mountain biking, rifle shooting, and lanyards. These activities are combined with the use of the Scouting patrol method, which allows the boys to take on leadership positions. Upon their return, the patrol they belonged to at summer camp becomes a Boy Scout troop that facilitates their learning year round. Describe the specific purpose of the project, identify the problems the project is intended to solve, and the age group of those to be served. The traditional Boy Scout program is not always effective at reaching those at -risk youth that live in lower income areas. The parents are not aware of the benefits of their son becoming a Boy Scout. Hence, we created the Adventure Mountain program to reach these boys that aren't involved in Scouting and can't afford a summer camp experience. We want these boys to see first- hand what fun they can have in our Scouting program. Their experiences make them more likely to join a troop and through the traditional Boy Scout program we can address problems such as low self-esteem, lack of guidance, and weak values' training. The boys invited to Adventure Mountain Camp are in grades 4th through 7th. Identify and describe the geographic boundaries of the target area. (attach a map if appropriate). The Old Baldy Council covers the cities of Alta Loma, Chino, Chino Hills, Claremont, Diamond Bar, Etiwanda, Fontana, La Verne, Montclair, Ontario, Pomona, Rancho Cucamonga, San Dimas, Upland, and Walnut. The Adventure Mountain program recruits from the low and moderate low income areas of each of these cities.

PIVMELF's mission is to provide access to training, technical assistance, support and credit, so that low income individuals and their families may become self-sufficient through owning their own small business. Similar programs in the U.S. and around the world have shown that those living in poverty often have the motivation, skills and perseverance to establish and maintain a profitable small business ventures, and demonstrate excellent repayment habits when programs are properly established and monitored. Low income underwriting criteria, a credit void exists at the bottom of the economic spectrum. PIVMELF fills this void by obtaining funding for loans through participating community banks who get Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) credit. The training program gives them the opportunity to get their business plan produced. • 10 -week business training, graduate student teachers are provided by Cal Poly_ University. • On site child care for people with children • Technical Assistance Coordinator who offers guidance and support with the business plan.. • Clients are formed up into a peer group consisting of at least five people • Mentors are available to assist the client with their business plan • Peer group formation early on in the begining of program Support/networking. • Bi -monthly support group facilitated by a MFCC. • Van pool for transportations needs Loans are funded to individual peer group members, one at a time, when all members and the mentor are satisfied that the business is viable, the borrower has he necessary skills and the business will generate sufficient cash flow to ensure does not preclude loans for smaller or larger amounts. The loans are given out by participating community banks. Bonnie Mizrahi, Assistant V.P. and CRA Officer for Foothill Independent Bank has been the person organizing the participation of community banks. Foothill Independent Bank has funded the first loan, Cal State Bank is making the second loan. PFF Bank & Trust, CEN FED, and Sumitomo have expressed interest in participating in a loan pool. WHAT IS A MICRO ENTERPRISE? Smaller than a "small business", usually home-based, low start-up and operating costs, one to five employees on average.

Since our modest beginning, over 800 'stu'dents have participated in training and performing in dance, voice, acting and modeling. They have appeared before a wide -variety of groups, community, civic, corporate, scholastic and private, and have reached over 200,000 people with our important message. Our talented troups have entertained in West Covina, Diamond Bar, Pomona, Rosemead, Los Angeles, Carson and Laughlin, Nevada to name a few. We recruit in a variety of ways, open and scheduled auditions, referrals, media responses, and from young people performing at community events. Many of our members come from local schools, however, our auditions have stimulated interest from Los Angeles, Monrovia, Pasadena and Riverside areas. In April of 1996 we premiered our theatrical arm with a successful run of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "JOSEPH AND THE AMZAING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT". In January of this year "BYE BYE BIRDIE" was performed by students of the newly formed Monte Vista Drama Guild, an after school program sponsored by Future America in cooperation with West Covina Unified School District. The formation of the Monte Vista Drama Guild has resulted in contacts from various school districts to establish similar programs. It is the dream of FUTURE AMERICA to have 30,000 young people in its fold, performing, designing and building sets for our productions, operating sound equipment and video-taping performances for cable television.

The time-consuming rigors of practice and development of artistic excellence demanded in Future America don't leave members much time for mischief. And when 800 young people from 6 to 18 dance and sing at civic, school and com- munity programs throughout Southern California, they are armed with the message of nonviolence. Ultimately, 30.000 young people will talk peace with peers, Lawson hopes. Future America is a navel approach to the pub- lic need to reduce youth violence. Andl2-year- old Chelsea Ray of Diamond Bar and Gina Miyagishima, 16, of West Covina say it works. Both girls are part of Future America's specialty ensemble, Teens For A Brighter Tomorrow. "We do more than perform," said Gina about TBT's rhythmic dancing to hip-hop and uptempo jazz tunes. "We're here to help other teen-agers and kids realize there's something they can do besides sit at home or do things they shouldn't. Seeing other kids out there encourages them" "There's other stuff you can do besides vio- lence, drugs and stuff like that,' added Chelsea, a student at Chaparral Middle School. "I think People get in trouble who have nothing to do. Seeing us might help people start using their time better and try to set goals." Lawson and teachedtralner Bobbi Dellos smiled quietly as the girls spoke, pleased that the hidden agenda had penetrated the conscious atti- tudes and actions of troupe members. Both had brought their common concerns about youth In See INCREASEIPage 6 Washington teacher bags district award Page 8 Youth Alliance seeks solutions Page 5 Photo country or Bary r.aweon Justine Frazier/Daily Bulletin Above irom left, Zeph Walters, Andrea O'Connor and Erin Walters watch the performance of Future America at Sycamore Canyon Park in Diamond Bar.

If there is no familial support system and "they're ft left eat home, in the community or elsewhere to make their own choices, either alone or with peers, they'll probably get in trouble. The majority of young people are not eq hipped with positive, mentally healthy atti- tudes to make good choices on their own," Lawson said. When he founded the program, Lawson's own chil- dren - Janette, 13, and Timothy, 12 - had been danc- ing at Delbs Dance Srudio for some time and also took part in community, school and athletic activities to stay busy. He noted their positive responses to the per- forming arts and felt dance and music could also be a way In reach other youth.

"It's also goad exercise, not only physi- cally, but mentally, too, My son Ian is only 6, but he comes to her practices and performances and has built a social network of friends here." Tammy Lohoff travels all the way from Yorba Linda to include son Ryan, 14, and daughter Alessa, 8, in Diamond Bar's Future America chapter. The children enjoy the diverse, multicultural, multiracial group of peers they've found in the program, said Lohoff. And she worries less about what herchildren are doing when they're at Future America practices and pro- grams. "We're primarily a two -income family," Lohoffe said.

Belanger, City Manager SUBJECT: Evaluation of the Heritage Tract Neighborhood Traffic Improvements ISSUE STATEMENT: Discuss the evaluation of the Heritage Tract Neighborhood traffic signing and striping improvements. RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 96-06A amending Resolution No. 96-02 to include the removal of the "No Left -Tum" sign at the Country Hills Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs Road and removal of one hundred seventy feet of red curb and retaining one hundred sixty feet of red curb along Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and Crooked Creek Drive. FINANCIAL SUMMARY: The proposed recommendation has no financial impact on the City's Fiscal Year 1997-98 budget. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: In January, 1995, the City of Diamond Bar retained the services of DKS Associates to assess and propose measures to mitigate speeding and cut -through traffic in the Heritage Tract, an area bounded by Pathfinder Road, Brea Canyon Road, and Diamond Bar Boulevard. In January, 1996, the City Council approved the recommendations under Part One of Plan I of the Neighborhood Traffic Management Study (See Attached Figure 2-1). These recommendations included the installation of various traffic signs, pavement markings, and striping. The recommendation also included the installation of multi -way stop signs at the intersections of Fountain Springs Road/Castle Rock Road, Fountain Springs Road/Brea Canyon Road, Fountain Springs Road/ Sunbright Drive, Brea Canyon Road/Cool Springs Drive, and Cold Spring Lane/Castle Rock Road. Pursuant to the direction of the City Council, the effectiveness of the abovementioned mitigation measures were evaluated. The evaluation is based on residents' and businesses' response to a follow-up questionnaire, and a Iicense plate and video survey, conducted in May, 1996. Page Two Heritage Tract Evaluation January 20, 1998 One hundred sixteen (116) of the total seven hundred five (705) questionnaires were returned, which translates to a 16.5% return rate. Based on the results of the follow-up questionnaire (Attachment 'W'), an overwhelming majority (83%) of the residents believe that traffic conditions in the neighborhood have improved. Other specific questions such as the desire to keep the "No Left -Turn" sign at the County Hills Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs Road were also asked. Eight -five (85%) of the questionnaire respondents want to see the "No Left -Turn" sign be removed permanently. The Fountain Springs Road red curbing issue was also discussed. On June 24, 1996, the Planning Commission held a meeting to discuss the parking issue and requested Dr. Cho to conduct a detailed parking study. A study, by Daniel Benson & Associates, was prepared and the results indicated that the site has a parking deficiency of approximately six vehicles during peak hours. Upon further site investigation, DKS Associates concurred that approximately 170' of red curb could be removed without compromising the safety of traffic exiting the Plaza driveway and traffic entering Diamond Bar Boulevard (See Attached Figure 2-7). On April 1, 1997, the City Council reviewed and discussed the recommendation to remove the "No Left -Turn" sign at the Country Hills Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs Road and to remove one hundred seventy feet of red curb and retaining one hundred sixty feet of red curb along Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and Crooked Creek Drive. The Council deferred making a determination and requested the Traffic and Transportation Commission reevaluate the recommendation. On July 10, 1997, the Commission reevaluated said recommendation and forwarded the same to the Council. With a 3-2 vote, the Commission decided to discuss and vote on the two recommendations together and forwarded to the Council said recommendations as they presently stand. Prepared By: David G.

