PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Mayor Herrera. WELCOME AND INTRODUCTION: Mayor Herrera 3. OFF-SITE PARKING TASK FORCE RECOMMENDATIONS: CM/Belanger presented staffs report and recommendations on each of the Off -Site Parking Task Force motions. Captain Martinez explained that contract services provided to the City consist of a package of traffic, parking and general law enforcement duties. The Sheriffs Department's mission is to provide cost effective law enforcement services responsive to the varied characteristics of the City. The Department is dedicated to understanding the City's vision, the underlying values and specific needs, and to administer and develop enforcement services that respect the designers of the City. The Department monitors adherence by its personnel to the department's goals and standards to ensure the highest level of law enforcement service and the respect of those served. The Department constantly strives for understanding and courageous professional service in the delivery of community oriented law enforcement. The Department accepts change in meeting the specific needs of the City and directs its internal operations to aggressively pursuing internal efficiencies and flexibility necessary to deliver quality services at a reasonable cost. He presented documents that indicate the activities pursued by the Department in D.B. for the past three years. He pointed out that although arrests have increased, crime has decreased. Motion #1 -"To recommend to the City Council that enforcement should be increased, specifically to the violations discussed within the Task Force meetings." Martha Bruske said that, with respect to Motion #1, the Task Force took the posture that current funding is adequate and no overtime and no additional staff should be NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 2 TOWN HALL MEETING provided until accurate data is gathered. The Task Force found it difficult to determine how many Sheriffs staff members were assigned to D.B. The representative from the Sheriffs Department indicated that their only priority is crime prevention. She expressed confusion over Captain Martinez's presentation and did not believe that the Task Force presented Motion #1 as it has been presented in the handouts. She objected to an apparent increase in "lying in wait" because she felt it is detrimental to the image of the City. AI Rumpilla pointed out that the Sheriffs Department states that there is a decrease in crime due to increased enforcement. He pointed out that the Task Force's number one priority was "enforcement." Therefore, there does not need to be a ban against any type of parking in D.B. Instead, there needs to be enforcement of the current laws. George Galik believed that the City should address the fact that there are a lot of vehicles parked on streets and they remain there for months. West Covina has addressed this issue by having people who want to park on the street overnight to pay a fee of $5.00 and he believed D.B. should initiate the same policy. This method of control will also help the City remain crime free. Allen Wilson agreed that the City should increase enforcement as much as possible; however, he had a problem with the overtime and hiring of staff at a cost of $21,000. Wilbur Smith stated that, with respect to Attachment #1 in the Sheriffs package, he was concerned that the physical requirements for men and women are very low; therefore, he would not feel comfortable that he was receiving adequate response from an officer who was smaller than he in stature. He did not believe minimum size requirements were appropriate. C/Ansari stated that the Task Force was concerned about expanding the duties and authority of the City's Code Enforcement Officer. She believed it would be helpful for the officer to receive training and be given citation authority, which may free up some of the Sheriffs Department personnel to concentrate on other activities. C/O'Connor concurred with C/Ansari that, in order to comply with citizens request for increased enforcement, it would be prudent for the City's Code Enforcement Officer to have citation authority, particularly in residential areas. C/Huff agreed with C/Ansari and C/O'Connor that the City's Code Enforcement Officer should have citation authority. He asked why expansion capabilities of the Community Volunteer Patrol is not included in the report to Council. He believed such expansion would be cost-effective for the City. Parking has been a big issue in the City and while the City does not want crime statistics to increase, it does want to augment the officer's efforts without unduly burdening the City's finances. NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 3 TOWN HALL MEETING C/Ansari asked Captain Martinez the status of expanding the capabilities of the Community Volunteer Patrol. Captain Martinez stated that because Volunteer Patrol members are not authorized by the Vehicle Code to write parking citations, the Sheriff determined that they would not be used in such a capacity. M/Herrera asked Captain Martinez to report on the steps that will be taken to expand the scope of duties for the Community Volunteer Patrol. Captain Martinez stated that, as a result of discussions with Council Members and staff, the Sheriffs Department will expand the functions to include more observing and reporting of incidents to the Sheriffs Department. A training program will be formulated to educate the patrol members on matters such as code enforcement and activities that are currently performed by crime prevention in order to have them involved on a cooperative basis. C/Huff asked why it would be a violation of the Code for non -sworn officers to write tickets if the issue has been decriminalized. CM/Belanger stated that staff presumes that because parking violations fall under the Municipal Code within D.B., that non -sworn officers could write citations. C/Huff stated that Sheriff candidate Lee Baca indicated to him in February, 1998 that, philosophically, he did not see a problem with expanding the duties of the Community Volunteer Patrol and that, in the City of Industry, the Sheriffs Department actually contracts out to private individuals to issue parking citations in the unincorporated areas. He indicated he would like D.B. to move in that same direction. Karen Mahoney stated that she is a 17 -year resident of D.B. and a Community Volunteer Patrol officer. She indicated that there could be problems with several entities writing tickets and the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing. She believed there should be a lot of investigation of potential problems before proceeding to give various entities citation authority and at what level of tolerance citations will be issued. M/Herrera stated that it is her preference to shift responsibilities and have either the Code Enforcement Officer or the Community Service Officers issue citations. MPT/Chang preferred to have the Volunteer Patrol trained and given the authority to issue citations, especially for long term parking violations. C/O'Connor asked for a response to Mrs. Mahoney's comments. CM/Belanger stated that the administrative details would have to be worked out. NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 4 TOWN HALL MEETING For instance, rather than having all of the calls go directly to the Sheriffs Department, calls could be routed to the City Hall for complaint purposes. C/Huff suggested that there could be two boxes on the citation, one box for the Sheriffs Department and one box for City Hall, and that the officer issuing the citation would check the proper box. He would like the matter brought back to the Council with respect to how Motion #1 might be accomplished in a cost-effective manner reflecting the previous discussion. M/Herrera asked staff to consider alternatives that involve current personnel and budget. CM/Belanger stated that staff will present findings with respect to current personnel and budget as well as the cost to expand staff to conduct parking enforcement. Motion #2 - "To recommend to the City Council to begin a public information campaign to raise public awareness of existing laws; that the information would convey to the residents why these laws are in existence; and that the City Council consider a postable insert into the next City newsletter as an appropriate vehicle to accomplish this request." Roy Wilks stated that he lives in the 91789 zip code area and does not receive The Windmill. Motion #3 - "To recommend to the City Council that the Sheriffs Department be instructed to enforce the present off-site parking laws." "To recommend to the City Council that the Sheriffs Department provide detailed information regarding citations and include the following items: time of day or night, day of week -weekday or holiday, location -commercial or residential, part of the City, violation, who wrote the ticket (CSO or Deputy), violation noted by an officer or called in by a resident or other party, how many warnings were issued, action taken and when (figures by the week and by the month), did the citations increase or decrease over a period of time, a hot line for the City for accountability, cost in man-hours relating to the work involved, maps of patrolled areas and routes that were taken as they drive through the City." Council concurred to direct staff to work with the Sheriffs Department to establish a data collection system. Motion #6 -"To recommend to the City Council to consider a dispensation/pwmit program for parking unattached trailers and boats on City streets for a period of 24 hours." CM/Belanger explained how a permit process would allow residents to park on the NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 5 TOWN HALL MEETING streets as a result of special circumstances. In response to C/O'Connor, CM/Belanger acknowledged that "a current California license plate" needs to be changed on the temporary permit application. He confirmed that the permit is non -transferable and appropriate language will be added to page 2 of the application. C/O'Connor stated that, with respect to the Statement of Permit Qualifications, the last sentence should include "such action may include but not be limited to..." C/Huff believed that a permit system should be developed to address the need to outfit recreational vehicles, boats, etc. He recommended that if the Council favors a permit process, the matter be scheduled for discussion at a later time. Council concurred. Clem Ziroli, First Mortgage Corp., Fallow Field Dr., spoke about the lack of on-site parking at his facility and the fact that when D.B. was under the jurisdiction of L.A. County, his employees did not have a problem with parking on the street. He explained that it is against company policy for employees to encroach into the residential neighborhood. M/Herrera explained that Council has received complaints from neighboring residents who have a problem with employees parking in residential areas and leave their trash on the streets. Scott Lehrer, First Mortgage Corp., explained that his company is responsive to complaints. He was surprised about concerns regarding trash being thrown into the residential neighborhood. He believed the problem is caused by children going into the neighborhood. C/Ansari asked if First Mortgage Corp. has held a neighborhood meeting to discuss the concerns. CM/Belanger stated that the parking restrictions on Fallow Field Dr. have been in place for some time. This issue went before the Traffic & Transportation Commission and Council some years ago, which resulted in the current restrictive measures. The situation is not unlike several areas in the City where the County approval of commercial property burden the streets. M/Herrera encouraged First Mortgage Corp. to meet with its neighbors and attempt to resolve the current conflict. Al Rumpilla said that if the City implements a permit system, there may be more recreational vehicles parked on the City's streets, which will increase the hazards that the community is trying to eliminate. NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 6 TOWN HALL MEETING Roy Wilks expressed concern about Item A requiring all garage parking spaces to be available for parking vehicles. He did not believe the citizens of D.B. want this type of enforced restriction. Sharon Mahoney spoke about her concerns regarding the permit process. She said she parks her recreational vehicle in a commercial parking lot at a cost of $70 per month. She is retired and takes 20 trips per year, which means that if the permit system was implemented, she would be required to pay an additional $200 per year in fees to the City. She asked if she would be able to obtain an annual permit. Will the City make allowances for people who have been away from the City to have time to obtain a permit upon their return. She believed that Good Sam Club would be pleased to get involved with this issue in order to protect the rights of RV owners. She also stated that recreational vehicle owners pay a great deal of money for their registrations and that the City receives a portion of the revenue. M/Herrera responded to Mrs. Mahoney that her discussion points will be considered by the Council. CM/Belanger explained that the parking permit system that is being recommended to Council is for unattached trailers and boats and vehicles that are parked in limited parking areas that already exist (1 -hour and 2 -hour parking limitations). This recommendation does not include recreational vehicles. Lloyd Stoa stated that Code Enforcement Officers in neighboring cities like the permit system because it allows the Police/Sheriffs Departments to check vehicles that do not have permits. Some vehicles are inoperable and many are stolen vehicles that have been left on city streets. The permit system has been very effective in other cities. In response to M/Herrera, CM/Belanger stated that if Council were to consider a weight