TO: THE HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE
TRAFFIC AND PARKING COMMISSION
FROM: EMILIO M. MURGA, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKSy /���
SUBJECT: INSTALLATION OF THIRD THROUGH TRAFFIC LANE AT THE
INTERSECTION OF IMPERIAL HIGHWAY AND M.L. King Jr. BLVD.
PURPOSE:
That the Traffic and Parking Commission support staff's
recommendation to install third through traffic lanes at the
intersection of Imperial Highway and M.L. King Jr. Boulevard.
BACKGROUND:
Staff, through the City Manager's office, has received a letter
from Mr. Robert Walter, Vice President of Facilities of Saint
Francis Medical Center, requesting installation of a new, right turn
only lane along the west side of M.L. King Jr. Boulevard from Imperial
Highway to Cesar Chavez Lane (see attached copy).
ANALYSIS:
Presently, curbs on both sides of Imperial Highway, east and west
of M.L. King Jr. Blvd., are marked red, and third through traffic
lanes have been installed. The lanes have reduced unnecessary
queuing at the intersection and have improved the overall
capacity of the intersection (see attached sketch).
Although installation of a right turn only lane, on the west side
of M.L. King Jr. Boulevard, between Imperial Highway and Cesar
Chavez Lane, would help ingress and egress of traffic into and
out of the Saint Francis facility, however, it does not fit the
general scheme of installing third through lanes at intersections
to improve the capacity and reduce queuing and delays.
By installing a third through traffic lane along the west side of M.L.
King Jr. Boulevard, not only the purpose of improving the egress and
ingress traffic movements into and out of Saint Francis Medical Center
facility will be achieved but the traffic conditions at the
intersection will also improve. Delay at the intersection will
decrease and capacity will increase. Presently, when vehicles slow
down or stop to complete a turn movement into and out of St. Francis
Medical facility, lane No. 2 would become blocked. The third through
traffic lane will free up lane No. 2, therefore improving the through
traffic movement.
The impact of designating red curbs to allow for the installation of
the third through lane on existing parking conditions is negligible.
Majority of the curb is presently designated as red curb. Only seven
parking spaces will be eliminated (see attached map).
St. Francis Medic enter is committed to paoor the cost of
It installing new pavement markers, removing existing markers,
installing red curbs and other associated cost for installing
third through traffic lanes.
Installation of red curb and third through lanes on the west
side of M. L. King Boulevard between Norton Avenue to 200 feet
south, and on the east side between Cesar Chavez Lane to
800 feet north, is not feasible. Several small businesses that
do not have off- street parking accommodations are located
along these sections of M.L. King Boulevard, therefore
by installing red curbs the only available parking spaces
for the patrons will be eliminated.
Therefore, staff recommends installation of third through
traffic lanes at the west side of M.L. King Jr. Blvd. from just
north of Imperial Highway to Cesar Chavez Lane, and on the east
side, between Imperial Highway and Norton Avenue (see attached
sketch).
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Traffic and Parking Commission support staff's
recommendation to install third through traffic lanes at the
intersection of Imperial Highway and M.L. King Jr. Boulevard.

CITY MANAGERS
OFPCE
In our continuing efforts to improve patient service, we have
found it necessary to improve control of vehicular access to the
campus. The City of Lynwood provided the first step in that
improvement by creating a free left -turn pocket along the Martin
Luther King Jr. Blvd. /Medical Center frontage as well as
extending the no parking zones adjacent to those entry points.
Because of recent increases in security incidents, we determined
it necessary to relocate our MLR Jr. Blvd. entry control gates.
However, in doing so, we omitted considering the effect on
south -east bound MLR Jr. Blvd. traffic. The potential exists for
right -turn traffic onto the campus from southeast -bound vehicles
to back up on MLK Jr. Blvd., thus disrupting other Blvd traffic.
To remedy the situation, we propose creating a right -turn only
curb lane by eliminating the curb parking along the campus
frontage. The cost should be minimal and, with your approval,
would be assumed solely by St. Francis Medical Center.
One additional requirement is also necessary to better direct and
control the flow of emergency vehicles to the Emergency Room. As
you may recall, the traffic control plan coordinated with the
City provided for separate vehicle entry points for emergency
vehicles and public traffic. In practice, however, we continue
to have difficulty educating the myriad of ambulance drivers,
paramedics, and sheriff's deputies on which entry to use. This
creates grave danger to pedestrians on campus, as well as robs
crucial minutes from the ill and accident victims being
transported in the emergency vehicle.
To remedy the situation, we propose posting an appropriate
instructional sign, along with the Right Turn Only sign suggested
above, to direct the emergeny vehicles to the correct entry.