C/Ansari stated she felt it was inappropriate for Council to act on this item if it had not been reviewed by the Traffic & Transportation Commission. PWD/Wentz responded that this report is consistent with the report presented to the Traffic & Transportation Commission in November, 1996 with the exception of the discussion before Council related to the red curbing modification immediately west of the Country Hills Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs Rd. Roger Meyer, 2634 Crooked Creek Dr., asked Council not to install red curbing in front of his house. He was pleased the "No Left Turn" sign will be removed from the shopping center exit on Fountain Springs Rd. Barbara Kildee, 21515 Birch Hill Dr., stated that she was in favor of a No U -Tum sign at Evergreen Springs and Birch Hill Drs. However, they are not effective. She asked for on-going enforcement. She pointed out that school students are making U-tums on Pathfinder Rd. at Evergreen Springs Dr. on weekday mornings which makes it increasingly difficult for her to exit her driveway. Craig Clute, 21217 Fountain Springs Rd., pointed out that this item stemmed from a request by neighborhood residents for vehicle speed reduction and vehicle volume reduction. Average vehicle speeds have been reduced. However, the vehicle volume remains high. DKS Associates and the Traffic & Transportation Commission recommended action tOmitigate cut -through traffic volumes. The emoved the only volume reduction measure Traffic Commission has r and presented no alternate plan. He expressed concern about the APRIL 1, 1997 PAGE 6 accuracy of the DKS Associates study with respect to cut -through traffic in his neighborhood. He asked Council to consider installation of "Please Respect the Neighborhood" signs at the shopping center egress. C/Werner moved, C/Ansari seconded, to forward staffs recommendations and DKS Associates report to the Traffic & Transportation Commission for review and recommendation back to Council. C/Ansari asked that the portion of the Council minutes pertaining to this item be forwarded to the Traffic & Transportation Commission.

OLD BUSINESS: Eva"Iuation of Heritage Tract Signing/Stripi� Leo Lee, DKS Associates and Diamond Bar resident, summarized the evaluation of the Heritage Tract Signing/Striping Improvements. The Heritage Tract evaluation study is composed of input from the residents through mail out surveys and license plate surveys performed by DKS Associates to determine the extent and severity of cut -through traffic problems within the Heritage Tract. Eighty-three percent of the residents approved of the Plan I implementation. The license plate surveys indicate that the majority of the traffic `utilizing the neighborhood streets are local traffic as defined by the Traffic Engineering Manual. Based on survey results, DKS Associates recommends that the Plan I implementations be continued with the following exception: DKS Associates and staff recommends removal of the "No -Left'Turn" sign at the Country Hills Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs Road, and 170 feet .of red curb along -Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and Crooked Creek Drive. Lupe Espinosa, -21302 Hideout Drive, thanked the -Commission for the Heritage Tract improvements. 'He stated he is opposed to removing the red curbing along the southerly side of Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and the Country Hills Towne Center driveway because in his opinionr,.the commercial building located at 2707 'South Diamond Bar Boulevard will be the only entity to benefit. JULY 10, 1997 PAGE 4 T&T COMMISSION - Elizabeth Beard, 21652 Birch`Hi11 Drive, reminded `the Commission that on April 110,-X51997,- 'she spoke ' -about the fact that ''no sooner 'had the one "hour parking limit signs on the east side of Evergreen Springs between Lost River' Drive .`a'M Birch Hill Drive they were removed by unauthorized individuals. In addition, the one hour parking limit signs on the south side of -Birch Hill'Drive at Evergreen Springs Drive were removed. She asked the Commission to consider installation of red curbing on Evergreen Springs on each side of the Diamond Bar High School service and maintenance driveway. She again stated that approximately 50 student vehicles park on Birch Hill Drive during school hours throughout the school year. She indicated there is sufficient parking available on Pathfinder Road to accommodate these vehicles. Birch Hill Drive is a residential street -and was not intended to accommodate student parking. Birch Hill Drive, Lost River Drive and Evergreen Springs Drive should all be posted for one hour parking from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, school days only. Students should be parking in designated areas. She asked the Commission to consider installation of painted crosswalks at Birch Hill Drive and Lost River Drive for student safety. She also asked that the Commission consider painting all of the curbing red from the easterly driveway of the high school to the crosswalk at Evergreen Springs Drive for the safety of vehicles departing the..driveway and making a right turn. DDPW/ Liu responded to Chair/Leonard that missing signs need to be replaced in a timely manner. He indicated he will investigate. the matter and take appropriate action. - Chair/Leonard asked that Mrs. Beard's comments be forwarded to Joe Foust, Austin -Foust Associates, Inc. .for consideration in the. Comprehensive School Traffic Access and Circulation'Study. ..--Roger Myer stated herecently conducted a neighborhood survey which resulted in 99 signatures., of residents and business owners who favor removal of the "No Left Turn".sign at -the Country Hills Towne Centerdriveway` on Fountain JULY 10, 1997 PAGE 5 T&T COMMISSION,. Springs.Road. He presented a copy of the survey to the `Commission. Ray Goger, 2643 Crooked Creek Drive, stated he favors removal of the "No Left Turn" sign at the Country Hills Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs Road.' Craig Clute stated the recommendation for removal of the red curbing on the south side of Fountain Springs Road between Diamond 'Bar Boulevard and the Country Hills Towne Center driveway is the result of a commercial parcel (Dr. Cho's building) requesting use of a residential street for parking. Dr. Cho's parking study used by DKS Associates was performed while the tenant -usage was beyond the scope of his Conditional Use Permit. Fountain Springs Road is intended to be -•a forty foot wide residential street and it is not a residential collector street. He indicated that in his opinion, the Fountain Springs Road vehicle volume is too high according to the City's General Plan and the residents who live on the street. He stated that DKS Associates did not respond to C/Mice's April 10, 1997 question regarding options for traffic relief on Fountain Springs Road. Mr. Clute cited options which were included in the original DKS Associates study. John Parker, 21637 Birch Hill Drive, stated he has a great deal of concern about the Evergreen Springs Drive and Birch Hill Drive intersection by _the Diamond Bar High School. "No Parking" and "No U -Turn" signs were installed at the intersection and there is were with the signage. He said he has not received,a return call from the high school in response to his suggestion that the east gate on Evergreen Springs Drive be monitored to allow entry only to vendor trucks and staff vehicles. He stated he has observed student vehicles blocking driveways, trash being discarded on the street, substance abuse; students 'jaywalking and blatant disregard for neighborhood traffic:- He asked for enforcement of current signage: _ C/Nice agreed that a serious problem exists in the neighborhood. He suggested that the resident's names, addresses,' telephone numbers and comments JULY 10, 1997 PAGE 6 TAT COMMISSION be forwarded'to Mr. Foust so"that he can discuss issues and present the concerns to the high school staff ... Rial-Flesher,' 20647 Larkstone Drive, suggested citizens who are not pleased with the current school traffic situation exercise their powers at the voting booth. C/Istik stated the Heritage Tract Signing and Striping Improvements study is dated April 1, 1997. He asked if Fountain Springs Road is designated a residential street in the report prior to the report being forward to the City Council. DDPW/Liu responded to C/Istik that the designation for Fountain Springs Road has been corrected and the correction is reflected in the minutes. In addition, the page in the study has been revised accordingly. C/Istik stated study indicates the volume of traffic on Cold Springs Lane at 2761 vehicles per day -and Fountain Springs Road at 2895 vehicles per day. He asked if these figures are consistent with a residential street. C/Istik further stated he believes it is important that the minutes indicate the traffic volumes exceed the volumes for a residential street and that no action is being recommended.tonight to lower the volumes.of these streets. He referred the Commission to,Figure II -9 of the study. He "indicated that certain mitigation measures such as traffic chokers that have not been implement which were recommended in. Phase II which would result 'in decreasing the traffic volumes. Leo' Leestated in response to C/Istik's comments that the City's General Plan indicates local residential streets at a"Level of Service C, the capacity is 2500 and at a Level of Service D, the capacity is 2810.` The threshold is interpreted at what level of service would typically be allowed. Level.of Service D is typically allowable. C/Istik confirmed_ that. Fountain Springs Road is 'currently operating at "a Level of Service D and JULY 10, 1997 PAGE 7 T&T COMMISSIONz,. Cold Springs Lane is operating at a level of service',D which is not a desirable level of „-service but a _crowded `level 'of' service to maintain on a residential street. Mario Sanchez summarized the Plan I April, 1996 implementations. C/Istik asked if Mr. Sanchez agrees with the residential surveys that the Plan I implementations have been effective. Mr. Sanchez stated he agrees that the Plan I implementations have been very effective. C/Nice requested inclusion of Informational Item B. Parking Compliance: 2707 South Diamond Bar Boulevard, with the evaluation of Heritage Tract Signing/Striping Improvements. DDPW/Liu stated DKS Associates has recommended removal of the red curbing on the south side of Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and the Country Hills Towne Center driveway in conjunction with the removal of the "No Left Turn" sign at the driveway. Dr. Cho's request for consideration of street parking is not related to DKS Associate's recommendation for removal of red curbing. The matter for discussion under Item B, Information Items, is ,a matter of parking compliance only. C/Istik stated that the inter -office memorandum provided to the Commission indicates that spaces were available everyday that the code enforcement . officer visited the site between May and June, 1996. TheAprilCommission packet contained a December 31,.1996 traffic study prepared by Daniel Benson & Associates .for..Dr. Cho -and .states the site contains a deficiency of six parking spaces. _ C/Nice .moved, ,C/Istik,seconded,._to separate the issue of the removal `.of :170 `feet 'of 'red curbing along .Fountain Springs Road ;from the issue of the ."No,Left Turn" sign removal. He explained his previous vote in favor' -of eliminating the red curbing from Fountain Springs 'Road due to input from neighborhood residents and DKS Associates recommendation. JULY 10, 1997 PAGE 8 T&T -COMMISSION VC/VirgiAir stated that he does notbelieve.the two issues can be separated because the removal of the red curbing is directly related to the removal of the "No Left Turn" sign. The motion failed by the following Roll Call vote: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: Nice, Istik NOES: COMMISSIONERS: Morris, VC Virginkar, Chair/Leonard ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: None C/Intik reiterated his opinion that removing the red curbing from Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and the Country Hills Towne Center driveway sets a precedent for commercial parking on residential streets. C/Morris stated he believes that any benefit to Dr. Cho by the removal of red curbing on Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and the Country Hills Towne Center driveway is coincidental. The initial request for red curbing "resulted from the recommendation for the "No Left "Turn" sign and related safety considerations. There is no precedent. No action is being taken on behalf of Dr. Cho at this meeting.' Chair/Leonard moved, C/Morris seconded, to forward. to the 'City Council the recommendation to remove the "No Left Turn" sign at the Country Hills Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs.Road, and remove 170 feet of red curb and retain 160 feet of red curb along Fountain Springs Road between Diamond Bar Boulevard and Crooked Creek Drive. C/Nice again stated his disapproval that these two 1_'.items are -not separated. -He favors eliminating the "No Left' -Turn" sign and retaining the red curbing. _`He"said he is extremely upset that he `must 'compromise his position and not vote according to his convictions. JULY 10, 1997 PAGE 9, T&T COMMISSION _ ,C/Ist.ik reiterated that the property owner (Dr. Cho)"'asked for•the parking and we ;(the Commission) are now removing it (the red curbing)'for-the property owner.