limit on residential streets, it would be in excess of 10,000 pounds. C/Huff believed it would be wise to try some of the other implementation strategies or enforcement, and save the option for consideration after implementing strategies to mitigate problems that have been identified fails to succeed. M/Herrera asked staff to bring back the matter of the permit process system for future discussion. Motion #6 -"To recommend to the City Council that no parking on street sweeping days be considered as on alternative to the problems identified." CM/Belanger explained that the current refuse collector contemplates a five -day -a - week system which would allow the City to coordinate with street sweeping so that, for a block of time on a single day, trash would be collected and the street would be swept. The idea would be to have no cars on the street when this occurs. He NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 7 TOWN HALL MEETING recommended that this be brought back to Council incorporating this recommendation with the recommendation that it would encompass the restriction for trash collection. This matter requires coordination with the refuse company and the company that conducts street sweeping. This is typical of many communities that coordinate street sweeping and trash collection in residential neighborhoods. C/Huff spoke about balancing the needs of the people with enforcement. In his opinion, this is one of the most effective methods for keeping abandoned vehicles and permanently stored recreational vehicles off of residential streets. Although the cost for installation of signs (estimated to be $136,000) seems excessive, it is a one-time cost as opposed to the ongoing cost of hiring enforcement personnel. C/O'Connor thanked Mrs. Mahoney and all of the other owners who park their recreational vehicles off-site or on their own property. She stated that, in her neighborhood, people leave their RV's parked on the street for days at a time and do not park their recreational vehicles off-site. She wants those circumstances addressed. She expressed concern about the safety of students on street sweeping days when parents cannot park their vehicles and walk their children to school. CM/Belanger stated that implementation of this type of program needs to take into account the needs of the schools, which are primarily located in residential areas for peak morning and afternoon hours. Staffs recommendation will include such an accommodation. Roy Wilks felt Council is proposing to get cars off of City streets. There are a few people who park their cars on the street for a period of time. When he walked a portion of the City passing out flyers, he found four or five cars that had been parked for an extended period of time. He believed that people make mistakes and the entire City will be penalized because of a few violators and that the City needs to enforce present laws and not adopt new ones until current laws are enforced. He also believed the streets need to be swept more frequently during the time that trees are expelling their leaves. Kevin Scherb stated that his neighborhood has problems with vehicles stored on the street. The Sheriff's Department responds after several calls. RV owners move their vehicles slightly to avoid the 72 hour violation. He asked if the recommendations cover this circumstance. C/Huff explained that street sweeping will solve the problem to a certain extent and at the same time help the City to meet the NPDES requirement. M/Herrera stated that it is difficult for people to accept and live with change. She suggested that the Council consider a phased -in process. Mike Goldenberg stated that he toured the City for over 700 hours and was very NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 8 TOWN HALL MEETING much in favor of this type of ordinance because many of the City's older neighborhoods have had vehicles parked on the streets for long periods of time, which deteriorates the neighborhood. Street sweeping will improve the neighborhoods, the quality of life and the value of the homes. Tiffany Myer, Crooked Creek Dr., stated that parents block driveways in residential neighborhoods when they drop their children off at school. Schools are built so that vehicles can drive through the school property to drop off students. M/Herrera reiterated that street sweeping will solve a number of problems including assisting the City in meeting the NPDES requirements. A number of cities are being sued for violation of NPDES requirements. In response to M/Herrera, CM/Belanger presented the following time line for discussion of the motions: Motion #1 December 15, 1998 Motion #2 Ongoing effort. Motion #3 Staff will create an internal system and report back to Council on the process. Motion #5 December 15, 1998. Motion #6 Early 1999 depending on the refuse hauler's schedule. 4. TRAFFIC PROBLEMSISOLUTIONS: CM/Belanger stated that since the opening of Grand Ave. to Chino Hills and with continuing development to the east, traffic volume issues continue to be a topic of conversation. In order to provide background for this discussion, the City retained services of consultants who have provided traffic analyses and traffic counts for Grand and D.B. Blvd. The City is a member of the Four Corners policy group, a group of cities and other public agencies that are affected by the 71, 91, 57, 60 and 15 corridors. Recently, the Four Corners Group, in conjunction with the So. Calif. Assn. of Governments (SCAG). engaged the services of Parsons Brinkerhoff, et al, to undertake a reasonable study of traffic and transportation systems and projecting out over the next 20 years in order to make recommendations regarding traffic impacts and possible mitigation. The study points out that D.B. has a trans -regional roadway corridor through the City known as Grand Ave. and D.B. Blvd. for traffic originating beyond its eastern borders. DDPW/Liu stated that, according to traffic volume studies conducted over a one week period, approximately 26% of all traffic entering the intersection of Grand and D.B. Blvd. originates from the south and the east respectively. Traffic volumes have increased 5% to 17.5% on a daily basis during the same one week period between October, 1997 and October, 1998. CM/Belanger explained that because of the inconsistency in the data with respect NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 9 TOWN HALL MEETING to morning and evening traffic counts, additional information must be gathered at all of the City's inlet points. The data points out that, generally, traffic volumes are increasing within the community and generally originating from the east. C/Ansari asked about the increase in the Saturday traffic and whether the recent freeway improvements have contributed to lower the traffic volumes within the community. CM/Belanger believed that it is generally easier for traffic to continue on surface streets rather than attempting to get back onto the freeway. Certain traffic improvements are currently underway and not yet open to the public. Once the HOV lanes on the SR 60 are opened in early 1999, additional traffic counts will be conducted to determine whether or not there are positive impacts. Steve Sasaki, Wes Pringle & Assoc., commented that this Town Hall meeting is timely with respect to current data. In some instances, there may be an easy engineering solution. The data for Grand and D.B. Blvd. indicates that it is a complicated matter. He pointed out that the Linscott Greenspan report includes daily counts. Intersection analyses rely on peak hour turning movement counts. The existing condition analysis was based on current CMP (Congestion Management Program) counts, which is a requirement of L.A. County and the cities that participate in the gas tax increase. Each county and city is subject to complying with the CMP and, as a part of that program, each two years, monitoring counts are taken. The report includes official counts of the County and the City. Future long-range projects were based upon the following factors: Growth (1 % per year), traffic effects of specific projects and major long-range projects, and the City of Industry project. As a result of the Four Corners analysis, there is consideration of a bypass road along Tonner Canyon, which is not included as a part of these analyses. C/Huff explained that Four Corners is not looking at a bypass road in Tonner Canyon but in the region connecting Grand Ave. or the 71 fwy. to the 57 fwy. Mr. Sasaki further stated that improvements to the 57/60 fwys. are not included in the data and it is assumed that whatever improvements are made to those freeways would result in some improvement to the intersection of Grand and D.B. Blvd. He stated that, in working with staff, short term or more feasible improvements were determined. Alternative #1 is related to what is identified within the Economic Revitalization Study, which has to do with lane striping changes and would not require curb widening or right-of-way acquisition. This alternative accommodates through traffic, restructuring current right turn lanes (eastbound, westbound and southbound approaches) and re -striping those lanes to provide through -lanes. This change would result in the loss of acceleration/deceleration and protected right hand turn features. Alternative #2 involves the potential for bicycle lanes at the intersections on Grand Ave. which would require no right-of-way easements or street widening but would result in the replacement of right -turn lanes with bicycle NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 10 TOWN HALL MEETING lanes. He indicated that Alternative #3 is in consideration of the effects of adding a through -lane in each direction. He explained how the curb line would be moved out using the overhead. C/Ansari expressed concern about the lane configuration on eastbound Grand Ave. between Montefino Ave. and D.B. Blvd. Mr. Sasaki indicated that under existing and future conditions, any of the alternatives will result in a level of service "F" condition. This indicates that the needs at the intersection are much greater than what can be accomplished with any of the three alternative short term improvement. Even with Alternative 3, there will be a higher traffic demand than the community can accommodate. Given the situation, the identified conditions are as follows: 1) Will a "problem" level of service "F" intersection slow the approval process for projects in Diamond Bar? 2) How is the cut -through traffic viewed from a business standpoint? He explained that a bypass road would relieve some of the cut -through traffic. Major widening of the streets (two or more through -lanes) beyond improvements identified in Alternative #3 would relieve some of the traffic issues. However, this type of improvement would present major impacts to surrounding land uses. Mr. Sasaki indicated that other methods of moving traffic from the City's side streets would be to establish shorter traffic signal lengths for intersections leading up to the D.B. Blvd/Grand Ave. intersection as well as turn pockets to improve storage lengths. He emphasized that there is not an easy fix for the intersection of D.B. Blvd. and Grand Ave. and his firm is looking for input from the citizens to determine what they want to see with respect to the City's traffic flow. For example, is it worth supporting a bypass road to fix the current situation or are the issues related to the bypass road negative to the point that the residents are willing to live with congestion at D.B. Blvd. and Grand Ave. In response to C/Huff, Mr. Sasaki explained that his firm assumed that, as a best case scenario, a bypass road would remove about two-thirds of the cut -through traffic during peak hours. With respect to signal timing, his firm considered implementation of a signal timing system to deal with peak hour concerns and did not consider particular timing patterns. Currently, the County's consideration of signal timing is conducted on a regional basis. A City controlled signal timing system may offer more opportunity for creative solutions. C/Huff said he receives complaints from residents who live on adjacent side streets and find it difficult to turn onto D.B. Blvd. and Grand Ave. at peak hours. Mr. Sasaki indicated that the five-day count conducted one year ago compared to a five-day count one year later may account for the difference in projected growth. His firm's estimation of a 1 % growth rate is based upon the County's estimation, NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 11 . TOWN HALL MEETING watching traffic growths over long periods of time, evaluation of different areas within the County, together with what is a reasonable growth rate. There is a great deal of development occurring to the east of the City. However, for better or worse, the intersection currently has an inherent amount of delay. The attraction for additional vehicles to pass through this City is limited. It is anticipated that the freeway improvements will help to keep pace with the building that is taking place. In response to MPT/Chang, Mr. Sasaki stated that projections are based on growth out to the year 2015 as well as future major projects including the Chino Hills buildout. His firm is awaiting input from the community with respect to what alternative it considers feasible before projecting costs. CM/Belanger explained that one consideration that has not been included is a reorientation of Grand Ave. to the south with the inclusion of a single large commercial site and Grand being widened to accommodate future growth. It is important to note in Mr. Sasaki's analysis, that creation of a third or fourth east/west connection will have a positive effect on the intersection. If a bypass corridor was built and the proposed improvements were made in the existing time frame, the level of service in the a.m. would be "C" and the level of service in the p.m. peak hours would be "E". What is unknown is