For your consideration, we are also receiving cost proposals to
re -sod and install new irrigation in the fairways along the
Blvd. Should this prove to be affordable, we would proceed with
your approval at our expense.

SCHEDULED MATTERS
6. Review of Roadway visibility Conditions,
Imperial Highway at Stockwell Drive.
Mr. Oskoui explained that in the Traffic and Parking Commission
meeting of April, 1992, Commissioner Cunningham asked staff to
study the intersection of Imperial Highway at Stockwell Drive for
possible visibility problems. Mr. Oskoui then described the
traffic study for the subject location. He explained that the
study was completed based on several factors, such as, the
guidelines of the State of California, Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) traffic manual section; for analyzing
roadway visibility at locations where roadway has a curvature in
its alignment and traffic accident history. Mr. Oskoui then
concluded that staff is of the opinion that the intersection of
Imperial Highway at Stockwell Drive is presently operating
safely. However, staff will monitor the incoming accident
reports and will report to the Commission any accidents involving
turn movements for further consideration.
Commissioner Cabaret asked if the crossing guards assigned at
Imperial Highway and Stockwell Drive participated in the study,
for an example, being interviewed to see if they have experienced
any traffic related problems.
Commissioner Cunningham expressed concern that frequently, large
trucks travel in the eastbound direction on Imperial Highway from
Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, at high speeds. He exclaimed
that the high speeding of the trucks pose potential problems.
Commissioner Cunningham directed his concern regarding the trucks
to Deputy Thompson and further stated that it is not unusual also
to observe trucks traveling side by side at high speeds on
Imperial Highway from Atlantic Avenue.
INFORMATIONAL ITEMS
Mr. Oskoui provided the Commission with the monthly report status
for May, 1992 and provided information on the goals set by each
Public Work's division for the month of August, 1992. He
reviewed each one of the listed projects in the monthly report,
in detail and answered questions.
COMMISSION ORALS
Chairman Archambault mentioned, in front of the Stockwell Drive
facility, on Imperial Highway at Stockwell Drive, there is a
parkway tree blocking a posted School Crossing sign.

I I
Mr. Oskoui stated, staff will check the site and evaluate the
condition and will take appropriate action to evaluate the
problem.
Commissioner Cunningham reminded the Commission that Councilman
Armando Rea, at the May 28, 1992, Traffic and Parking Commission
meeting, was present and suggested that, in the future, it would
be an advantage if a Parking Enforcement Officer would attend
each Traffic and Parking Commission meeting. The intent would be
to have an officer present, to address Parking Enforcement
complaints and discuss issues relating to parking enforcement
problems.
Lorry Torres, representing the Parking Enforcement Division, was
present and answered the Commission's questions regarding the
Parking Enforcement Program and the handling of the complaint's
process. She discussed with the Commission, the currently used
complaint processing system. Ms. Torres stated, at the present
time, complaints are manually handled. However, a new computer
system has recently been installed, in the future, will be fully
utilized to receive complaints and be used in the complaint
follow -up process.
ADJOURNMENT:
A motion was made by Commissioner Cunningham to adjourn the
meeting to August 27, 1992, at 6:00 p.m. of the Traffic and
Parking Commission in the City Council Chambers. Commissioner
Cabaret seconded the motion. It carried unanimously. The