P94198.toc Executive Summary DKS Associates was retained by the City of Diamond Bar in January 1995 to assess existing traffic conditions in the neighborhood study area and develop an action plan for improvements to deter speeding and "cut -through" traffic in the neighborhood. The project study area is bounded by Pathfinder Road, Brea Canyon Road, and Diamond Bar Boulevard. In the original Neighborhood Traffic Management Study, dated November 6, 1995, DKS Associates made recommendations to address traffic issues in the study area. These issues were brought to the City's attention by soliciting input from residents by mail questionnaires and workshops. DKS in conjunction with the City developed two separate traffic questionnaires and mailed them to approximately 700 homes and businesses in the study area in the Spring of 1995. These two questionnaires and neighborhood workshop meetings were used as a tool to help the City and DKS Associates determine what type and where traffic problems exist in the study area. The Neighborhood Traffic Management Study's recommendations took a phased approach in order of extent and cost of improvements. Two phases were presented in the study. Phase I was a less costly approach and Phase II was a more costly approach to improve traffic in the study area. Phasing of these traffic control improvements was necessary because it is very difficult to predict what impacts on travel patterns the various improvements will have on the area. The City has implemented Plan I, Part One of the original study recommendations. Plan I is a two-part plan that will be used to deter speeding and decrease "cut -through" traffic in the study area. Part One of this plan was an action plan that addressed many of the traffic operation problems that occur in the study area. The types of measures that were proposed included traffic signs, pavement markings, and striping. Part One also included further multi -way stop -sign warrant studies at the intersection of Fountain Springs Road at Castlerock Road, Fountain Springs Road at Brea Canyon Road, Fountain Springs Road at Sunbright Drive, Brea Canyon Road at Coot Springs Drive, Evergreen Springs Drive at Sunbright Drive, and Cold Spring Lane at Castlerock Road. It also included installing "No Commercial Trucks" signs on Fountain Springs Road and prohibiting parking on Evergreen Springs Drive near Diamond Bar High School. This report contains an evaluation of all the improvements that have been installed under Plan I, Part One of the initial neighborhood traffic study. It also includes the results of a subsequent license plate and video survey conducted in May 1996. The purpose of the license plate survey is to determine the percentage of "cut -through" traffic in the neighborhood study area. Also, a City of Diamond Bar DIGS Associates ES -1 40200. P94198. rpt Neighborhood Traffic Study follow-up questionnaire was mailed to the residents and businesses to determine if traffic conditions in the neighborhood have improved. Based on the results from the follow-up questionnaire the majority of the residents and businesses feel that traffic conditions have improved after the installation of Plan I, Part One improvements. Based on our professional opinion and having monitored the traffic flow patterns in the neighborhood, we concur that traffic conditions have improved in the study area due to Plan I, Part One improvements and that those recommendations reached their intended mitigation. City of Diamond Bar DKS Associates ES -2 40200. P94198.rpt 1. Introduction This report presents the results of an evaluation for the effectiveness of traffic related improvements done to the Heritage Tract area in the City of Diamond Bar. The study area is bounded by Diamond Bar Boulevard, Pathfinder Road, and Brea Canyon Road as shown in Figure 1-1. These improvements were the result of recommendations made to traffic concerns identified in the Neighborhood Traffic Management Study prepared by DKS Associates, November 1995. The primary concerns identified by residents were cut -through traffic, speeding, and neighborhood/school related traffic. For the initial traffic study, DKS Associates gathered field data and other pertinent information from the neighborhood study area. Also, DKS Associates in conjunction with the City mailed two separate traffic questionnaires to residents in early 1995. Also, a steering committee comprising neighborhood citizens, City staff, and DKS Associates was initiated at the first of two neighborhood workshops held in April 1995. The purpose of these workshops were to develop a recommended action plan for the study area. There were two mitigation plans developed for this study area. The November 1995 recommendations took a phased approach in order of extent (and cost) of improvements. Phasing of these traffic control improvements was necessary because it is very difficult to predict what impacts on travel patterns these various improvements will have on the area. Plan I has two parts. Part One of Plan I is an action plan that addressed many of the traffic operational problems in the study area. The measures that were in Part One are as follows: 1. Conduct further multi -way stop -sign warrants at the intersections of Fountain Springs Road/Castlerock Road, Cold Spring Lane/Castlerock Road, Evergreen Springs Drive/Sunbright Drive, Fountain Springs Road/Brea Canyon Road, Fountain Springs Road/Sunbright Drive, and Brea Canyon Road/Cool Springs Drive; 2.