what effect a bypass road would have with all of the widenings and right-of-ways. However, one can make presumptions that if the street is widened, the level of service would be reduced to at least a "D" and "E" level of service with a bypass corridor. He explained that a bypass corridor is another east/west corridor between Grand Ave. and SR142, Carbon Canyon Rd. Peter Ling explained how difficult it is to move from Longview Dr. onto Grand Ave. during daytime hours. Sometimes it takes one-half hour to move a quarter mile, which is absurd. He is planning to move out of his residence because of the frustration. He asked the City to make it a top priority to move quickly to deal with this worsening traffic problem. Richard Eide said he also lives in the combat zone of Longview Dr. He believed the first page of the report contains a solution to the matter: "...make it undesirable..." which means taking the lights at Longview Dr. and Grand Ave. and at Summitridge Dr. and Grand Ave. and make the signalization more favorable to the residents. He recommended that traffic officers visit the site during peak morning hours when vehicles are speeding through the area. He recommended traffic enforcement for vehicles that block Summitridge Dr. to the extent that vehicles are prevented from exiting Summitridge onto Grand Ave. He said he no longer shops locally in the evening. Instead, he shops in Chino Hills because of the ease of movement. George Galik indicated he has observed that at peak times, traffic generally comes from Chino Hills. When the 57/60 freeway becomes jammed, traffic spills onto Grand and D.B. Blvd. He believed that if the protected right turns and bicycle lanes were eliminated on D.B. Blvd. and Grand Ave. during peak hours, the traffic would NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 12 TOWN HALL MEETING move faster. In addition, he believed that traffic signals should be timed in favor of the traffic moving on the major streets during peak hours. He spoke in favor of a bypass road through Carbon Canyon which would off load the Chino and Chino Hills traffic. Rebecca Hwang read a letter addressed to Council and signed by Therina Sun, 24089 Highcrest Dr., which discussed the fact that the City's traffic problems have adversely affected Mrs. Sun's real estate business and personal life. Wilbur Smith expressed disappointment that very little has been done to mitigate the City's traffic concerns. He believed that if the City can control the signal flow from the D. B. Blvd. off -ramp to Grand Ave., it will reduce the level of irritation and make it more difficult for cut -through traffic to get through D.B. He further believed that there is plenty of opportunity for widening of the traffic lanes on D.B. Blvd. between Grand Ave. and the SR57 including the elimination of the center island, which should greatly improve the overall situation at a reasonable cost. Doug McGuire stated that he has difficulty exiting Silver Bullet Dr. onto Brea Canyon Rd. in the early morning hours. He recommended installation of a stop sign at either Copper Canyon Dr. or Silver Bullet Dr. to help the residents. He believed that even with improvements to D.B. Blvd. and Grand Ave., a bypass road in the Tonner Canyon or Carbon Canyon area will be necessary to accommodate the traffic. CM/Belanger stated that a traffic signal installation is scheduled for Silver Bullet Dr. at Brea Canyon Rd. in the spring of 1999. Heather Zeroti said she has lived in Diamond Bar for 23 years. She works in Anaheim and travels across town to visit her parents. She travels the SR 57 in the mornings and D.B. Blvd. in the evening. She asked why traffic signals are being installed at Quail Summit Dr. and Montefino Ave. on D.B. Blvd. She asked if it is possible to install a "keep clear" notification at the medical building/Century 21 E -N building on Grand Ave. between Montefino and D.B. Blvd. so that vehicles have access to tum in and out at the location. She stated that vehicles continue to travel through red lights on D.B. Blvd. The problem is not with the timing of the signals, the problem is that vehicles need to stop at the red lights to allow traffic to flow in and out of side streets. She asked when the carpool lanes will be opened on SR 60. She also asked if Chino and Chino Hills are contributing monies to D.B. for the vehicles that originate from their cities. She believed the best idea is for D.B. to make it undesirable to travel through the City. She complained that when traffic enforcement officers pull vehicles aside for infractions during peak hour traffic on D.B. Blvd. and Grand Ave., it impedes the traffic flow. Bonnie Eide said she would like the streets to come back to the City. When her children cross Grand Ave. at Longview Dr. to board the school bus, they have to dodge traffic on Grand coming from the direction of Chino Hills. Vehicles often do NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 13 TOWN HALL MEETING not stop at the red light nor do they stop in the crosswalk. She agreed that D.B. should make it undesirable for bypass traffic to use its streets to keep the children and residents safe. C/Ansari suggested that the City discuss this matter with the school district. She said that it does not seem very safe for the children to have to cross Grand Ave. to catch the school bus. She asked staff to check on this matter. Bonnie Eide did not believe it is safe for children to be on Grand Ave. during school hours. She has discussed this matter with school officials. She pays over $380 per semester for her children to ride the school bus. It is not right for the school district to ask the children to cross a busy and unsafe street to catch the bus. Mike Goldenberg stated that the City of Ontario plans to renovate 30,000 homes. The main egress street is Edison, which turns into Grand Ave. which will impact D.B. CalTrans estimates that the 71/60 freeway interchange, when completed, will be at maximum capacity. He asked Council to consider a regional bypass road. C/Huff stated that the Four Comers committee has extended its study to the 15 fwy. for consideration of Ontario's plans. He concurred with Mike Goldenberg that any projects undertaken by D.B. are minimal when compared to what is occurring outside of the City's borders and the related impacts to the community. Richard Eide said that many of his co-workers in North Orange County travel from areas beyond Chino Hills (Fontana, Riverside, etc.), who say they travel via Edison Ave. CMBelanger stated that an HOV interconnect project is planned for the early part of 2000 which is designed to alleviate the 57/60 interchange traffic merge. The HOV lanes will be opened the early part of 1999. The project was delayed due to a redesign of the 60171 interchange to accommodate seismic strengthening. With respect to a bypass road, he expected that the Four Corners study will recommend a connection between Carbon Canyon and Grand Ave. as a part of the solution. He pointed out that environmental groups are working diligently to assure that a bypass road is not constructed. The City continues to provide additional traffic control devices along D.B. Blvd. to allow residents to move in and out of their streets. Major roadway improvements are currently in design. The widening of D.B. Blvd. and Grand Ave. is not part of the City's Capitol Improvement Program. M/Herrera and C/Huff spoke about the committees that Council members are involved with in an attempt to mitigate the anticipated increase in automobile and truck traffic on the 60 fwy, which will impact D.B. C/Huff stated he has received verbal requests from residents for consideration of the following items: A traffic signal at Clear Creek Canyon Dr. and D.B. Blvd., change the tum pockets on D.B. Blvd. to favor the residents instead of the through NOVEMBER 7, 1998 PAGE 14 TOWN HALL MEETING traffic, provide an interconnect bus route from Chino Hills to Mt. San Antonio College and metrolink, increase school bus availability to decrease car traffic, and city -initiated traffic signal management. He asked staff to look at the possibility of installing a third lane from the SR 57/Grand Ave. exit easterly to Montefino Ave. with flexible barriers to allow emergency vehicle access east of Montefino Ave. C/O'Connor responded to Heather Zeroti that the traffic signal installations at Quail Summit Dr. and Montefino Ave. are to assist the residents and businesses in the area. MPT/Chang thanked residents for their participation. C/Ansari asked staff to look into the matter of using Crooked Creek Rd. exit for a student dropoff at Evergreen Elementary School, explore the current state of the real estate business with the City's brokers, pursue the issue of facilitating a joint meeting between the residents and First Mortgage, study the matter of ingress/egress on the south side of Grand Ave. between Montefino Ave. and the Lucky Center, and the issue of a traffic signal at Clear Creek Canyon Dr. She thanked citizens for their participation in the Town Hall meeting. M/Herrera thanked the residents for their valuable input. She stated that, while the City wishes to install signalization that favors its residents, she was concerned about through traffic blocking the streets due to shortened intervals. She reminded the public that Council will be considering staffs recommendations for off-site parking as well as recommendations for mitigation of the D.B. Blvd:/Grand Ave. traffic problems at its December 15 meeting. She thanked the audience members for their participation and recommendations. 7. ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business to conduct, M/Herrera adjourned the town hall meeting at 1:00 p.m. ATTEST: Mayor LYNDA BURGESS, City Clerk CITY OF DIAMOND BAR MINUTES OF THE TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION OCTOBER 13, 1998 CALL TO ORDER: Chair Leonard -Colby called the meeting to order at 7:10 p.m. at the City of Diamond Bar Conference Room A, 21660 East Copley Drive, Suite 100, Diamond Bar, California. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: The audience was led in the Pledge of Allegiance by Vice Chair Morris. ROLL CALL: I. Commissioners: Chair Leonard -Colby, Vice Chair Morris, and Commissioner Lin Absent: Commissioners Istik and Virginkar. Also Present were: David Liu, Deputy Director of Public Works; Tseday Aberra, Administrative Assistant, Rose Manela, Assistant Engineer. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: A. Minutes of the Regular Meeting of September 10, 1998. VC/Morris moved, C/Lin seconded, to approve the regular meeting minutes of September 10, 1998 as presented. Motion carried 3-0 with the following Roll Call vote: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: NOES: COMMISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: H. COMMISSION COMMENTS: Lin, VC/Morris, Chair/Leonard-Colby None Istik, Virginkar. C/Lin stated he is concerned about water on Meadowglen Road near Quail Summit Elementary School. DDPW/Liu responded that the seepage area has been there for some time. The City conducted a study approximately two years ago and has been monitoring the situation. He explained that the City is currently undertaking measures to mitigate the situation. VC/Morris asked if the mitigation measures will extend to include the Golden Springs Drive and Ballena Drive areas. OCTOBER 13, 1998 PAGE 2 DDPW/Liu indicated that several areas effected by ground water are being studied including the Golden Springs Drive and Ballena Drive areas. III. PUBLIC COMMENTS: Martha Bruske directed the Commission's attention to Diamond Bar Boulevard between Goldrush Drive and Tin Drive. Tract No. 22567 has been approved and she is concerned about cut through traffic in her Tract. She stated that it is possible to avoid Diamond Bar Boulevard by turning onto Tin Drive and proceeding through the area to Golden Springs Drive at Golden Prados Drive or to Diamond Bar Boulevard at Goldrush Drive. She recommended that the City immediately begin conducting traffic counts in the area in order to determine whether traffic lights, speed bumps or speed limits signs need to be installed. With respect to the School Traffic Study, she stated that the traffic signal installation at Goldrush Drive and Diamond Bar Boulevard was a godsend. However, people are bypassing the signal by avoiding the crowded southbound left turn lane pocket and turning west onto Goldrush Drive and making a u -turn in the residential area to gain access back onto Diamond Bar Boulevard. IV. CONSENT CALENDAR: A. Multi -Way stop signs at the intersection of Brea Canyon Road and Diamond Crest Lane. AE/Manela presented staffs report. Staff recommends that the Traffic and Transportation Commission concur with staffs recommendation that multi -way stop signs be installed on Brea Canyon Road and Diamond Crest Lane, and forward its recommendation to the City Council for approval. VC/Morris moved, C/Lin seconded, to adopt staffs recommendation to recommend to the City Council that interim multi -way stop signs be installed on Brea Canyon Road and Diamond Crest Lane. Motion carried by the following Roll Call vote: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: NOES: COMMISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: Lin, VC/Morris, Chair/Leonard-Colby None Istik, Virginkar DDPW/Liu stated this matter will be presented to the City Council for consideration at its October 20, 1998 meeting. OCTOBER 13, 1998 PAGE 3 V. OLD BUSINESS: A. City Council/Traffic and Transportation Commission Joint Study Session. Following discussion, the expectations/philosophy of the City Council and the Commission as well as, other matters of interest such as a regional traffic impacts/solutions, the school traffic study, impact of traffic on economic development, evaluation of Diamond Bar Boulevard and Grand Avenue intersection, assessment of the effectiveness of the City's current stop sign and traffic signal installation program, reduction of speed