DISABLED rr:RSONS ON- STREET PARKING IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS
INSTRUCTIONS
The City of Lynwood does not provide on- street parking for private
individuals. It must be emphasized that even "disabled parking
zones" do not constitute "Personal reserved parking," and, that
as person with valid "disabled persons" license plates (DP or
V Plates) may park in such stalls. Persons parking in such stalls
without valid DP or VT plates may be cited and towed away as
resolved by City Council Resolution No. 77 -89.
Normally, in establishing on- street parking facilities for the
disabled there shall be a reasonable determination made that the
facility will serve more than one disabled person and that the
need is of an on -going nature. The intent is to prevent the pro-
liferation of special parking stalls that may be installed for a
short -term purpose but later are seldom used. Unjustified
installation Of-such parking stalls unnecessarily increases the
City's maintenance and operations costs, reduces available on- street
parking for the general public and detracts from the overall
effectiveness of the disabled persons parking program.
However, exceptions may be made, in special hardship cases, provided
all of the'following conditions exist:
(1) applicant (or guardian) must be in Possession of valid license
le�a t__ es for 'disabled persons" or "disabled veterans" issued by ts
California Department of Motor vehicles oa the vehicle.
(2) The proposed disabled parking space must be in frost of the
disabled persons Place of residence.
(3) Subject residence must not have off - street parking available
or off-street space that maybe converted into disabled parking.
(4) Applicant must provide a signed statement from a medical doctor
that the disabled person is unable (even with the aid of crutches,
braces, walker, wheelchair or similar support) to travel more than
SO feet between his or her home and automobile without the
assistance of a second person.
(5) Applicant must pay an initial fee of $15.00 to cover the cost
Of field investigation, installation, maintenance and future removal.
(6) Applicant must pay an annual fee of $10.00, after the first
year, t0 cover the cost of yearly investigation to confirm the pre-
sent need for the handicapped parking zones.
Note: Please do not send check until after this application has
been reviewed by the Traffic and Parking Commission and approved
by the City.

L.A. County Cities
Receive $75 Million
in Proposition C
Local Return Monies
ities throughout Los Angeles
County received a big wind-
fall earl) in July when the
Los Angeles County Trans-
portation Commission distrib-
uted nearly $75 million in Proposi-
tion C local return monies. Begin-
ning with this disbursement, 20% of
Proposition C's approximately $400
million a year in sales taxes returns
directly to the countys 88 cities for
local transit - related improvements.
Disbursement follows a 2-year
court delay
While county voters approved the
U2 -cent sales tax measure in 1990,
a legal challenge delayed disburse-
ment of the funds for two years.
"LACTC commissioners took the
prudent approach and made the de-
cision last year to withhold spend-
ing of the Proposition C funds until
all the legal challenges had been ex-
hausted," LACTC Executive Direc-
tor Neil Peterson said at a press
conference to announce disburse-
ment of the funds. "Us Angeles
County cities now have a unique op-
portunity to implement innovative
transportation programs and solu-
tions the taxpayers have been
awaiting."
Each city decides how to spend
its share
The measure specifies that alloca-
tions be determined on a per capita
basis. The largest recipient, the City
of Los Angeles, received $30.15 mil-
lion. Next in line comes the City of
Long Beach with $3.7 million. A
combined total of $8 million went to
unincorporated areas throughout
Los Angeles County.
"Given today's economic conditions,
this money will help to create jobs
and make many long - awaited im-
provements," said Los Angeles
Mayor Tom Bradley.
Unlike money from Proposition A, a
previous transportation funding
measure approved by voters in
1980, Proposition C was designed to
allow cities greater latitude in de-
ciding how to spend the money.
Cities can fund projects from
ridesharing to rail
Local return allocations can be used
for ridesharing projects as well as
public transit, paratransit and re-
lated services. Cities can also use
the funds to increase safety and im-
prove road conditions by repairing
and maintaining streets subject to
heavy public transit usage.
Other city efforts that benefit both
buses and automobiles are eligible
for Proposition C local return fund-
ing. Such programs include Trans-
portation Systems Management
(TSM) projects like signal synchro-
nization, intersection improvements
and other transit - related traffic con-
trol measures.
"One of the reasons so many people
supported Proposition C was be-
cause it allows cities the freedom to
choose where best to spend the
money," said Claremont City Coun-
cil- member and League of Cities
President Judith Wright. After all,
city managers and those dealing
with the day -to -day operation of
running a city know best where
there is the greatest need.
With Proposition C checks in hand,
transportation planners and city
managers throughout the county
couldn't agree more. 0