"No Parking Anytime" signs and red curbs along Fountain Springs Road from Diamond Bar Boulevard to Crooked Creek Drive. Red curbs along curve locations at Choctaw Drive, Rising Star Drive, Silver Cloud Drive, Harmony Hill Drive, and Hidden Pines Drive. Painting double yellow line striping on Cold Spring Lane from Diamond Bar Boulevard to Castlerock Road and at curve locations at Choctaw Drive, Rising Star Drive, Silver Cloud Drive, Hidden Pines Drive, Harmony Hill Drive, and Birch Hill Drive. Multi -way stop -sign warrant analyses were conducted at the intersections of Fountain Springs Road/Castlerock Road, Cold Spring Lane/Castlerock Road, Evergreen Springs Drive/Sunbright Drive, Fountain Springs Road/Brea Canyon Road, Fountain Springs Road/Sunbright Drive, and Brea Canyon Road/Cool Springs Drive in March 1996. Based on the results of the multi -way stop -sign warrant analyses, stop -signs were installed at 1) Fountain Springs Road/Castlerock Road, 2) Cold Spring Lane/Castlerock Road, 3) Fountain Springs Road/Brea Canyon Road, 4) Fountain Springs Road/Sunbright Drive, and 5) Brea Canyon Road/Cold Spring Lane in April/May 1996.

Discuss the results of a license plate and video survey to determine the percentage of "cut -through" trips in the study area, and a red curb "no parking" evaluation of the Fountain Springs Plaza commercial building located on the southwest corner of Fountain Springs Road and Diamond Bar Boulevard. 2.1 Implemented Plan I, Part One Improvements On January 9, 1996, the City Council adopted a Resolution 96-02 to implement Part One of Plan I improvements of the Neighborhood Traffic Management Study. Plan I of Part One improvements have been implemented as of mid April 1996. Figure 2-1 depicts the location and what type of improvements have been implemented. Thus far, the most complaints of the installed improvements have focused on two items. The first is the 'No Left -Tum" sign at the Country 1*Us Towne Center driveway on Fountain Springs Road and the prohibition of parking (red curb) on the south side of Fountain Springs Road from Crooked Creek Drive to Diamond Bar Boulevard. On March 20, 1996, the Department of Public Works temporarily covered the "No Left -Turn" sign at Country Hills Towne Center due to the number of complaints the City received by the residents. Based on questionnaire and input received by City staff, the majority of the residents indicated that the "No Left -Turn" sign is a major inconvenience. Another concern is the prohibition of parking (red curbing) on the south side of Fountain Springs Road from Crooked Creek Drive to Diamond Bar Boulevard. At the March 14, 1996 Traffic & Transportation Commission meeting, the property owner of Fountain Springs Plaza, located at the corner of Fountain Springs Road at Diamond Bar Boulevard contended that the red curb on the south side of Fountain Springs prohibits his customers from utilizing Fountain Springs Road as additional parking for his facility. Other concerns by residents were primarily in regards to school traffic at the intersection of Evergreen Springs Drive at Birch Hill Drive near Pathfinder Road and the disregard of the "No Parking, 7:00 AM. -3:00 P.M_, School Days Only" signs along Evergreen Springs Drive near the east school entrance.

It should be noted that our definition of a "cut -through" trip is a vehicle using a particular street as a "short- cut" to by-pass an adjacent congested arterial or intersection. A neighborhood related trip, as opposed to a "cut -through" trip, would be for example, a vehicle traveling to a school or shopping center from within the neighborhood or an adjacent neighborhood as a point of origin. The license plate survey was conducted at seven principal locations in the study area as shown in Figure 2-2. The survey was conducted on Thursday, May 9, 1996 during the morning, afternoon, and evening peak hours. Also, a weekend day peak hour (Saturday, May 11, 1996) was surveyed. The license plate number was recorded for each inbound and outbound vehicle that passed through the survey location. A license plate number match was then performed comparing the license plate numbers entering one survey location and exiting the next adjacent survey location. If a vehicle was noted entering at one survey point and exiting at the next adjacent point then this vehicle trip is assumed to be a "cut -through" trip. A license plate number that was recorded once and not recorded again was assumed to have originated or completed a trip within the neighborhood study area. Table 2-1 summarizes the total volumes, assumed "cut -through" trips, and "cut -through" trip percentages that were determined to have traveled through the study roadway. As illustrated in Table 2-1, the streets that have the most significant cut -through trips were Cold Spring Lane, Evergreen Springs Drive, and Fountain Springs Road. The highest recorded "cut - through" trips occurred along Fountain Springs Road during the morning peak hour. One hundred -eighty-nine (189) out of a total of 438 vehicle trips were "cut -through" trips on Fountain Springs Road. The result translates to 43% of traffic traveling west on Fountain Springs Road are "cut -through" trips. Our field observations indicate that a majority of these "cut -through" trips are attributed to parents and high-school age kids driving to Diamond Bar High School. Figures 2-3 through 2-6 depict the percentage of cut -through trips for the recorded time periods. Entering and exiting traffic using the Country Hills Towne Center driveway at Fountain Springs Road was counted during the license plate survey. Table 2-2 illustrates the number of entering and exiting vehicles at the driveway and the percentage of traffic and direction they came from. The highest number of trips using the Country Hills Towne Center driveway occurred during the Saturday 12:00 P.M. -1:00 P.M. count. A total of 329 vehicles entered and exited the driveway. Forty percent (40%) of the 329 vehicles used Brea Canyon Road and the rest of the traffic (60%) used Diamond Bar Boulevard. DKS staff observed the number of commercial/delivery trucks using the Country Hills Towne Center driveway onto Fountain Springs Road during the license plate survey. Three commercial/delivery trucks exited the Center's driveway and exited the neighborhood via Diamond Bar Boulevard during 6:45-7:45 A.M. hour. Two commercial/delivery trucks were seen exiting the Country Hills Towne Center driveway between the 2:15-3:15 P.M. hour and no trucks were observed during the 4-5 P.M. hour. Staff did not see any commercial/delivery trucks using Fountain Springs Road and Brea Canyon Road as a "cut -through" route to the shopping center during the license plate survey.

This is approximately 330 feet of red curb. The red curbing and "No Parking Anytime signs were installed for safety and sight distance purposes for the safe operation of the traffic signal on Diamond Bar Boulevard at Fountain Springs Road and the driveways at Country Hills Towne Center and Fountain Springs Plaza. After the red curbing was installed, the owner of Fountain Springs Plaza requested that the City remove the red curbing because his parking lot does not have a sufficient amount of parking spaces to accommodate tenants and clientele. He contended that his tenants use Fountain Springs Road for parking because at certain peak times of the day there are no available parking spaces on his lot. City staff conducted its own study to see if there were parking space deficiencies at Fountain Springs Plaza. For a two-week period City staff observed the amount of cars parked at the facility during the hours from 10:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M.. Staff observed a range from 6 to 12 available parking spaces during their observations. City staff also presented a report documenting their findings to the Traffic and Transportation Commission. This matter was referred to the City's Planning Commission. On June 4, 1996, the City Council received a recommendation from the Traffic and Transportation Commission that a portion of the red curbing on the south side of Fountain Springs Road be removed. This portion runs from the centerline of Crooked Creek Drive to the Country Hills Towne Center driveway, which is approximately 90 feet. Red curbing would still be maintained from the Country Hills Towne Center to the Fountain Springs Plaza driveway. This distance is approximately 240 feet. The City Council then referred this matter to the Planning Commission. On June 24, 1996, the Planning Commission held a meeting to discuss the parking issue and requested that the owner of the Fountain Springs Plaza conduct a detailed parking study to substantiate his contention that he has a parking problem. The owner hired Daniel Benson & Associates to conduct a parking study of the site. The results of the study indicated that the site has a parking deficiency of approximately six vehicles during their peak hour and recommended two alternatives. The first, is to remove the red curbing along Fountain Springs Road and make it a green loading zone area with a time limit and the second alternative was to remove the red curbing to allow employee parking. Upon further site investigation, DKS Associates agrees to remove approximately 100' more red curbing to allow parking. This will allow five more vehicles to park along Fountain Springs Road without compromising the safety of traffic exiting the Plaza driveway and traffic entering Diamond Bar Boulevard. This removal is approximately 100 feet more than what was originally agreed upon by the Traffic and Transportation Commission. Figure 2-7 depicts the existing red curb and the proposed removal of red curbing. Five more parking spaces will be gained by this removal of red curbing. City of Diamond Bar DKS Associates is 40200. P94196. rpt Neighborhood Traffic Study The red curbing along curve locations at Choctaw Drive, Rising Star Drive, Silver Cloud Drive, Harmony Hill Drive, and Hidden Pines Drive have been effective in prohibiting vehicles from parking along these curves. By restricting vehicles from parking along the curves, adequate street width is maintained and potential vehicle conflicts between oncoming vehicles are eliminated.