limit along arterials/roadways, compatibility of on- site/off-site parking requirements, and signal management system, off-site parking issues were requested to be included in the agenda for the City Council/Traffic and Transportation Commission Joint Study Session. VI. NEW BUSINESS: A. Breckenridge Court Recreational Vehicles. Staff recommends that the Traffic and Transportation concur with staff to recommend to the City Council the following mitigation measures: Install a red curb along the westerly side of Breckenridge Court from Summitridge Drive to Greenwich Court, excluding the frontages of 24235 and 24225 Breckenridge Court; 2. Install red curb along the easterly side of Breckenridge Court from Summitridge Drive to 20' south of the driveway of 24212 Breckenridge Court; 3. Install street signs that prohibit vehicles over six feet high from parking near the intersection of Breckenridge Court and Greenwich Court, and 4. Install street signs that prohibit vehicles exceeding a maximum gross weight of 10,000 pounds from parking on Breckenridge Court and Greenwich Court. Clara Chang, 24289 Breckenridge Court, spoke in favor of implementing the mitigation measures. She talked about the inconvenience to her when a number of recreational vehicles are parked on the street. She said she and her neighbors are very concerned about safety. Chair/Leonard-Colby responded to Mrs. Chang that the Commission's recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for action. She indicated that many residents have appeared before the Commission to express their opposition to the commercial/recreational vehicles parked on the OCTOBER 13, 1998 PAGE 4 street. Ron Hanstad, 24263 Breckenridge Court, said he was not aware that a petition was circulated in his neighborhood. He said he rents out recreational vehicles from his residence. He stated that there are usually one or two vehicles parked in front of his residence. There is a 90 foot wall that extends from his house to the corner of Breckenridge Court which is generally where the motorhomes are parked. He said he tries to keep the motorhomes at other locations as much as possible. He further stated that he used to run his business out of the City of Pomona and has tried to get a business license in Diamond Bar. He said his check and license application was returned to him with no explanation by the County of Los Angeles. He said he has tried storing the vehicles in various places and he has experienced problems with restrictive hours of operation. He indicated that he has lived on Breckenridge Court for six years, that he has had his business for eight years and that he has never had an accident. He further stated he rarely works on the motorhomes at his house other than to clean them. He uses several other locations for mechanical work. He explained that he is currently negotiating to purchase a lot in the City of Rosemead. He told the Commission that he has never had a complaint from anyone in the past four years. However, he has been harassed. Air filter lines have been severed and his truck and Corvette have been keyed. He said he is aware of the perpetrator. Anytime the Sheriffs Department has asked him to move his vehicles, he complies with their request. He stated he is just trying to make a living and he is sorry that he has created an inconvenience for some people. Mr. Hanstad responded to VC/Morris that he anticipates needing storage for only two vehicles. The best storage rate he has found is $50 to $75 per month per vehicle. Chair/Leonard-Colby asked if Mr. Hanstad has considered using a commercial facility at the Shea Center. Mr. Hanstad responded that he has looked into a commercial facility. He said they are difficult to find and usually have a long waiting list. C/Lin asked Mr. Hanstad why it has taken him six years to attempt to find another location for his motorhomes when he is aware that his business conflicts with the neighborhood. He further stated that there is more than one family that has complained to the City. Mr. Hanstad stated that the neighbor across the street is the only one who has complained to him directly. C/Lin encouraged Mr. Hanstad to locate to another storage facility as quickly as possible. OCTOBER 13, 1998 PAGE 5 Mrs. Chang said that the neighbors have nothing against Mr. Hanstad and he is doing what the City allows him to do. The residents have complained to the City because they would like the City to change the law citywide to disallow this type of use. DDPW/Liu stated the City's concern is the safety issue and sight visibility when the recreational vehicles are parked at this location. The prohibitions proposed by staff would preclude Mr. Hanstad from parking his vehicles anywhere along Breckenridge Court. Following discussion, VC/Morris moved to recommend to the City Council that they adopt staffs number 3 and 4 recommendations. VC/Morris amended his motion to defer to staff on any line of sight considerations for red curbing near the intersections involved. C/Lin seconded the amended motion. Motion carried by the following Roll Call vote: AYES: COMMISSIONERS NOES: COMMISSIONERS ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS VII. STATUS OF PREVIOUS ACTION ITEMS: VIII.

SUMMARY: The Traffic and Transportation Commission has reviewed and discussed the traffic concerns and issues along Summitridge Drive and Longview Drive during the February 12, 1998, March 12, 1998, May 14 1998 and November 12, 1998 commission meetings. The original request was to investigate the feasibility of multi -way stop signs within this neighborhood to mitigate speeding through these continuous lengths of street. A traffic investigation study was completed by Linscott, Law & Greenspan Engineers for multi -way stop warrants and alternative mitigation measures. With additional input from residents, staff noted that the 85th percentile speed collected on Summitridge Drive varied from 32 mph to 38 mph and on Longview Drive varied from 33 mph to 37 mph. In the interest of safety, as a safety measure, staff recommended to the Traffic and Transportation. Commission on November 12, 1998, that the multi -way stops be installed on both the intersections of Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive.

ISSUE STATEMENT To install mutli-way stops at the intersections of Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive and install twenty feet (20') of red curb along the west side of Longview Drive, south of Brookwood Drive. RECOMMENDATION That the City Council concur with the Traffic and Transportation Commission's recommendation and approve Resolution No. 98 -XX: "A Resolution of the City of Diamond Bar to install mutli- way stops at the intersections of Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive and to install twenty feet (20') of red curb along the west side of Longview Drive, south of Brookwood Drive." FINANCIAL SUMMARY The installation of the multi -way stops and red curb will be funded by the FY 98-99 Traffic Signing and Striping Maintenance account. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION The Traffic and Transportation Commission has reviewed and discussed the traffic concerns and issues with the residents of Summitridge Drive and Longview Drive during the February 12, 1998, March 12, 1998, May 14 1998 (minutes attached) and November 12, 1998 commission meetings. The original request received and discussed during the February 12 and March 12 commission meetings was to investigate the feasibility of multi -way stop signs at the intersections of Summitridge Drive/Thunder Trail, Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive, Summitridge Drive/Brookwood Drive, Summitridge Drive/Softwind Drive, Longview Drive/Thunder Trail and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive. The request was to mitigate speeding through these continuous lengths of street. Staff solicited proposals for multi -way stop sign warrant analysis, retaining Linsco% Law & Greenspan Engineers (LLGE) to educt the study. A warrant analysis, based on the State of California Department of Transportation's (Caltrans) criteria as outlined in the Traffic Manual, was completed for these intersections. The criteria for the warrant analysis includes 24-hour traffic count data, speed surveys, and accident history at intersections. Based on these technical criteria, none of the above intersections studied warranted a multi -way stop sign. At the request of staff, the Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive intersections were then re-evaluated using a sight -distance and safety analysis. Please refer to the attached LLGE study, dated 2/27/98, for detail information. In evaluating the safety hazard, sight distance and street geometrics were reviewed along with the speed surveys, traffic volumes and accident history. Based on these criteria, the following recommendations were made for Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Dnve/Brookwood Drive by the consultants: 1. install an R-1 Stop Sign on Breckenridge Drive at Summitridge Drive and 2. install 20' of red curb along the west side of Longview Drive, south of Brookwood Drive. The twenty feet (20) red curb will improve the sight distance for eastbound traffic on Brookwood Drive (looking south on Longview Drive). Upon further evaluation by the traffic engineer, multi -stop signs were still not warranted at these intersections. The Commission, during the May 14, 1998 meeting, invited all residents along Summitridge Drive and Longview Drive to further discuss all traffic concerns and issues along those two streets. Residents in attendance had issues and concerns along Summitridge Drive and the intersections of Grand Avenue at Summitridge Drive and Longview Drive. At this meeting, the Traffic and Transportation Commission reaffirmed their recommendation of March 12, 1998 to the City Council to install multi -way stops at the intersection of Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and to install 20' of red curb along the west side of Longview Drive, south of Brookwood Drive. With additional input from residents, staff noted that the 85th percentile speed collected on Summitridge Drive varied from 32 mph to 38 mph and on Longview Drive varied from 33 mph to 37 mph. In the interest of safety, as a safety measure, staff recommended to the Traffic and Transportation Commission on November 12, 1998, that the multi -way stops be installed on both the intersections of Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive. The Commission approved the recommendation to install multi -way stops at the intersection of Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive. Current conditions are existing stop signs at the intersecting legs of Brookwood Drive at Summitridge Drive, Brookwood Drive at Longview Drive and Thunder Trail at Longview Drive. The Commission has also requested that staff investigate the feasibility of additional multi -way stop signs along Longview Drive. Prepared By: David G. LiulRose E.

DDPW/Liu presented staffs report. Staff recommends that the Traffic and Transportation Commission receive public input and continue the matter to March 12, 1998. Carol Long, 1044 Summitridge Drive, said she is concerned about safety on her street. She asked the reason the City has recommended against installing speed humps. She requested installation of a stop sign or some appropriate measure to slow the vehicle traffic on Summitridge Drive at Breckenridge Court. DDPW/Liu explained the criteria for warranting of stop signs. Vince Corti, 1090 Summitridge Drive, said that he feels a stop sign is desperately needed at Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Court which is a blind corner. He expressed his concern for family member's safety when 1 i U FEBRUARY 12, 1998 PAGZ 3 T&T CONKI88ION attempting to back out of their driveway. -- Fred Yung, 1438 Summitridge Drive, asked for installation of a stop sign at Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Court. He said that he must assist his wife in backing out of the driveway onto the street because he is afraid an accident will occur. He stated that he cannot let his children go outside of the house because the vehicles are travelling at a high rate of speed. He indicated he does not feel safe to travel at the posted speed limit and feels in jeopardy when he makes a turn into his driveway. He implored the Commission to do anything to slow the traffic. Jesse Avella, 1124 Summitridge Drive, echoed the need for a stop sign at Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Court. He presented photographs of accidents that have occurred in front of his home. Barry Long, 1044 Summitridge Drive, spoke in favor of a stop sign installation at the intersection of Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Court. He said he is concerned for the safety of the residents as well as the City's liability since the City has been notified about the problem. The Commission discussed mitigation measures recommended as a result of traffic studies conducted in the City (speed humps and traffic separators) as well as the benefits of stop sign installations to slow vehicular traffic speed in the neighborhood tract. Chair/Leonard-Colby thanked the audience members for their comments and invited them to return for the March 12, 1998 Traffic and Transportation Commission meeting. She encouraged them to follow the process through the City Council's consideration. Following discussion, the Commission concurred to continue the matter to March 12, 1998, schedule a public hearing with notification to the residents, and recommended consideration of the following: Increased enforcement in the area of Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Court; scheduled placement of the speed trailer in the area, and promotion of a neighborhood public awareness campaign. C. and Objectives of the TraiTic and T tion Commission. Chair/Leonard-Colby ask oners to forward their rankings of the goals and objecti o staff.