All traffic control devices such as school pedestrian crosswalk signs, pavement markings, and crossing guards were noted during our field review. Figure 2-8 depicts where the school crosswalks and school related signs are located. It should be noted that school crosswalk lines are painted yellow. The Caltrans Traffic Manual states that a pedestrian crosswalk may be painted yellow if either (a) the nearest point of the crosswalk is not more than 600 feet from a school building or the grounds thereof, or (b) the nearest point of the crosswalk is not more than 2,800 feet from a school building or the grounds thereof, and there are no intervening crosswalks other than those contiguous to the school grounds. Diamond Bar High School Diamond Bar High School is located on the southeast corner of Pathfinder Road at Brea Canyon Road. School hours are from 7:25 A.M.-2:25 P.M., Monday through Friday. There are approximately 2,500 students enrolled at the school. The left -turn out movement of the three driveway exits onto Pathfinder Road is prohibited during school hours. A "School Bus Only" entrance is located on Brea Canyon Road and one staff entrance is located on Evergreen Springs Drive. There is no student "drop-off' lane on Pathfinder Road in front of the school. Therefore many parents choose to drop-off students at the Evergreen Springs Drive entrance then proceed to make a "U -Turn" at Birch Hill Drive to get back onto Pathfinder Road. Field observations indicate that most students that use the crosswalks at Pathfinder Road/Evergreen Springs Road intersection obey the pedestrian signals. Field observations of the effectiveness of the installed "No Parking -7:00 A.M.-3:00 P.M." signs are only obeyed when law enforcement is in the area. Evergreen Springs Elementary School Evergreen Springs Elementary School is located at the corner of Evergreen Springs Drive and Castlerock Road. School hours are from 8:50 A.M.-3:05 P.M., Monday through Friday for Grades 1 through 5. Kindergarten has an early and a late session. These sessions are from 8:50 A.M.-12:30 P.M., Monday through Thursday, from 9:50 A.M.-1:45 P.M., Monday through Thursday, and Fridays 8:50 A.M.-12:10 P.M. There are approximately 700 students enrolled at the school. Two driveway entrances front on Evergreen Springs Drive. The north driveway entrance is blocked by school buses in the afternoon. Parents are only allowed to use the south driveway entrance to pick up their children in the afternoon. DKS staff observed that parent's vehicles queue from the parking lot onto Evergreen Springs Drive causing a virtual gridlock when school ends in the afternoon. A crossing guard is located at the intersection of Harmony Hill Drive and Evergreen Springs Drive and Pathfinder Road at Evergreen Springs Drive to help elementary school children cross the street safely. City of Diamond Bar DKS Associates 18 40200. P94198.rpt Neighborhood Traffic Study Castlerock Elementary School Castlerock Elementary School is located along Castlerock Road between Bronco Lane and Cool Springs Drive. School hours are from 9:00 A_M.-3:15 P.M., Monday through Friday for Grades 1 through 6. Kindergarten session hours are from 9:00 A.M.-12:20 P.M., Monday through Friday. There are approximately 700 students enrolled at the school. School pedestrian crosswalks are located at Cold Spring Lane at Castlerock Road, Cool Springs Drive at Castlerock Road, and at Brea Canyon Road at Cold Spring Lane. Crossing guards are also at Cold Spring Lane at Castlerock Road and Brea Canyon Road at Cold Spring Lane. Our field review at the time the schools begin and end show that traffic circulation is heavy, but the peak of congestion is only for a short period of time. The time of congestion occurs normally in a fifteen to twenty minute window at the start and end time of the school day. Diamond Bar High School begin and end times do not overlap with the begin and end times of Evergreen Springs Elementary School so there are no conflicts between Diamond Bar High School traffic and Evergreen Springs Elementary School traffic. Castlerock Elementary school traffic does not conflict with either Diamond Bar High School traffic and Evergreen Springs Elementary School traffic because Castlerock Elementary School's location. Based on our field review of the existing traffic control devices near all three schools, all school related signs and pavement markings are in accordance with Traffic Engineering standards such as the Caltrans Traffic Manual and the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA), Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). A review of traffic accident data of the last five - years revealed that there were no school pedestrian related accidents in the study area. The traffic and pedestrian patterns around these schools do not appear to present a safety concern. However, some of the through traffic in the subject neighborhood is associated with the schools.

The expected trips generated by the study area are compared to the actual average daily 24 hour traffic in the study area. There are approximately 700 homes in the Heritage Tract study area. A single family dwelling unit is expected to generate ten trips per day. This assumption is based on the Institute of Transportation Engineer's (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, Fifth edition, 1991. Based on this assumption, the Heritage tract is expected to generate 7,000 vehicle trips per day. The City's actual daily traffic count of all the streets in the study area is approximately 10,300 vehicles per day. This figure was determined by summing all of the current average daily traffic volumes on each street based current traffic data (1996-1994). The number of daily trips generated by the shopping center is 9,890 trips per day based on ITE's trip generation rates. This number is based on the actual square footage of the Country Hills Towne Center which is 171,200 square feet. The Fountain Springs Plaza generates approximately 625 trips per day based on the 10,800 square foot facility. When school is in session, Diamond Bar High School generates about 3,000 vehicles per day (2,500 students), Evergreen Springs Elementary generates 765 vehicles per day (700 students), and Castlerock Elementary generates 765 vehicles per day (700 students). All of these figures are based on ITE's trip generation rates. Table 2-3 below illustrates the number of daily trips generated by the existing homes, shopping center, and schools combined in the study area based on ITE's rates and compares it to the actual daily trips in the study area. It should be noted that the difference between the expected daily trips and the actual daily trips does not give the actual "cut -through" traffic in the study area. Drivers may enter and exit the shopping center on Diamond Bar Boulevard and enter and exit Diamond Bar High School on Pathfinder Road. In conclusion, the actual total number of trips in the neighborhood study area are less than the expected number of trips per ITE's figures. City of Diamond Bar DKS Associates 21 40200.P94198.rpt Neighborhood Traffic Study Average daily traffic volumes and turning movement counts at selected locations are depicted on Figure 2-9. 2.6 Roadway Capacities of Residential Streets The capacity of a roadway is measured by the maximum number of vehicles that can pass over that particular segment of roadway in 24 hours. The capacity of a roadway is affected by a number of factors including roadway type, street and lane widths, number of travel lanes, number of crossing roadways, signal cycle length, absence or presence of on -street parking, number of driveways, pavement conditions and terrain. The City of Diamond Bar's General Plan Circulation Element has an established roadway capacity for all of the streets in the City. The City's capacity for residential streets is 2,500 vehicles per day and 10,000-20,000 vehicles per day (two to four lanes) for collector streets. Collector streets are intended to carry traffic between residential neighborhoods and major arterial streets. Local residential streets are designed to serve adjacent residential land uses only. Many research studies have been conducted to determine what is the acceptable capacity of a residential street. However, speed of traffic is one of the primary factors that residents believe is the most crucial for the livability of a street. The maximum residential traffic volume which is acceptable to persons living along the street may vary from one street to another depending upon roadway width, type of dwelling units (i.e. high City of Diamond Bar DKS Associates 22 40200. P94198. rpt Neighborhood Traffic Study density versus single family homes), presence of schools and other factors. The maximum volume of 2,500 per day is, therefore, to be used as a guideline only, and sensitivity to the neighborhood and its impact needs to be carefully considered. The City's Circulation Element designates Castlerock Road, Cold Spring Lane, Evergreen Springs Drive, and Fountain Springs Road as Residential Streets. Based on the present 24 hour traffic volumes on these four streets, none of these streets are over capacity.

As was mentioned in the Neighborhood Traffic Management Study report, a choker is a device that physically narrows the street to reduce the width of the traveled way. A choker is usually made of concrete curb and gutter. The permanent installation of a choker requires revisions in existing street curblines, sidewalks, and drainage facilities as well as provisions for bicycle travel and landscaping, all of which add to the expense of installation. The cost of the installation of a traffic choker is approximately from $4,000 to $10,000 per location. The positive aspects of a choker include slowing down traffic in the vicinity of the choker and sight distance is improved by restricted parking at the choker. Negative aspects of the choker include the creation of a potential obstacle for a motorist to run into, increased emergency vehicle response times and potential negative impacts to residents living adjacent to the actual device. Figure 2-10 depicts a typical traffic choker. According to the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), "Residential Street Design and Traffic Control" manual, traffic chokers reduce the traffic volume only when they reduce the number of lanes of travel or add significant travel time to a considerable length of street. Law Enforcement and Government Policies and Qpinions of Traffic Chokers The City contacted the County of Los Angeles Fire Department to solicit their input and comments of the installation of traffic chokers on residential streets. The Fire Department had serious concerns of using traffic chokers and strongly oppose their installation. The Department said that the installation of traffic chokers would delay response times in the neighborhood and this would be detrimental to public safety. The Fire Department mentioned that at the time the Heritage Tract map was recorded it was based on the Los Angeles County Code Title #21, Subdivision Ordinance Access Requirements. If traffic chokers are installed, the streets would no longer comply the requirements of the ordinance. The County of Los Angeles Sheriffs department does not have a written policy on traffic chokers and/or speed humps. Their opinion is similar to that of the use of speed humps. The Sheriffs Department believes traffic chokers won't interfere with response time, and like speed humps, chokers will probably not have a significant lasting impact on the speed of vehicles. The City of Diamond Bar's Planning Department conducted an investigation to see if the installation of traffic chokers on residential streets is consistent with the goals of the City's General Plan. Planning staff findings were that the installation of traffic chokers are consistent with the General Plan. Reference is made to: Goal 1: Consistent with the Vision Statement, enhance the environment of the City's street network. Work toward improving the problems presented by the intrusion of regionally oriented commuter traffic through the City and into residential neighborhoods. Consider programs to reinforce the regional transportation and circulation system to adequately City of Diamond Bar 25 DKS Associates 40200.

The Planning Department indicated that the installation of traffic chokers and other related traffic control devices are Categorically Exempt from the provisions of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines. When mitigation measures were developed for the original Neighborhood Traffic Study speed humps were not considered because the City did not have a policy for the installation of speed humps or any other related traffic control devices. Since then, the City has established a "No Speed Hump" policy that was voted on by the Traffic & Transportation Commission on July 25, 1996.

Neighborhood Questionnaire This chapter discusses the results of the "follow-up" neighborhood questionnaire that was mailed to residents in the Heritage Tract study area in June 1996. 3.1 "Follow-up" Questionnaire Results DKS Associates in conjunction with City staff developed a "follow-up" questionnaire to solicit residents if the recent installation of traffic control devices have helped improve the traffic conditions in Heritage Tract. Approximately 705 questionnaires were mailed to residents and businesses in the study area. One hundred -sixteen (116) questionnaires were returned to the City which corresponded to a 16.5% return rate. The questionnaire asked residents if traffic conditions have improved in the neighborhood after the installation of traffic control devices and also asked other specific questions such as the desire to keep the "No Left -Turn" sign at the Country Hills Towne Center driveway exit at Fountain Springs Road. DKS Associates contacted the Country Hills Towne Center management company regarding the "No Left -Turn" sign installation. The management company was initially not opposed to the installation of the sign, but after the sign was posted, they received numerous complaints from customers requesting that the sign be taken down. The results of the questionnaires indicate that a majority (83%) of the residents believe that traffic conditions have improved in the study area after the installation of Plan I, Part One improvements. Eighty-five percent (85%) of the questionnaire respondents want to see the "No -Left Turn" sign at Country Hills Towne Center driveway exit at Fountain Springs Road be removed permanently. Also, 71 percent (71%) of the respondents would like to see multi -way stop signs installed at the intersections of Brea Canyon Road at Cool Springs Drive and Fountain Springs Road at Sunbright Drive. Multi -way stop signs have been recently installed at these two locations. Other comments by respondents was the desire to see more law enforcement in the Diamond Bar High School area before school begins and after school ends to enforce the speed limit and other traffic related infractions such as the failure to regard the "No U-turn" signs at Birch Hill Drive and Lost River Drive on Evergreen Springs Drive.

Findings and Conclusions This chapter discusses the effectiveness the traffic control devices that have been implemented in the Heritage Tract study area. 4.1 Effectiveness of Mitigation Measures The following are our observations of the effectiveness of each mitigation measure implemented under Plan I, Part One of the Neighborhood Traffic Study: I. Conduct further multi -way stop -sign warrants at the intersections of Fountain Springs Road/Casderock Road, Cold Spring Lane/Castlerock Road, Evergreen Springs Drive.lSunbright Drive, and Fountain Springs RoadBrea Canyon Road, Fountain Springs Road/Sunbright Drive, and Brea Canyon Road/Cool Springs Drive, Multi -way stop signs have been installed at Brea Canyon Road/Fountain Springs Road, Castlerock Road/Fountain Springs Road, Castlerock Road/Cold Spring Lane, Fountain Springs Road/Sunbright Drive, and Brea Canyon Road/Cool Springs Drive. These locations met the criteria for the installation of multi -way stop signs. Evergreen Springs Drive/Sunbright Drive did not meet the criteria due to the low traffic volume on Sunbright Drive. Based on the response from the questionnaires, all of the multi -way stop sign installations have been very favorable. 2. "No Commercial Trucks" signs on Fountain Springs Road at Brea Canyon Road and westerly of the County Hill Towne Center driveway and on Cold Spring Lane at Brea Canyon Road and at Diamond Bar Boulevard;- There oulevard; There has been some debate by residents of the effectiveness of these signs. DKS Associates contacted the Country Hills Towne Center and they have assured us and the City that trucks City of Diamond Bar DKS Associates 31 40200. P94198. rpt Neighborhood Traffic Study delivering goods to the center utilize Brea Canyon Road, Pathfinder Road, and Diamond Bar Boulevard. During our field observations, no trucks were observed using Fountain Springs Road as a by-pass route to Brea Canyon Road and beyond. 3. "No Left -Turn" sign at the driveway of Country Hills Towne Center on Fountain Springs Road; The purpose for the installation of the "No Left -turn" at this driveway was to deter traffic from using Fountain Springs Road as a "cut -through" route to Brea Canyon Road and beyond. After the City installed this sign, many residents did not like the inconvenience of this sign whatsoever. Based on the number of complaints the City was receiving, they decided to cover the sign temporarily until this study was done. Based on the questionnaire response, an overwhelming majority want to see the "No Left -turn" sign removed permanently. A "No Parking, Loading Only, " signs in front of Castlerock Elementary School, Field observations indicated that these signs have been effective at this location. No comments were made by residents in the questionnaires. S. "No U -Turn" signs at the intersection of Evergreen Springs Drive, Birch Hill Drive, and Lost River Drive, 6. "No Parking, 7.00 A.M.-3:00 P.M., School Days Only" signs on both sides of Evergreen Springs Drive between Pathfinder Road and Birch Hill Drive, Field observations indicated that these signs have not been as effective. Residents have commented that students and parents disregard these signs before Diamond Bar High School lets out. Residents have asked for more law enforcement to be in the area at these peak times to deter these infractions. 7. "No Parking Anytime" signs and/or painting red curbs along Fountain Springs Road from Diamond Bar Boulevard to Crooked Creek Drive and painting red curbs along curvatures on Rising Star Drive, Crooked Geek Drive, Harmony Hill Drive, Hidden Pines Drive at Sunbright Drive, and Sunbright Drive at Silver Cloud Drive Upon further site investigations and review of the Daniel Benson & Associates parking study, DKS Associates suggests the removal of approximately 100 feet of red curbing east of the City of Diamond Bar DKS Associates 32 40200. P9a t 98. rpt Neighborhood Traffic Study Country Hills Towne Center driveway. This removal is in addition to the 94 feet already removed by the request of the owner of Fountain Springs Plaza and approved by the Traffic and Transportation Commission. In conclusion, Plan I, Part One improvements have been effective. Results of the questionnaire revealed that an overwhelming majority of the residents agree that traffic conditions in their neighborhood have improved. Table 4-1 illustrates the effectiveness the Plan L Part One improvements. At this point we believe, Pan I- Pian Two (installation of traffic chokers) and Plan H (installation of traffic chokers and street diverters) do not need to be considered further based on the results of the questionnaire and our observance of traffic in the study area. The installation of stop signs in the study area have effectively reduced vehicle speeds in the neighborhood. In the future, the City should monitor the effectiveness of Plan 1, Part One improvements as traffic conditions change. The collection of average daily traffic volumes and the update of the City- wide Speed Survey in the neighborhood study area are valuable tools in monitoring the effectiveness of Plan I, Part One improvements. :ity of Diamond Bar 33 DKS Associates Neighborhood Traffic Study Table 4-1 Effectiveness of Plan I Part One Improvements Measure Citizen's Effectiveness Response I.