He sugg enforcem in the area of Golden Springs Elementary School. IV. PUBLIC CO S: None V. CONSE CALENDAR None VL OLD BUSINESS: A. ) Multi -way stop signs at 10 local area intersections. AE/Manela presented staffs report. Staff recommends that the Traffic and Transportation Commission consider the consultant's recommendations and discuss further alternatives for mitigation measures and/or educational programs. Chair/Leonard-Colby asked for public comment. Carol Long, 1044 Summitridge Drive, said she did not receive a notice regarding tonight's meeting. She said she is glad a stop sign will be installed at Breckenridge Drive at Summitridge Drive, but she feels that the neighborhood needs additional stop signs at Thunder Trail and Brookwood Drive. She indicated it is too far between stop signs and vehicles travel very fast during weekday commute hours. She stated she feels the area needs more stop signs to slow down the traffic. Jesse Avella, 1124 Summitridge Drive, said he agrees that one stop sign at Breckenridge Drive will not do the job. Although the majority of motorists obey the speed limit, he said he is concerned that because some people travel at a high rate of speed he is concerned about the safety of the residents. C/Morris stated he feels the installation of a stop sign at Breckenridge Drive is a good first step. He said it is unfortunate that the Sheriffs Department is not represented this evening to provide input on this matter. He assured the residents that the Commission will continue to monitor the area for future needs. MARCH 12 1998 PAGE 3 T&T COMKISSION C/Lin said he shares the residents' concerns. He -indicated that the consultant's recommendation to install a stop sign on Breckenridge Drive will not slow down the oncoming traffic on Summitridge Drive which has a speed limit of 25 MPH. He pointed out that the consultant indicated an average speed of between 35 to 45 MPH on Summitridge Drive and he believes the issue is "enforcement" and not a stop sign. C/Istik said that it is unfortunate that not as many concerned residents attended tonight's meeting as had attended the February 12, 1998 meeting. He asked if the same notices were sent out. Jesse Avella said he spoke with several of his neighbors who received the notification and they understood the meeting would take place at 7:30 p.m. which may be the reason they are not yet present. Vince Corti, 1090 Summitridge, asked if the stop sign that has been approved will face Breckenridge Drive with no stop sign on Summitridge Drive. He said he does not believe a stop sign on Breckenridge Drive will solve the problem. Summitridge Drive is the street that he is concerned about and with no stop sign, motorists will continue to speed. He stated that although speed humps may be unappealing to the neighborhood, they may enhance the safety of the residents. DDPW/Liu responded to C/Istik that residents within a 500 foot radius of the intersections of Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Drive as well as, Longview Drive and Brookwood Drive were notified about tonight's meeting. C/Istik stated he concurs with staffs report and the fact that if stop signs are used to slow traffic, motorists tend to speed up between signs which causes there to increase speed to make up for having to stop. He indicated that although he favors consideration of speed humps where warranted to slow vehicles in residential neighborhoods, the city has decided not to pursue this form of mitigation measure at this time. He recommended enacting the staffs recommendations. Chair/Leonard-Colby said she understands the residents' concerns. There is a tendency for motorists to travel at a higher rate of speed on Longview Drive and although she feels the street may be a good test site for speed humps she believes the city should adopt a uniform policy. She indicated she agrees with the basis of the consultant's recommendations but she would like to have fiirther restrictive mitigation measures. She suggested the city conduct a speed survey in the area. She favors stop sign installations for the intersections of KARCH 12, 1998 PAGE 4 TAT COMKISSION Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Drive as well as, Longview Drive and Brookwood Drive. Carol Long said now that she is clear about the recommendations before the Commission, she is not happy. She indicated that when she left the February 12, 1999 Commission meeting, the residents understood that the Commission agreed to make a recommendation for stop sign installations to the City Council and that there would be enforcement in the area. She said she has not witnessed any enforcement in the area. C/Istik explained that the Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council and the City Council may or may not adopt the recommendation. Nothing happens in the way of installation or enforcement until the City Council takes an action. Chair/Leonard-Colby explained that the Commission requested additional information from staff for consideration and continued the matter to tonight's meeting for consideration and recommendation to the City Council. DDPW/Liu responded to Carol Long that an RI stop sign is a regulatory red stop sign. Carol Long stated she will not be happy until the traffic slows down on her street by whatever measure is necessary, including speed humps. She reiterated her concern that someone will be hit and killed. DDPW/Liu responded to Chairlleonard-Colby that staff related the Commissions' concerns regarding enforcement in the area to the Sheriffs Department representative who determines how the area in question will be incorporated into the overall enforcement provided to the City. He pointed out that the minutes of the February 12, 1998 minutes indicated that the Commission felt that prior to making its recommendation to the Council, there was a need for further study of the two intersections that are being discussed this evening. He suggested that the Commission may wish to conduct a separate an independent speed study of the two streets in question which would assist the residents and the City Council to understand the magnitude of the spying problem. Doug Corbett, Summitridge Drive, said that when he backs out of his driveway on weekday mornings, he must back into oncoming traffic to avoid traffic coming around the curve. He stated he is aware of two vehicle accidents and one pedestrian accident at the intersection close to his home. The hours of 1 LARCH 12, 1998 PAGE 5 TAT COMISSION concern are from about 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. during weekdays. He further stated he favors stop signs at both intersections (Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Drive, and Longview Drive and Brookwood Drive). DDP/Liu explained that the consultant's recommendation for installation of a stop sign on Breckenridge Drive at Summitridge Drive addresses the sight distance concern and does not address the speeding concern. The time necessary to complete a speed survey depends on the amount of area to be covered. C/Lin said that if installation of stop signs cause motorists decide to take alternate routes, that is okay because the residents are entitled to enjoy their neighborhood. C/Morris moved, Glstik seconded, to recommend to the City Council the installation of a three-way Stop Sign at the intersection of Breckenridge Drive and Summitridge Drive, and install 20 feet of red curb along the west side of Longview Drive south of Brookwood Drive.

MAY 12, 1998 PAGE 2 VL OLD BUSINESS: Drive and Longview Drive Traffic Issues and Concerns. bDPW/Liu presented staffs report. Staff recommends that the Traffic & Transportation Commission receive and discuss issues, comments, and concerns from residents. Beverly Pollard, 1006 Longview Drive, said her primary concern is for the eastbound traffic left turn lane at the intersection of Grand Avenue at Summitridge Drive which packs eight to 15 cars most of the day. The signal does not sequence rapidly enough to permit the queue to empty and it is not triggered by vehicles that are lined up for the left turn from Grand Avenue onto Summitridge Drive which causes automobiles to back up in the center line of traffic on Grand Avenue. She stated that the residents would like for the city to implement a permissive left turn. She said she is also concerned about the no -right turn restrictions in the evening off of Rolling Knoll Road and High Country View Drive which is one of the only ways that the residents have to access the homes in her neighborhood. She said she feels that most of the traffic that is being diverted away from Quail Summit Drive is going either around Montefino Avenue to get back to Grand Avenue or bypassing Grand Avenue and going up Goldrush Drive to gain access to her neighborhood. As a result, Goldrush Drive has an excessive amount of traffic trying to get to the Longview Drive and Summitridge Drive neighborhoods because Grand Avenue is impassable during peak hours. VC/Morris said he is concerned that the city is inconveniencing Diamond Bar residents to accommodate the Chino Hills traffic. It does not make sense that traffic is being diverted to Goldrush Drive which is a dangerous street. DDPW/Liu responded to C/Virginkar that the left turn pocket on Grand Avenue at Summitridge Drive probably accommodates about five or six vehicles. The city currently has no plans to modify the Grand Avenue landscape median in order to accommodate a larger left turn capacity. The city is concerned about liability issues with respect to protected/permissive left turn phasing. The intersection of Grand Avenue at Summitridge Drive will need to be re-evaluated. MAY 12, 1998 PAGE 3 C/Virginkar said he believes the median can be extended to accommodate additional vehicles. DDPW/Liu reminded the Commission that the City Council has directed staff to consider a study to determine how the traffic flow can be improved along the entire length of Grand Avenue. Chair/Leonard said she believes that one possible solution to the city's traffic problem is a regional bypass road. Doug Corbett, 1118 Summitridge Drive, asked about the status of a regional bypass road. DDPW/Liu stated the Four Ccorners Committee is studying the feasibility of a regional bypass roadway to alleviate the traffic congestion in Diamond Bar and surrounding areas. DDPW/Liu indicated that the feasibility study is being administered by the Orange County Transportational Authority (OCTA). Mr. Corbett asked if it would be possible to make the number one lane on Grand Avenue at Summitridge Lane an optional left turn lane. DDPW/Liu indicated to Mr. Corbett that he believes there is adequate right-of- way width to accommodate three lanes in each direction and create dual left turn lanes at the intersection. However, as he previously stated, the city will be conducting a study with respect to all intersections along Grand Avenue and no decision will be made until the study is completed. Mr. Corbett talked about traffic traveling faster than the 25 mph speed limit on Summitridge Drive. Richard Lana 1314 Summitridge Drive, said he concurs with Mr. Corbett about speeding traffic on Summitridge Drive. He said it is a serious problem and the traffic needs to be slowed down. With respect to the traffic light, he believes a permissive left tum from Grand Avenue onto Summitridge Drive would be very dangerous because of the blind hill. He asked about the feasibility of a more frequent left tum signal timing. Responding to Mr. Corbett, Chair/Leonard-Colby asked staff to look at the possibility of a more frequent and/or longer left turn signal. MAY 12, 1998 PAGE 4 Chair/Leonard-Colby stated that two residents she spoke with prior to this evenings meeting asked her if the city would consider implementing a more lengthy left turn signal on Grand Avenue at Summitridge Drive. DDPW/Liu stated that the timing of all signals in the city are constantly monitored and updated. The timing is based upon the traffic needs. All traffic signals along Grand Avenue are synchronized during peak hours. VC/Morris again stated his concern that residents are avoiding the right turn from Diamond Bar Boulevard onto Grand Avenue by taking alternate routes through the city which places a burden on the neighborhoods. He suggested that it might be better to create a better movement of traffic which would keep more of the traffic on the main arteries which are better equipped to handle it rather than moving vehicles to a street like Goldrush Drive. He said he believes there should be more emphasis to alleviate the traffic congestion on Diamond Bar Boulevard which ultimately affects the upper portion of Grand Avenue. Steven Chen, 1531 Summitridge Drive, stated that during the 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 am. hours during the week, residents of Summitridge Drive are forced to wait for a considerable length of time for the Chino Idills traffic to pass with a green light before the traffic signal allows only one or two cars at a time to turn right onto Grand Avenue. Vehicles cannot turn right on the red light because there is no break in the flow of traffic from Chino Dills. He agrees that the traffic needs to be slowed down on Longview Drive and Summitridge Drive. VC/Morris was excused from the meeting at 8:00 p.m. DDPW/Liu reported that at the March 12, 1998 meeting, the Commission considered installation of three-way stop signs on Breckenridge Court at Summitridge Drive and installation of 20 feet of red curbing along the west side of Longview Drive just south of Brookwood Drive to improve sight distance for the eastbound Brookwood Drive traffic. The multi -way stop sign was not approved. The following options were suggested: To look at a formalized public awareness program for all residents, special enforcement by the Sheriffs Department, and placement of a radar trailer on Longview Drive and Summitridge Drive. Chair/Leonard-Colby recommended installation of a stop sign on Thunder Trail at Summitridge Drive. Even though an installation is not warranted, the Commission could make a recommendation for installation to the City Council. 1 1 MAY 12, 1998 PAGE 5 V1L ►® X.