The Neighborhood Traffic Management Program was initiated by the City in response to public concern of traffic conditions on specific streets in the neighborhood. Two questionnaires were mailed to residents previously in the Spring of 1995. Results of the two previous questionnaires and neighborhood workshops led to the implementation of new traffic sins and striping improvements in January 1996. The contents of the attached questionnaire are related to the effectiveness of the new traffic signs and striping improvements that have been implemented. Again, we are asking all concerned residents to complete the enclosed traffic survey questionnaire and return it to DKS Associates (address is enclosed on the questionnaire) prior to June 28, 1996. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Mario Sanchez, DKS Associates, at (714) 543-9601. Your input is very critical to the success of this study. Sincerely, David G. Liu, P.E.

Don Gravdahl stated that in his opinion, speed humps are a liability and believes the City Attorney would recommend no speed humps in Diamond Bar. DDPW/Liu stated the city Attorney's opinion is that speed humps are a roadway design feature and not a traffic control device. He advises that a speed hump policy is dependent upon a risk benefits analysis. Consideration would be limited to speed humps on streets with a grade of 5 percent or less. DPW/Wentz stated staff's policy is no speed humps. The discussion concerns whether the Commission wishes to recommend that the City Council adopt a different policy. C/Tamaya reiterated he favors a restricted speed hump policy for streets of lass than.5 percent grade and with 75 percent of the community favoring a policy with speed humps placed in residential areas where small children are present.

The Department of Public Works has received requests for speed humps as mitigation measure for speeding on residential streets. To date, the City of Diamond Bar's practice has been to not install speed humps on any public streets. On March 14, 1996, the Traffic and Transportation Commission received and discussed the speed hump policies or the cities of Pasadena, Chino Hills, and Walnut (see attached staff report and Minutes). Included within the City of Chino Hills' comprehensive study is the comparison of the -policy criteria of the cities of Los Angeles, San Diego, Calabasas, Agoura Hills, Pasadena, Thousand Oaks, Westlake village, and the County of Los Angeles (Table 1). In addition, attached for your information is the survey conducted by the City of Chino Hills regarding the installation of speed humps (Table 2). After the Commission discussed the matter of speed humps on March 14, 1996, staff was requested to bring back a draft speed hump policy for the City.

The,City of Pasadena's policy is to continue to install.,.spead humps, provided the requirements for said installation are met.- The City Council of the City of Chiho Hills declined to adopt a policy of "No Additional Speed Humps" and a policy and procedures that would guide the installation of speed humps. On January 11, 1995, the City of Walnut adopted a policy/procedure for installing speed humps. The opinions or comments of the Los Angeles County sheriff and. Fire Departments were solicited. The Los Angeles County -Sheriff Department has responded that the Department has no written policy about speed humps (sea attached correspondence). They'do not promote the installation of humps, although there.is no objection to their installation. In their finding, the impact of'humps on speeding is temporary. The Fire Department, on the other hand, indicated speed humps have a negative impact upon their response time and speed of the. fire apparatus, paramedic rescue squads and ambulance services. However, if the City of Diamond Bar 'is considering installing Ore Two ed Humps Y 19, 1996 humps, they requestad that the be an 4,)#ernate mitigation measures that the Fire Department have an oppoz;.unity to review and approve the humps that the' humps be clearly signed/narked and visible, and the installation follow the guidelines discussed i" the November 1993 AWPA Reporter (sea attached correspondence). The City Attorney's Office pointed out various issues related to the installation of speed humps. According the City Attorney office's experience, the concerns most expressed are that humps decrease the response time for emergency -related vehicles and owners/ residents adjacent to the humps* frequently complain of noise resulting from travelling vehicles. if the City of Diamond Sar is considering the installation of humps on public streets, the Attorney strongly recommends that the city first establish rules and regulations to serve as guidelines. Prior to :for' alating a policy related to speed humps, 'it ie -imperative for the_Tiaffic and Transportation to discuss and address the following issues: 1. Do speed hupps actually reduce speed? If so, hoW long will its impact last? 2. Do speed rur�os divert traffic to adjacent/abutting streets? if so, what is the -leve! of impact? 3. What is the speed humps' impact on persons who reside in the vicinity of .the speed (i.e. noise)? 4. What is V-:& public's opinion regarding the instAillation and/or removal of speed 5. What is impact of speed humps on emeryEr.•,;y-related service and veic.les 'i.e. Fire, Police, Ambulance)? 6. What is t=F financial impact on the City? (i.e. installation, removal, ma_ntenar._a 7. What could the installation of speed humps have on the City? (s.e. street sweeping, street resUrfacir-1 programs, aesthetics, noise Leve_, recreation)? 8.

Liu: In response to your request for input on the use of speed hunts in the City of Diamond Bar, my staff has investigated this issue and has determined that the' Sheriff's Department has no written policy and no objections to the use of speed humps in any of its contract cities. We are finable to document any negative affect that speed huftVS may have on our patrol operations in the City of Diamond•Bar. The Department and this station .also does not promote the use of speed humps to control speed on residential streets. We feel that speed humps will probably not have a significant lasting impact on the speed of vehicles where they are used. information from other Sheriff's stations where speed humps are in use indicates that after a period of time motorist, become familiar with the speed humps and realize that they are able to traverse the humps without slowing. Any reduction in the speed of vehicles will most likely be temporary. The speed humps also tend to push traffic problems from one street to another. Again, let me state that we are not opposed to the use of speed humps if the City determines that they may be helpful, and the humps are not likely to have any negative impact on our ability to provide law enforcement services to the City of Diamond Bar.

Our findings indicate speed humps have a negative impact upon the response time and response speed of fire apparatus, paramedic rescue squads and ambulance vehicles. However, to improve other public safety issues, the Department is willing to allow speed humps using the following criteria: Speed humps are acceptable after all other traffic engineering, signals and law enforcement measures have.been proven ineffective. Speed hump installation plans will be rcvicwcd and approved by Fire Department staff on a case -by -cue basis. • Speed bumps will be installed with high visibility pavement marking, striping, and signage; these identifications must be continuously maintained. Speed bumps will be installed consistent with the article in the November 1993 AWPA Renk by R. Marshal Elizer, Jr., P.E. Any cbange or modification's to the guidelines will not be allowed without consultation and concurrence from the Fire Department.

SUMMARY: The proposed amendments to the Diamond Bar City Code would remove inconsistencies within the City's solid waste and recycling permitting system as well as provide the City control of heretofore unregulated waste collection activities. Also, it would extend AB 939 diversion and reporting requirements as mandated by the California Integrated Waste Management Board to unregulated handlers, i.e., construction and debris contractors and subcontractors, of materials defined by the Board as solid waste. The ordinance would specifically revise Section 8.16.030 subsection (8), Section 8.16.420, and Section 8.16.430 (d) and (f); and it would add a new Section 8.16.460.