Force is preparing a Draft Commissioners to attend the LINSCOTT AW &' -1RFFNS1"-\N E N G I N E E R S MEMORANDUM TO: Rose Manela CITY OF DIAMOND BAR FROM: Keil Maberry, P.E. 0'1� LINSCOTT, LAW & GREENSPAN, ENGINEERS DATE: February 27, 1998 SUBJECT: TRAFFIC SPEEDING AND SAFETY ON LOCAL RESIDENTIAL STREETS Diamond Bar, California Pursuant to your request, Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers is pleased to submit this memorandum regarding traffic speeding and safety on local residential streets in the City of Diamond Bar. In particular, we will address the use of stop signs as a means to control traffic speeds in residential neighborhoods and provide alternatives to stop signs for controlling speeds. It is well documented and recognized by the traffic engineering profession that stop signs only reduce traffic speeds within approximately 200 feet of the stop control. In fact, drivers will actually increase their travel speeds between stop signs to make up the lost time. As a result, stop signs do not reduce speeds within residential neighborhoods unless they are spaced every 400 to 500 feet along the entire length of the roadway. It is also recognized that the only effective means to control speeding on local residential streets that are at least 36 feet wide, are police enforcement and installation of speed humps. Unfortunately, extensive enforcement on local residential streets is not realistic and implementing a speed hump program can be timely and costly (see attached ITE Speed Hump Guidelines). Traffic calming techniques, such as roadway narrowing and intersection treatments, which may control speeding, are very expensive and beyond typical local jurisdiction budgets. An important fact to. understand is that very often the driver breaking the speed law is a resident of the neighborhood unless the streets in question have a large amount of through -traffic. If the street has a large amount of through traffic intrusion, there are a neighborhood system -wide improvements which can be implemented to divert the through traffic back to the arterial system. If there is not much through traffic in the neighborhood, then it is likely that the speeder is a resident of the neighborhood. In this case, neighborhood associations can be very helpful in approaching neighbors who speed on local residential streets and can work with the police department regarding methods to improve enforcement. In conclusion, the side effects of installing unwarranted stop signs to control speeds far outweighs the minor benefits of reduced speeds at the intersection. Installing stop signs on the major street., with volumes three or more times the minor street, to create an all -way stop can result in significant environmental impacts such as increased auto emissions (pollution), noise, delay and safety.

However, based upon our stop sign warrant analysis at the intersection of Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Drive, it is recommended that a Rl Stop Sign be installed on Breckenridge Drive at Summitridge Drive. It is also recommended, based upon our sight distance evaluation, that twenty feet (20') of red curb be installed along the west side of Longview Drive south of Brookwood Drive to improve the sight distance for eastbound vehicles on Brookwood at the intersection. Our method of analysis, findings, and conclusions are described in detail below. OVERVIEW The Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive intersections were two of ten locations LLG previously evaluated for multi -way stop control. Our prior analysis, dated December 30, 1997, showed that existing average daily traffic volumes, approach speeds and accident history did not warrant the installation of multi -way stops. However, existing roadway conditions and City concerns dictated that further analysis was required to ensure the safety of the motoring public. MULTI -WAY STOP SIGN WARRANT ANALYSIS Policy/Criteria The policy for multi -way stop signs published in the Caltrans Traffic Manual outlines three conditions that may warrant installation of a stop sign. Multi -way stops should ordinarily be used only where the volume of traffic on intersecting roads is approximately equal. 1. The stop sign may serve as an interim traffic control device while preparation is underway to install a signal that has been warranted at the intersection. 2. The stop sign may be warranted when accident reports indicate that there has been five or more reported accidents within a 12 month period and such accidents include right -and left -tum collisions as well as right-angle collisions. 3. The stop sign may also be warranted when the following minimum traffic volumes have been met: a) The total traffic volume for all approaches of the intersection must average at least 500 vehicles per hour (vph) for any eight hours during an average 24 hour period. b) There must be a combined vehicular and pedestrian average volume of 200 units per hour for the same 8 hours above for the minor street and an average delay to minor street volumes of at least 30 seconds per vehicle during the maximum hour. Ms. Rose Manela CITY OF DIAMOND BAR February 27, 1998 Page 3 E N G I N E E R S c) An exception to criteria a) and b) above may be made when the 85 -percentile approach speed of the major street exceeds 40 miles per hour. In this case, the criteria in a) and b) is reduced by 30 percent. Traffic Counts To determine existing traffic volumes at the two study intersections, 24-hour machine counts were conducted Tuesday, December 2 and Thursday, December 4; 1997. Appendix A contains the raw data sheets of these counts. Tables A and B, contained in Appendix B, summarize the traffic count data for Summitridge Drive @ Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive @ Brookwood Drive, respectively. Review of Tables A and B indicate that the traffic volumes entering the Summitridge Drive/Breckenridge Drive and Longview Drive/Brookwood Drive intersections were significantly below the minimum traffic volume threshold criteria. The volume of traffic on both intersecting roads are not nearly equal. Summitridge Drive volumes are much higher than that on Breckenridge Drive, at a ratio of approximately 15:1. Similarly, Longview Drive volumes outweigh those on Brookwood Drive, at a ratio of approximately 3:1. Upon further review of these tables, it can be concluded that conditions 3a and 3b are not satisfied. Speed Surveys The critical speed or 85th percentile speed of traffic is used in sight distance analyses. The 85th percentile speed is defined as the speed at, or below, which 85 percent of the traffic is moving. Often times, since the speed limit is set lower than the 85th percentile speed, speed surveys are conducted to determine what the prevailing speed most motorists are actually traveling. Speed surveys were conducted for both of the study intersections. On Summitridge Drive, the 85th percentile speed varied from 32 mph to 38 mph. On Longview Drive, the 85th percentile speed varied from 33 mph to 37 mph. Therefore, the 85th percentile speed of the major roads (Summitridge Drive and Longview Drive) were below 40 mph. As a result, the requirements of the minimum vehicular volume condition (3c) were not reduced to - 70 percent of the original requirements. Appendix C contains the speed survey data for the two study intersections. Accident History Accident history data was researched for the past five years (between January 1, 1993 and November 30, 1997) to determine if there were five or more reported accidents within a 12 month period at either of the two intersections. Review of the traffic accident data obtained from the City of Diamond Bar and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department indicates that neither of the intersections had five or more reported Ms. Rose Manela CITY OF DIAMOND BAR February 27, 1998 Page 4 E N G I N E E R S accidents within a twelve month period. The only reported accident occurred on March 4, 1993 at the intersection of Longview Drive and Brookwood Drive. Appendix D contains a copy of this accident history record. Thus, the infrequent occurrences of accidents exemplify mild safety concerns, and therefore does not warrant the installation of a multi -way stop at either intersection. STOP SIGN WARRANT ANALYSIS The policy for installing a stop sign published in the Caltrans Traffic Manual outlines seven conditions that may warrant the installation of a stop sign. 1. On the less important road at its intersection with a main road where application of the normal right of way rule is unduly hazardous as evidenced by accidents susceptible to correction by STOP signs. 2. On a county road or city street at its intersection with a state highway. 3. At the intersection of two main highways. The highway traffic to be stopped depends on approach speeds, volumes, and turning movements. 4. On a street entering a legally established through highway or street. 5. On a minor street where the safe approach speed to the intersection is less than 10 miles per hour. 6. At an unsignalized intersection in a signalized area. 7. At other intersections where a combination of high speed, restricted view, and accident record indicates a need for control by the STOP sign. The Caltrans Traffic Manual also states that because the STOP sign causes a substantial inconvenience to motorists, it should be used only where warranted. In applying these standards to the study intersections, it was determined that a RI Stop is warranted on Breckenridge Drive @ Summitridge Drive. None of the above mentioned criteria applied to the intersection of Longview Drive and Brookwood Drive, since Brookwood is currently strop controlled at Longview Drive. Based on our field analysis, the fifth warrant criterion was satisfied at the intersection of Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Drive. We determined that the safe approach speed on Breckenridge Drive to the intersection is less than 10 mph. Therefore, we recommend the installation of a RI Stop Sign on Breckenridge Drive @ Summitridge Drive. Ms. Rose Manela CITY OF DIAMOND BAR February 27, 1998 Page 5 E N G I N E E R S STOPPING SIGHT DISTANCE Per the Caltrans Highway Design Manual (HDM), the minimum stopping sight distance is defined as the distance required to bring a vehicle, traveling at a certain speed, to a stop after an object on the road becomes visible by the driver of a vehicle. Stopping sight distance is measured from the driver's eyes, assumed to be 3.5 feet above the pavement surface, to an object 0.5 -foot high on the road. Using Table 201.1 -from the Caltrans High --way Design Manual and the conservative weekday 85th percentile speed of 40 mph for both Summitridge Drive and Longview Drive (obtained from the speed survey in Appendix C), the required stopping sight distance is 300 feet. Table 1 summarizes the stopping sight distance standards, found in Table 201.1 on page 200-1 of the Caltrans HDM, relative to design speed. TABLE 1 SIGHT DISTANCE STANDARDS ��esign x'�Sfopp�ng ,' ;S ee m` h `:j Si tit Distance ft 20 125 25 150 30 200 35 250 40 300 45 360 50 430 Upon applying the stopping sight distance standards to each intersection, it was found that the intersection of Summitridge Drive and Breckenridge Drive has an adequate stopping sight distance for the conservative design speed of 40 mph. Therefore, the stopping sight distance does not warrant any changes to the existing intersection control type. On Longview Drive and Brookwood Drive, the stopping sight distance was also adequate. However, in order to maintain a minimum sight distance for eastbound vehicle on Brookwood Drive looking south on Longview Drive, it is recommended that twenty feet (20') of red curb be installed along the westside of Longview Drive south of Brookwood Drive. Conclusions It is understood that the local residents would desire installation of multi -way stops at the two study intersections to reduce vehicular speeding. However, the side effects of installing unwarranted stop signs to control speeds far outweighs the minor benefits of reduced speeds at the intersection. Installing stop signs on the major street, with volumes three or more times the minor street, to create LINSCOTT LAIN �� GREENSPAN Ms. Rose Manela CITY OF DIAMOND BAR February 27, 1998 Page 6 an all -way stop can result in significant environmental impacts such as increased auto emissions (pollution), noise, delay and safety. Recommendations Based on the site visits, existing street improvement plans, traffic volumes, speed studies, accident history, and stopping sight distance evaluation of the twostudy locations, neither of the study intersections warrant multi -way stop signs. However, it is recommended that a RI Stop Sign be installed on Breckenridge Drive @ Summitridge Drive. It is also recommended, based upon our sight distance evaluation, .that twenty feet (20') of red curb be installed along the west side of Longview Drive south of Brookwood Drive to improve the sight distance for eastbound vehicles on Brookwood at the intersection.

The meetings were attended by more than 800 residents. The overwhelming concern was excessive vehicle speeds on City streets. Residents requested the installation of various traffic. control devices to manage traffic in the residential neighborhoods. In response, the CityCouncil adopted a three-year $3 million Neighborhood Traffic Safety Program (NTSP).- In subsequent years, funds have been appropriated for traffic safety improvements associated with the plan. TRAFFIC ACCIDENT STATISTICS Approximately 10,000 traffic accidents were reported annually within the City during the period 1993 through 1995'. Of these 15% listed unsafe speed as the primary collision factor; pedestrians are involved in about 430 accidents per year. Injury resulted in about 1,600 of the accidents (16%) resulting in injuries to about 2,400 persons. While the accident statistics for the City compared favorably with those of other cities with comparable population, it is clear that considerable pain and suffering can be eliminated by improving traffic safety. CO-ORDINATED EFFORT Improving traffic safety requires a co-ordinated effort comprised of engineering, enforcement and education programs. The NTSP primarily addressed the engineering component. Simultaneously the Police Services Agency stepped up enforcement and implemented innovative enforcement programs. The engineering and enforcement programs were presented at the preceding sessions at this conference. This paper describes the City's public education and information campaign FUNDING FOR CAMPAIGN While there were some funds available in the NTSP for public education, the City was successful in obtaining a $138,500 grant from the Office of Traffic Safety for a focussed effort. The campaign objectives and achievements to -date are summarized below. CAMPAIGN OBJECTIVES 1. Decrease the incidents of speeding on residential streets and thereby reduce the number of traffic accidents, especially those involving pedestrians to less than 500 per year. o Develop and distribute 10,000 to 20,000 bilingual brochures and posters. 2. Encourage defensive driving and vehicle safety in a proactive manner. o Develop and distribute about 10,000 product giveaways such as key chains, bumper stickers, rulers, etc., with catchy slogans. 3. Dissuade speeding and other violations -by influencing a change in behavior (correcting bad habits) and attitude through public information campaigns. o Develop, copy and secure at least 40 placement of public service announcements on buses, bus benches and other type of roadside signs. o Develop and place messages on billboards on space to be donated by local billboard companies. 4. Promote care for the community and value for life and property. o Staff a telephone reporting line for residents to call to provide information, report repeated traffic infractions, etc. o Sponsor a driving event for contestants to demonstrate knowledge of traffic safety rules and regulations. 5. Inform and educate the public, in particular children and senior citizens, of proper walking and cycling procedures. o Develop and place banners near local schools, and in heavily used local shopping and commercial districts. o Sponsor 2 bicycle events for children. 6. Promote what the City has done in response to the citizen testimony at the public meetings in 1994. o Write and disseminate press releases and public service announcements. o . Sponsor five information/community meetings in the same areas as the five original meetings to discuss progress and (perceived) impact of plan implementation. MPLEIyIENTATION Posters and brochures for the campaign were developed by consultants. Based on testimony at the public meetings, it was decided at the beginning of the project that a concerted effort be made to reach the young drivers, i.e., at the high school level. Analysis of accident statistics confirmed this decision. Ten percent (10%) of all reported accidents involved a 16 to 19 -year old driver. The numbers are more evident when the number of licensed drivers is factored. As shown in the attached table, the 16 to 19 years old age group of Oakland drivers have the highest potential for being involved in traffic accidents (resulting in injury and/or fatality) in Oakland. a i 0 j Two brochures were developed for distribution. The DRIVE COOL brochure was developed for distribution to the high school and young adult drivers. The DRIVE SMART brochure was developed for other adults. Copies of the brochures and the poster are included (Please pick up originals of these at the tables outside). The poster and the Drive Smart brochure were also printed in Chinese and Spanish. The consultant also developed "OAKLAND IT'S OUR TOWN, LET'S SLOWIT DOWN' as the main slogan for the campaign. Banners with this slogan have been printed for deployment at selected locations. Bumper stickers, key chains, rulers and pencils with the above messages have been obtained for distribution. (These are also available at the tables outside). The campaign was announced at a press conference on May 13, 1996 at Oakland High School. The following have been accomplished to date: 1. Posters, brochures and other products were distributed at the 3 -day Festival at the Lake (Lake Merritt) in June, 1996 and at the 2 -day Chinatown Street Fest in August , 1996. 2. Posters and brochures were distributed to all the public libraries in Oakland, to several businesses and at some neighborhood meetings. 3. Bannershave been installed at six high schools. These will be rotated to other schools later. 4. Bicycle Rodeo: A consultant was retained to conduct a 2 -day bicycle cle rodeo over a October weekend at 2 school sites. About 100 young children received training (in small groups) in safe bicycle riding on an urban street (model street set up in a parking lot). 5. Telephone Reporting Line: A special line was not set up because the Police Department already had a line for residents to call in with complaints. These were used to identify areas for increased enforcement. OUTSTANDING ITEMS 1. High School Presentation/Driving Event: The late start of the project and the teachers strike early this year resulted in the postponement of these events to the spring of 1997. The current plan is for addressing individual driver education classes in each high school. 2. Public Service Announcements on Buses/Billboards: We are currently n8 workiwith AC Transit (the local transit service provider) to place bumper stickers and other posters on their buses. We have also requested billboard space from the local billboard company. Other outstanding items are in the planning stages. PROJECT SCHEDULE A two-year project ending in March 1997 was initially planned. Because of the late start and delays in some events, we have requested an extension to September 1997. l . l PROJECT BUDGET Personnel Cost ...................... $ 30,600 Contractual Services .................. 47,400 Graphic Artist Copy Writing Photography Translation Services Public Relations Professional Other Direct Costs ................... 60,500 Driving/Bicycle events Campaign Products Banners Printing Billboard Development Postage Program Total ..................... $138,500 PROGRAM EVALUATION The real measure of the positive impact (benefits) of the project is a measurable reduction in accidents I and/or noticeable change in driver behavior. A computerized traffic accident records system (set up by a separate OTS grant) is available for accident analysis. Testimony at the community meetings at the completion of the project will be another barometer of the impact of the program. c N d V U CL ", t9 P 0l Q Q 0 � N O O_ d O � a� v 0 Z _ Z d R 01 41 O in C t0 C, f O C Q r d _ `. + Ln C^ O N d W F- Q O..

December 1, 1998 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City council Terrence L. Belanger, City Manager INTRODUCTION OF THE DRAFT SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE November 20, 1998 A subdivision of land for the purpose of sale, lease or finance is governed by the California Subdivision Map Act. Upon incorporation the City adopted the Los Angeles County Subdivision Code to guide citizens, developers and decision makers through the process of land subdivision. A new Subdivision Code has been drafted specifically tailored for the City of Diamond Bar. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Draft and recommends its adoption by the City Council. BACKGROUND: A subdivision is any division of land for the purpose of sale, lease or finance and is governed by the California Subdivision Map Act. Prior to the division of any property a tentative map of the proposed subdivision must be approved by the local jurisdiction. The City controls the proposed design and improvements of the subdivision and may condition its discretionary approval to include dedications, payment of in -lieu fees, and construction of public improvements. The Act distinguishes between major subdivisions, often referred to as a tract map, (five or more parcels) and minor subdivisions, also known as a parcel map (four or less parcels). In accordance with the Subdivision Map Act, the processing of a subdivision map is governed by local ordinance. The City of Diamond Bar has utilized the Los Angeles County Subdivision Code to review and process proposed maps since 1989. Map approval is generally a three step process incorporating: 1. Processing and approval of a tentative map 2. Approval of a final map 3. Recordation of the final map. The processing of a tentative map incorporates environmental, engineering and planning review prior to a noticed public hearing before the Planning Commission. The Map Act grants authority to the City to regulate and control the "design" and "improvement" of a subdivision. Design is defined as the alignment of streets, street grades, street widths, drainage, location of utilities, location of easements and right-of-ways, lot sizes and configurations, vehicular access, grading and park or other dedications. Improvement is defined as street work and utilities to be installed by the subdivider on land to be used for public or private streets and highways for the use of the lot owners and/or area traffic and drainage needs. specific requirements contained within the Map Act which may be imposed by the City include park land, school and street dedications, fees for drainage and sewer facilities, reimbursement agreements, grading and erosion control requirements, and offsite improvements. The Planning Commission and City Council must make specific findings in its consideration of the proposed tentative map. Pursuant to Section 66474 of the Subdivision Map Act the decision making body shall deny approval of a tentative map if it makes any of the following findings: 1. The proposed map is not consistent with applicable general and specific plans. 2. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is not consistent with applicable general and specific plans. 3. The site is not physically suitable for the type of development. 4. The site is not physically suitable for the proposed density of development. 5. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. 6. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is likely to cause serious public health problems. 7. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision. 2 The Commission recommends a course of action to the City Council. Upon approval of a tentative map the subdivider proceeds to fulfill the conditions of approval within the timelimits specified. The City Council consideration of a final map is required if the final map has complied with all conditions and is in substantial conformity with the approved tentative map. The subdivision ordinance is intended to supplement, implement and work in conjunction with the Subdivision Map Act. The Articles contained within this ordinance establish our City regulations for tentative and final map processing, subdivision design and improvement requirements, lot mergers, and other aspects of land division in compliance with the Subdivision Map Act. PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW: The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing review of the Draft document. The Commission recommends that the City Council adopt the Subdivision Ordinance as submitted. In the process of reviewing the Subdivision Ordinance, the Planning Commission and the staff made changes to the draft document. These changes are noted in the following manner: Planning Commission changes are shown by a bold extended typeface; staff changes are shown by a bold condensed typeface; Planning Commission deletions are shown by a strike -out with an asterisk where not accompanied by revised text; and staff deletions are shown by struck -out text. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council receive a presentation from staff, open the public hearing, receive testimony and continue the hearing to December 15, 1998.