Liu Deputy Director of Public Works CITY COUNCIL REPORT AGENDA NO. MEETING DATE: January 20, 1998 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Terrence L. Belanger, City Manager SUBJECT: An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar Amending Chapter 8.16. of Title 8 of the Diamond Bar City Code Adopting Requirements and Standards Relating to the Collection, Recycling, Transportation, and Disposal of Solid Waste, Recyclable and Compostable Materials. ISSUE STATEMENT: To approve an ordinance revising Chapter 8.16 of Title 8 of the City Code, Solid Waste, Recyclable and Compostable Materials Collection, relating to permitting and liability requirements affecting the permitted refuse haulers, and previously unregulated handlers of materials defined as solid waste by the California Integrated Waste Management Board (Board). RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt Ordinance No. xx amending Chapter 8.16 of Title 8 of the Diamond Bar City Code regarding Requirements and Standards relating to the Collection, Recycling, Transportation, and Disposal of Solid Waste, Recyclable, and Compostable materials. FINANCIAL SUMMARY: The adoption of the ordinance has no negative financial impact to the City nor its residents and businesses. BACKGROUND: The City has been engaged since incorporation with development of a practicable solid waste permit system that achieves jurisdictional compliance with applicable sanitation and recycling standards while meeting the needs and requirements of its residents and businesses. The City has worked to develop its own applicable solid waste standards, the process of which has resulted in the enactment of Chapter 8.16 of Title 8. This process has included the development of solid waste standards in 1990 and the enactment of replacement standards in 1996. Since 1996, it has become apparent that certain provisions require additional modification to bring them in line with existing solid waste collection, recycling, and composting procedures and to remove inconsistencies that negatively impact solid waste collection. The changes concern the compliance bonding requirement of permittees, the amount of liability insurance required of permittees, the issuance of permits to existing handlers of solid waste who heretofore have not been required to comply with the solid waste standards, and streamlining of various permit requirements to bring the City's system into conformance with generally accepted industry standards as identified by random survey and staff experience. Ordinance No. xx January 20, 1998 Page 2 DISCUSSION: The City's performance bond requirement is one million dollars ($1,000,000.00). The one million dollar performance bond was originally enacted when a single hauler collection system was considered. The permit requirement of a one million dollar bond was needed to protect the City's liability in the event that a single hauler were unable to fulfill collection obligations. However, this single hauler system was never implemented; and when the current solid waste standards were revised and updated in 1996, the performance bond requirement was not revised. A one million dollar performance bond is considered excessive based on a random survey conducted by J. Michael Huls, REA (JMH) of other cities' performance bond requirements. The performance bond amounts required in the surveyed cities ranged from zero to $50,000. Therefore, the proposed amendment is to change the performance bond required to a more appropriate sum of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000). The interest of the City is also to maintain a minimum limit of ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00) liability insurance coverage to protect the City against accidents and negligence by its haulers (e.g., injuries occurring during collection, collisions, and property damage). Again, as in the case with the compliance bond, the amount was set on the assumption of an exclusive franchise system in which only one hauler would operate in the City. Since there are multiple haulers, the ten million dollars requirement per hauler is considered excessive given that normally such large sums are required only of single franchise haulers in other cities surveyed by JMH. By imposing a sum of five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) for multiple haulers, the City's exposure to liability is adequately covered as the sum of the policies will amount to no less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00). This policy level is also reflective of what other communities require of their haulers in the East San Gabriel Valley. The current ordinance pertaining to the permitting system does not require construction and demolition waste subcontractors to obtain a permit to conduct collection activities in the City, nor insure the City against potential liabilities. The modified sections and the newly proposed section to the ordinance would assist the City in administrating and monitoring the collection activities. In summary, the proposed amendments to the City Code would remove inconsistencies within the City's solid waste and recycling permitting system as well as provide the City control of heretofore unregulated waste collection activities. Also, it would extend AB 939 diversion and reporting requirements as mandated by the California Integrated Waste Management Board to unregulated handlers, i.e., construction and debris contractors and subcontractors, of materials defined by the Board as solid waste; although not to the extent required of refuse haulers. The ordinance would specifically revise Section 8.16.030 subsection (8), Section 8.16.420, and Section 8.16.430 (d) and (f); and it would add a new Section 8.16.460. Prepared by: David G. Liu\J. Michael Huls ORDINANCE NO. _(I 998) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR AMENDING CHAPTER 8.16 OF TITLE 8 OF THE DIAMOND BAR CITY CODE ADOPTING REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS RELATING TO THE COLLECTION, RECYCLING, TRANSPORTATION, AND DISPOSAL OF SOLID WASTE, RECYCLABLE AND COMPOSTABLE MATERIALS.

The insurance shall protect Permittee and City from any claim for damages for bodily injury, including accidental death, as well as from any claim for damages 2 which may arise from operations performed pursuant to this Chapter, whether such operations be by Permittee itself, or by its agents, employees or subpermittees. Copies of the policies or endorsements evidencing the above required insurance coverage shall be filed with the City Clerk. All of the following endorsements are required to be made a part of the insurance policies required by this Section: (I) The City, its elected officials, employees, agents, and officers, are hereby added as insureds with respect to liability arising out of activities performed by or on behalf of Permittee. (2) This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects any other valid and collectible insurance the City may possess including any self-insured retention the City may have, and any other insurance the City does possess shall be considered excess insurance and shall not contribute with it. (3) This insurance shall act for each insured, as though a separate policy had been written for each. This, however, will not act to increase the limit of liability of the insuring company. (4) Thirty (30) days prior written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, shall be given to the City in the event of suspension, cancellation, reduction in coverage or in limits or non -renewal of this policy for whatever reason.

OVERVIEW OF REDEVELOPMENT AND THE ECONOMIC REVITALIZATION PLAN. CM/ED/Belanger reported that the next phase in the redevelopment process is to build upon the Redevelopment Area Plan by creating programs that are suggested in the Plan such as a commercial rehabilitation program, a business attraction program, a parking improvement program and implementation of a public infrastructure program. QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS CONCERNING REDEVELOPMENT AND THE REVITALIZATION AREA PLAN. Alan Wilson, 22809 Hilton Head Dr., expressed concern with prioritizing the implementation phase of the plan. He suggested that the City proceed with the K - Mart Shopping Center area first and followup with the Savon/Von's Shopping Center area. CNC/Ansari responded that the City will begin prioritizing Plan implementation in January, 1998 based upon public input and professional advice. M/AM/Herrera believed that the next step would be to look at the centers in the City and seek professional advice regarding feasibility, cost and implementation in cooperation with the business owners. DECEMBER 20, 1997 PAGE 2 TOWN HALL MEETING Wilbur Smith, 21630 Fairway Ln., said he is overjoyed to learn that no big box malls will be constructed in the City. He asked if sufficient funds can be raised through redevelopment to improve the City's existing businesses and attract niche businesses. C/VC/Ansari responded that feasibility studies will determine the extent to which funds will be available for plan implementation. CM/ED/Belanger explained that the process allows 20 years for the commitment of resources, 30 years for the plan to be in effect and 45 years for application of the resources in retiring the debt obligations that may have been incurred by the Agency. This is a process that, by design, takes time. It takes several years before a fairly significant amount of increment is expected to be available to the Agency to retire debt which suggests that most of the initial work of a Redevelopment Project Area implementation ought to be in creating programs, identifying projects and working with property owners and business owners in order to prepare to act when increment becomes available. It is anticipated that a redevelopment agency will take 2 to 5 years creating implementation programs and identifying projects while determining actual increment cash flow. The Agency will be successful if the community works toward that end. The process requires patience and prudence, and a positive attitude. Responding to CNC/Ansari, CM/ED/Belanger explained that eminent domain is a method that, in the law, is available to redevelopment agencies as a way of implementing projects and programs in the first 12 years of the agency. However, the Council and Redevelopment Agency decided that, as a matter of policy, the Agency will not use eminent domain as part of the plan implementation. He further explained that redevelopment has, as a part of its process, the setting aside of monies for housing purposes for very low, low and moderate income families. A variety of programs are available and will be created through the next phase of program creation. Because D.B. is 85% developed, housing programs under redevelopment are more likely to take on a program based implementation rather than a project based implementation including first time buyer programs, housing rehabilitation assistance, etc. Mr. Wilson expressed concern about the decrease in value of condominium projects. He asked if HUD programs and other types of programs will be available for renters to purchase property. CM/ED/Belanger responded that it is likely staff will recommend that the City not integrate redevelopment with other governmental programs such as HUD Section 8 programs. Renter to buyer programs are the types of programs that will most likely be made available through D.B.'s Redevelopment Plan. Franklin Fong, 23253 Falcon Ridge Rd., said he would like the Redevelopment Agency to consider a landscape improvement program for the water holding tank DECEMBER 20, 1997 sites within the City. PAGE 3 TOWN HALL MEETING CM/ED/Belanger responded that staff is pursuing alternatives such as contracting with muralists to camouflage the tanks. In response to C/AM/O'Connor, CM/ED/Belanger responded that Walnut Valley Water District owns the water storage tanks. The City will enter into an agreement to improve the aesthetics of the tanks. C/AM/O'Connor said she is anxious to move forward with the redevelopment process and looks forward to public involvement and input. M/AM/Herrera reiterated that the Redevelopment Agency and the Economic Revitalization Plan will greatly benefit the City and its businesses. She believed residents would like to shop in areas of the City that are more attractive and responsive to their needs. In addition, the City needs to be able to attract businesses to relocate into a community which offers them the opportunity to successfully compete. She encouraged residents to work toward overturning the lawsuit pending against the Redevelopment Agency. She thanked the citizens for their participation and staff for their diligence in organizing the town hall materials and participating in the process. MPTIAM/Chang encouraged business owners to embrace competition and the potential for a successful Redevelopment Agency. Through cooperative effort, D. B. will create and implement a successful program. CNC/Ansari pointed out that D.B. currently receives the lowest amount of return on property tax dollars of 89 cities that pay taxes to the State of California (5.29%). Redevelopment will significantly increase that return. M/AM/Herrera thanked staff and the citizens for their participation in the Town Hall meeting process. 5.