RECITALS. 1. On April 18, 1989, the City of Diamond Bar was established as a duly organized municipal corporation of the State of California. Thereafter, the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar adopted its ordinance No. 14 (1990), thereby adopting the Los Angeles County Code as the ordinances of the City of Diamond Bar. Title 21 of the Los Angeles County Code contains the Subdivision Code of the County of Los Angeles now currently applicable to subdivisions within the City of Diamond Bar. 2. On July 25, 1995, the City of Diamond Bar adopted its General Plan. The General Plan establishes goals, objectives and strategies to implement the community's vision for its future. 3. The City of Diamond Bar has determined that the existing subdivision regulations contained within the County of Los Angeles Subdivision Code are outdated and ill-suited to meet the City's needs in terms of the type of development envisioned by the General Plan. 4. The Planning Commission of the City of Diamond Bar conducted duly noticed public hearings with regard to the draft Subdivision Code. The public hearings were held on August 26, September 2-, September 6, and September 9, 19971 September 23, 1997, October 14, 1997, October 27, 1997, November 12, 1997, January 27, 1998 and February 10, 1998. 5-. The Planning Commission considered, individually and collectively, the four draft articles comprising the City of Diamond Bar's draft Subdivision Ordinance established pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act, Section 66410 et seq of the California Government Code. The Subdivision Ordinance consists of four draft Articles, specifically: I. Purpose and Applicability of Subdivision Ordinance; II. Subdivision Review Procedures; III. Subdivision Design and Development. 1 IV. Subdivision Ordinance Definitions The Draft Subdivision Ordinance shall hereby supersede Title 21 of the Los Angeles County Code now applicable to subdivisions within the City of Diamond Bar. 6. The Planning Commission, after due consideration of public testimony, staff analysis and the Commission's deliberations has determined that the Draft Subdivision Ordinance attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated by reference into this Resolution implements the goals of the City. The Planning Commission has duly considered these issues so as to meet the City's needs in terms of the type of development envisioned by the General Plan. 7. All legal prerequisites to the adoption of this resolution have occurred. B. Resolution. NOW, THEREFORE, it is found, determined and resolved by the Planning Commission of the City of Diamond Bar as follows: 1. This Planning Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct. 2. The Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council adopt the Draft Subdivision Code for the City of Diamond Bar. 3. The Planning Commission hereby determines that there is no substantial evidence that the draft Subdivision Ordinance will have a significant effect on the environment and therefore a Negative Declaration (ND 97-3) has been prepared, pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and the guidelines promulgated thereunder, pursuant to Section 15070 of Article 19 of Chapter 3 of Division 13 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. 4. The Planning Commission hereby specifically finds and determines that, having considered the record as a whole, including the findings set forth below, there is no evidence before this Planning Commission that the draft Subdivision Ordinance proposed herein will have the potential of an. adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the wildlife depends. Based upon substantial evidence, this Planning Commission hereby rebuts the presumption of adverse effects.contained in Section 753.5 (d) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. 5. The Planning Commission finds and determines that the draft Subdivision Ordinance is consistent with the City of Diamond Bar General Plan. K The Secretary of the Planning Commission shall: a. Certify to the adoption of this Resolution; and b. Transmit a certified copy of this resolution to the City Council forthwith.

ISSUE STATEMENT Consideration of an amendment to an existing contract to provide construction administration/inspection services for the traffic signal installation project on Diamond Bar Boulevard @ Montefino Avenue and Quail Summit Drive. RECOMMENDATION That the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to execute an amendment with Warren Siecke for the Diamond Bar Boulevard at Montefino Avenue and Quail Summit Drive Traffic Signal Installation Project, in an amount not to exceed $36,232.00. FINANCIAL SUMMARY $250,000 has been allocated in FY 1997-1998 budget from Prop C funds. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION At the June 16, 1998 City Council meeting, Council awarded the inspection service contract to Warren Siecke for Professional Inspection Services for the Diamond Bar Boulevard at Montefino Avenue and Quail Summit Drive Traffic Signal Installation Project, in an amount not to exceed $15,732.00 with a contingency amount of $1,600.00. The construction start date was on September 8, 1998 and the date of completion is the end of December. To date, the project is 70% complete. Warren Siecke's original proposal included approximately 3 hours of inspection per working day for the anticipated 64 working day project schedule. Due to some of the contractor's construction methods and the complicated conditions encountered in the field, the inspection time required has increased to approximately 7 hours of inspection per working day. In other instances, the utility agencies did not provide adequate information about their underground facilities and were also marked incorrectly in the field. Some underground facilities encountered Page 2 Warren Siecke Amendment December 1, 1998 did not appear on any records. This has required the plans to be modified by the consultant and signal poles to be relocated to provide adequate clearance for their foundations. In order to provide adequate oversight, inspection and administration of this project, it is requested that the contract amount for this Professional Inspection Service be increased by $20,500 for a total contract amount of $36,232.

Montefino Avenue Diamond bar Boulevard & Quail Summit Drive Dear David: �'X!//d✓T � G Pursuant to our recent discussion, please consider this request for an increase in fees to complete our inspection and construction administration services for the subject project. Purchase order No. 7492 authorized a fee of $15,732.00. The contractor is allowed ninety calendar days to complete the work which equates to 64 working days. The fee was based on an estimated average of approximately three hours of inspection per working day. Through October, we have averaged nearly seven hours per working day. We have billed $15,188.00 for services provided through September 300'. It is estimated the purchase order amount will need to be increased by $20,500.00 to complete the project. This estimate is based on the following: Item Hours/Fees Amount Inspector Traffic Engineer Billing For 6/15/98 — 6/30/98 3.5/$329.00 $329.00 Billing For 7/i/98 -- 7/331/93 21.5/$1,6,'7.00 1 10.0/$940.00 $2,617.00 Billing For 8/1/98 — 8/31/98 16.5/$1,287.00 1.0/94.00 $1,381.00 Billing For 9/1/98 — 9/30/98 129.0/$10,062.00 8.5/$799.00 $10,861.00 To Be Billed For 10/1/98 — 10/31/98 159.5/$12,441.00 3.5/$329.00 $12,770.00 Estimate to Complete Project 90.00/$7,020.00 10.0/$940.00 $7,960.00 Estimated Total 416.5/$32,487.00 36.5/$3,431.00 $35,918.00 Current Purchase Order Amount $15,732.00 Estimated Shortfall $20,186.00 Requested Increase to Cover Contingencies $20,500.00 I regret having to make this request, but there have been several extenuating circumstances that provide justification. They include the following: Continuous Inspection - It has been necessary to have the inspector on the job almost continuously. Based on our observation of the contractor's work methods, we believe additional 20142 CANYON DR., YORBA LINDA, CA 92686 0 714/970-6247 • FAX 714/779-1644 vigilance is necessary to ensure the City receives a quality project. The factors contributing to this need include the following: ■ The conduit boring operation had to be observed continuously because the contractor resisted the requirement to install the conduit at 18" minimum depth as mandated by state specifications. - ■ The contractor attempted to use substandard conduit coupling methods. ■ We found damaged conduit that had been installed during the inspector's absence. ■ On occasion, the contractor did not have the correct equipment on the job to complete the work. For example, a tamper to compact excavation fills. ■ The contractor disregarded working hour restrictions when the inspector was not there. Underground Utility Conflicts - While the contractor's methods caused problems, there have been other factors beyond his control that required additional coordination and resolution by the inspector. These include: ■ Adequate information about underground utilities was not provided to the engineer by the utility agencies. ■ Underground Service Alert did not mark all of the underground utilities. Others were marked incorrectly. ■ Underground utilities were encountered that do not appear on any records. This may require us to modify the plans and relocate signal poles to provide clearance for pole foundations. As of this writing, nearly all of the underground conduit has been installed. However, there are still conflicts between underground utilities and proposed signal pole foundations. Upon resolution of these problems, we are optimistic the project will progress to completion without serious delays. We recognize the cost of inspection is significantly greater than normal, however, we believe, that in view of the items listed above, the additional cost of our continuous involvement will offset the potential cost of future problems caused by poor construction. If you need more information, please call me. Sincerely, Zc� Warren C.

The developer intends to lease a portion of the project to a Fortune 500 company which will employ approximately 400 employees and has requested Agency assistance in acquisition of the site. Mayor Pro Tem Chang arrived at 5:18 p.m. CM/Belanger reported that the project was approved by the Planning Commission at its October 13, 1998 meeting. One of the goals of the Redevelopment Agency Plan adopted in July 1997 was to attract and enhance business within the project area. This project, as proposed, accomplishes the goal of business expansion/business attraction within the project area and meets the goals and objectives of the Redevelopment Project Area Plan. Chair/Huff declared the Public Hearing open. Dave Sears, Tooley & Co., presented an overview and renderings of the proposed project. One of the key criteria in attracting key tenants to the area is to provide a development with an over -standard parking facility. This development has 4.5/thousand parking stalls per rentable sq. ft. He presented a letter from Travelers Insurance Group stating that Travelers has committed, subject to the outcome of OCTOBER 22, 1998 PAGE 2 JOINT COUNCIUREDEV.

The report describes the general aspects of the financial agreement and any other pertinent terms that would have an impact upon these deliberations. John Yonai, Rosenow, Spevecek Group, reviewed the economic value of the project. The proposed terms of the land contract that Tooley & Co. has entered into with the owner of the property is at a cost of approximately $12.25/sq. ft. for a total of $5,666,012.50. The developer is seeking a write-down of approximately $1.966 million. Review of the detailed construction estimate provided by Tooley & Co. indicates that their costs are reasonable and that the amount of assistance required supports their request and provides a reasonable return to the developer. The amount of land write-down from about $12.25/sq. ft. for land to $8.00/sq, ft. is justified. Dave McEwen, Straddling, Yocca, Carlson & Rauth, reviewed the terms of the draft of the Disposition and Development Agreement which provides for acquisition of real property from AEW, the current property owner and the immediate and simultaneous sale of that property to Tooley & Co. for a discounted price of the amount of the Redevelopment Agency assistance to this project. In order to accomplish this transaction in a timely manner, the developer is advancing the full acquisition cost of the property and in turn is taking back a note in the amount of $1.966 million. The note provides for periodic payments of two installments to the developer upon satisfaction of certain conditions precedent. The first condition is the production of a lease with The Travelers Group which provides for a 10 -year term when they relocate to the proposed facility. At that time, the first installment of the developer loan is due. Upon completion of the project and the receipt of a favorable judgement in the pending litigation, the balance of the developer note is due and payable. He pointed out that the timing of the balance payment is important because the terms of the agreement provide for an adjustment of the full amount of the payment by the Redevelopment Agency should the developers cost of developing the project be less than 90% of the OCTOBER 22, 1998 AGENCY PAGE 3 JOINT COUNCIUREDEV. projected cost. He explained other provisions contained within the development agreement. AM/Herrera asked for clarification of the due date of the first installment. Mr. McEwen responded that the first installment payment is due upon presentation of a fully executed lease from The Travelers Group. In response to AM/Chang, Mr. McEwen confirmed that there is no upward adjustment of the Redevelopment Agency's assistance in the event that the developer's costs exceed the amount of the projected hard costs. AM/O'Connor asked for an explanation of the Redevelopment Agency's Revolving Loan Fund. Mr. McEwen explained that, within Redevelopment Law, there is a provision for the City to make a loan or a grant to the Redevelopment Agency for some amount of money. That money can then be used by the Redevelopment Agency to acquire land or prepare land for development in the Redevelopment Project Area. The Redevelopment Revolving Fund was established by Council on Tuesday, October 20, 1998. Mr. Sears verified for AM/O'Connor that the actual contract amount is $5,666,012.50. Mr. McEwen and CM/Belanger discussed proposed changes and corrections with respect to the Disposition of Development Agreement. In response to AM/O'Connor, Mr. McEwen stated that the pending litigation has gone to trial and all persons interest have been named. There is no money involved in the pending litigation and the only potential remedy against the Agency is invalidation of the Redevelopment Plan. In response to AM/O'Connor, Mr. Sears explained that the parking size was increased with the intent that it would render the project more marketable for future tenants. No additional costs are associated with construction of the additional parking. In response to Chair/Huff, Mr. McEwen stated that the language of the agreement should be limited solely to the monies contained in the OCTOBER 22, 1998 AGENCY PAGE 4 JOINT COUNCIUREDEV. Redevelopment Revolving Fund. The documents will be cleaned up and adjusted before final execution. Art O'Daly congratulated the City and the Redevelopment Agency for attracting a quality organization to the City.
